Eye-popping Special Effects in overlong but entertaining film

Rating: Null/10 (5 February 2009)

I enjoyed this film a great deal despite the plot loopholes and over length. Michael Bay has delivered his most popcorn-friendly movie to date! There's a lot of action and the Special Effects, specially in the last thirty minutes, have to be seen to be believed. There are some comic moments, notably when the Autobots are hiding from Shia's family. The acting is alright though Jon Voight appears slightly embarrassed as the Defence Secretary. Megan Fox looks too old to still be in school but provides the requisite amount of glamor. A tighter plot would have made this more impressive but the film remains a lot of fun.
Overall 7/10
