Bonus for being a Transformers movie?

Rating: 4/10 (20 November 2007)

This was one of the movies where I had no problems going to the rest room and buying another coke while the movie was still running. Sure, the special effects were top notch but I can really not understand why the overall ranking is so high. The story is OK but not really brilliant. The characters are likable but not really bright. The comedy was pretty average and didn't make me give it more than a gentle smile here and there. And when the big show down came it made me almost wish the bad guys would win because the good guys were so lame and stupid. I'm not angry I paid money for it, there are worse things to waste an evening with but I really have to shake my head at the ranking here...
