Average Action Film

Rating: 5/10 (9 August 2007)

The biggest movie of the summer? I hope not. I was a huge Transformers fan as a kid in the 80s and was looking forward to this film, unfortunately it doesn't deliver at all. There is no plot, no script, very bad dialogue and poor humour throughout.
A little more effort on the script and this could have been the movie of 2007. I think they blew the entire budget on special effects.
Saving graces are the special effects and the action scenes. If you want to see Transformers done properly buy the 1980s animated movie. Parents be wary, although this film has a low rating there's no way i'd let kids under 12 see this film, it contains a largely adult themes.
I went to see the film with 4 friends, they all enjoyed the film a lot and reading the other comments and the IMDb rating it seems i'm in the minority on this but I really think this film failed to deliver.
Lets hope like with Star Wars the sequel turns out better....
