Great live action film for all time and new comer fans alike.

Rating: Null/10 (14 November 2007)

I remember Transformers being a big series back in the 90s. I wasn't a huge fan of it, but I remember the cartoon being a cool franchise which still is today.
I first heard of this movie as far back as 2005. And found it to be cool for a new live action movie being made for the first time ever for the Transformers series. Even though I was entirely familiar with the series background, I read some history and story lines on the internet before seeing the big picture.
Eons ago on the planet Cybertron, lived a population of different life forms. Machines that have advanced into intelligent beings and formed a community on the hi-tech planet. Two sides were made: Autobots & Decepticons. The Autobots want peace and prosperity. While the Decepticons want communism and terror. Despite both sides thinking differently, they start their own war. One day a cube which is said to be the source of all their power went crashing on Earth. And it won't be found until a certain "Day of Awakening" occurs when either sides try to get their hands on the cube first.
And it was cool, every thing to make this movie a reality was more than amazing. With today's special effects, creating the robots in a live action film is accomplish-able and would of been impossible to do a decade ago. Every big franchise gets a movie like this one. And it was about time Transformers gets revised with a blockbuster hit.
There wasn't anything disappointing or boring about the movie in my opinion. Just a lot of the screen time is spent by the secondary characters than the robots themselves. A few changes made for the movie for obvious reasons. Including making both the Autobots and Decepticons look more machine like than their cartoon appearances. And there's so much detail when you look at them in the movie. I'm not an expert in cars, but I do find the transforming sequences to be believable.
Overrall this movie should please both the old time and new comer fans of the series. And it's going to get it's own sequel which is being predicted to be bigger than this one itself.
