Only a talentless hack as Michael Bay was able to ruin such a good cartoon as "Transformers"

Rating: 1/10 (14 June 2010)

Could have used more of a story, more background, better acting, characterization etc. Even though the movie last 15 minutes, the key elements probably take up less then 5 minutes of its duration, meaning that it is empty. There is really nothing inside, I have no idea how it even manages to exist. It has explosions and Megan Fox as supposed merits and overtly bombastic, ridiculous music. I could sit there and complain about the characterization and plot development or rather the lack of it and some blatantly obvious flaws or stupidities rather but why should I? I was left with a couple of questions after seeing this. If the Transformers are like millions of years old why do they behave like 80's stereotypes from our planet? Where does the AllSpark come from, is the universe just full of all powerful machinery for no reason at all? Why does Megatron want to wipe out humans, I get a quest for power but isn't it like trying to wipe out a ants nest from his point of view? Humans shouldn't bother him, they are just pointless. This leads to another question as to why the Autobot's should bother helping humans, it like siding with ants. It seems like looking like a particular car is just a personal preference for them and not an obligation, why look like a car, disguise, fun,.? If it is a disguise, they should avoid more appearing like giant robots and a car whiteout a driver is obvious and is it really the fastest and best mode of transport in the whole of the galaxy or even on this planet, guy who turns into a F-22 makes more sense to me etc. Is this because I am unfamiliar with the cartoon? I do remember having a doll of Optimus Prime when I was very, little. It is still a lot better then the abomination that Pearl Harbor was or the intense stupidity of Armageddon because Michael Bay stopped concerning himself with humans, meaning that he makes no effort anymore to give anyone a personality, motivations, back story or anything, most humans in this movie appear to be about as human as a piece of cardboard with a cue card on it. This is a good thing because his efforts, dialogs, back stories and etc. are frankly just nauseating. 0/10
