An awful movie from the generation that grew up with Transformers 1

Rating: 1/10 (20 October 2007)

The generation that grew up with the first Transformers movie comes back with an awful version. The watergate babies truly are the least creative generation. Maybe the high school comedy was too long. Maybe the robots were too detailed to watch. There are no heroine transformers, unlike the 1986 movie.
The shaky camera, home video look is hard to follow, but it's all in a day's work for a generation which grew up with hand held home videos. The human heroine is pretty independent, never depending on the men 2 save her, although she depends on the autobots.
The dialog in the 1986 movie was preposterous and out there, but it made it interesting. The new dialog just fits in and is boring. Except for Optimus Prime, the voices were disappointing. The original Megatron, Starscream, and Bumblebee voices are gone. The new voices are indistinguishable, just fitting in again.
At least John Voight got 2 B the good guy for a change.
