Ignore The Critics & Arrogant Haters...

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2009)

First of all I have no idea where people get the idea that they know everything about movies and the movie business. They need to stick to their day time jobs and shut up.
I found this movie the most entertaining ACTION movie in years....probably since the first one. Notice how I typed "ACTION" and not "MOVIE" which can mean all kinds of genres.
I think people need to go back to school...or most likely..Kindergarten because saying a movie has no plot is ridiculous. The story makes sense to me and I am 18 years old. It's pretty sad when a grown adult says a film that is Produced and Directed by a COLLEGE GRADUATE with a BACHELORS DEGREE has no plot/story.
This movie has a wonderful moral, but one that needs to be found by the viewer. The relationship Sam has with his parents brought tears to my eyes because it happens all around the world. So the film has great emotion.
The comedy is hilarious. I've seen it 3 times (twice in IMAX) and everybody laughed at the parts they were suppose to. Michael Bay knows how to entertain.
The whole thing with the Twins being racist is the most arrogant thing I have ever heard. The Twins brought great comedy and they're not in there that long anyways so I can't understand why people are being so "appalled" by them. It's ridiculous.
The acting is better than most movies released in todays society. If someone says "this movie has a lot more emotion this time around" but says the acting is bad needs to be slapped. A movie having emotion with bad acting doesn't make sense.
I've read comments that the movie is just about explosions and beautiful girls. One comment on here says she is "appalled" because of it. Give me a break. What do you want to see in a movie...a bunch of ugly girls? No way. That is a real killer to the audience. Beautiful girls in films makes it more interesting and guys have the right to think they're sexy on the big screen and get excited. When you watch an action film like Transformers you need to walk out happy and satisfied, not mad and disgusted from watching ugly girls for 2.5 hours.
The score is beautiful. I bought it and it's inspiring. Linkin Park also did an amazing job at developing the theme for the movie with "New Divide", which I might add hit number one on Itunes in less than 24 hours. Buy the score, it is fantastic, especially if you're an artist.
As for the action...MIND BLOWING. This film contains the most epic action sequences ever done. Every time I watch the TV spots or even the movie I get pumped and feel like wrestling. That's how much adrenaline it pumps inside me. I am a filmmaker myself and after watching this It inspires me to aim higher in life and make my next film better. My favorite action scene is the first part of the movie in Shanghai. Watch it for yourself and you will see why...it feels and looks real, and that's what makes it exciting.
Michael Bay is one of my idols and this is a great example why. He knows how to entertain and notice how all of his films entertain people. He's the King of Action Movies and always will be. Box office does determine how good a movie is because if it's so bad why are people SPENDING MONEY to see it? I bet if you went around and interviewed 200 TEENAGERS (not adults from cavemen years) and asked them if they liked this...most will say "yes." If you like it, KEEP SEEING IT. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise.
And if you haven't seen it but are unsure, see it anyways, it's not going to kill you. Who knows, you might even enjoy it.
