Spectacular action scenes more than impress.

Rating: 6/10 (22 June 2009)

I would like to start off by saying that this was an extremely entertaining movie. The action was intense and it literally kept me on the edge of my seat with my jaw grating the floor! The CGI effects are incredible and really blend in well with the live action elements, very seamless.
The story line is OK, far from spectacular. A lot of people are complaining about how believable it is, but the movie is about a race of alien robots who disguise themselves as vehicles! Come on!!! It has some very funny moments, the twins Skids + Mudflaps for example, along with the Witwicky parents add that comical element to the movie. Shia & Megan do a good job with some solid performance's and they really pull off a convincing relationship in the movie.
The main problem with this film is that it is very long and I think they could have at cut out at least 30 minutes from this movie. A few of the scenes do not add anything to the film and left me thinking 'wtf was that about? Also, it is easy to lose track of all the autobots/decepticons, especially nearer the end when a load of them appear from nowhere! All in all, a spectacular action movie with incredible CGI. Good Stuff. 9/10
