Real Transformers!!

Rating: 7/10 (2 July 2009)

This story opened with the Military and Autobots working together to fight the remaining Decepticons on Earth. The special effects in the Shanghai sequence are spectacular. The story rolls on and into Sam's personal life and is entertaining and funny. Bumblebee is once again a scene stealer. Sam's involvement in the Transformer's plight was carefully orchestrated and interesting. The only problem is, from where Sam leaves home it becomes a real Transformers story and those who are not hard core Transformers fans will complain. It transcends into an almost cartoon type story and I loved it, the entire background story, the Fallen and the history. The Constructicons and Devastator were amazing. The special effects are truly incredible. The story is a bit long and hard to take in at a first watch but it is a true Transformers story and should be given the thumbs up for giving us a much less a human story than the last one. I can't wait for the third!
