What a strange movie......

Rating: 4/10 (23 July 2009)

This is a strange movie.
As with all big summer blockbuster action movies, plot and dialog are pretty poor. But, this does not always mean failure for these movies. If you went in and were entertained and thrilled for a few hours, job done. But this movie never really does anything, even bordering on boring for large sections of the film.
There a few high points and I'm sure even the people hell bent on trashing the movie would have enjoyed. But, they are few and far between. The rest of the movie is so poor, you quickly forget what you did enjoy.
The Transformers themselves are just odd in this movie. The dialog and voice acting is just strange. It makes you not like them much at all. The fights are done well, but too short and with too much time between them.
This movie was poor and it may be time to take the franchise in a new direction.
