May 12, 2009"Tranformers" delivers great popcorn entertainment & spectacular visual effects by ILM with a great story and a wonderful cast behind it all.

June 27, 2009Hindsight is a funny thing. On my second watch of Transformers I was inexplicably bored. All the flaws simply jumped out and slapped me in the face. Perhaps it's like junk food. You eat it, it tastes good. If you sit down and read the ingredients, it starts to make you sick. Mega... ...( read more )

June 23, 2009Le grande roquefort of all character names and dialogue can't lower this film from truly great fun.
The CG rendering is quite superb. The characters interact perfectly with the environment and this is one of the few movies where I'm actually convinced that the they seem real. -
May 23, 2009I didnot see all of the film, but from what I saw I was very impressed by the CGi and the acting.

May 8, 2009I've watched this movie three times. The first time, I enjoyed it, because it made me nostalgic for my childhood. The second time, not so much, but the effects made up for it. The third time made me realize what a piece of shit this film really is. Nothing makes sense. Chara... ...( read more )

Too bad the filmmakers don't let these bots take over the spectacle. full review

It's the toys 'r us in this awesome sci-fi blockbuster. It's bound to produce several inferior sequels but the pure joy of discovery from this kick-ass original is not-to-be-missed. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
It's a gearhead's dream come true, with cool robots, hot girls, big explosions and broad jokes. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
In this tricked-out retake on the much-loved contraptions, director Michael Bay brings his usual chest-thumping, combustive bombast, but he also brings some clever pacing and a genuinely snappy wit. I... full review

Taken for what it is, a crowd-rousing summer blockbuster inspired by a children's mechanical toy, Michael Bay's Transformers is some kind of mess...terpiece. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
It's goofy fun with a lot of stuff that blows up real good, and it has the grace not only to realize how preposterous it is, but to make that into an asset. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Though it's at least 20 minutes too long and uneven dramatically, the acting is sharp, and it features some of the most spectacular action and effects sequences of any movie of its kind. full review

Anthony Lane, The New Yorker
Bay's movie is the grandest proof so far that, when it comes to movie characterization, flesh and blood have had their chance. From here on, it's up to metal and plastic. full review

February 21, 2009One of few movies that will urge one to view it over...and over...and over again. The storyline embellish possible documentary into sci-fi without loosing any shde of reality.If I were 13 I would join the fanclub to get more perks. Wonderful effects propelled by an excellent storyline as well as a great comming of age experience, A positive message to youth as well as parents. At least 3 thumbs (!!!) up!

February 18, 2009I just can't wait till the next part comes out! It'll be funny if my sister, my friends and I are the only girls that didn't get dragged there by their boyfriends again. We were the only ones last time. It was quite funny. ^^

August 11, 2008This could have been a better movie, but for some reason, Hollywood thinks that they have to 'dumb down' their movies for the kids; this pisses me off, it insults my intelligence. They need to bring the kids up to adult levels and thus making them smarter and making a better human being.
The effects were great, but the stupid little robot just pissed me off. Aren't they supposed to be a higher intelligence?
Take care all,
William
