i saw this movie the other night, and i have mixed reviews about it. i enjoyed transformers when i was young, so when i first heard about this project, i threw my arms up in disgust thinking this would be an overplayed CGI effect movie trying to sell graphics and blood.
after watching this movie, the bad news is that imo, the script was poorly written, the plot line was meek (the usual for most action movies), too many overplayed clichés being said by most of the characters, and a blatant marketing attempt by Chevy to promote their line of 2008 cars. the good news is that it was an enjoyable of almost 2 1/2 hours of pure robot fun, people running around, and the fight scene at the end was pretty good. |
Agree completely.
My friend and I were spotting the scenes/ideas that appeared to be ripped off from other movies (the matrix, con air, Men In Black) like seriously where was the originality in this flick?
Definitely lots of Michael Bay + Steven Spielberg action as expected so if you want mindless action then it's great. Just don't expect any more.
The finding the cube plot was just ridiculase! Along with some other moments. The CGI transformations for the most part were smooth (like in the air transformation into planes).
Peter Cullen's voice is still as great as ever, brought back so many memories from the opening Prime intro. Too bad Frank Welker didn't do Megatron but Hugo Weaving did well.
Of course Megan Fox helped keep me interested also 
Oh and the soundtrack suited the action well. Ain't no Stan Bush but served its purpose well.
