Transformers The Reviews Thread

coolness.

set my mind at ease for me. I know from the reviews that Optimus is great, bay pulls out all his tricks and thensome, Shia delivers, but from that one clip I saw in the car Megan probably should have stayed on that tv show and doing teeny bopper flicks with Lohan.

Does she do anything, ANYTHING, at all that could be considered impressive acting wise?

Ehm IMO ....NO :csad:
She's just there for eye candy. There is a scene where she breaks down thinking all hope is lost. But then gets back up ,and and gives the "I'll drive you shoot " line to Bumblee.
By no means terrible but nothing amazing in terms of acting
 
OMG, I get to see the movie tonight! We just got the Transformers prints in today at work!

w00t!!..

I'm glad to hear such great things about the score. I'm personally in love with the piece that played during OP's transformation in the MTV clip (was it used in the film? It sounds a good them for him, if not all Autobots).
 
Well, I'm fairly stoked.... and prepared. For a long time I had wanted this movie to be a deep, serious, sci-fi movie, but with lots of robot action (think something like Aliens).... with something to say. I think I'm OK with it not being that... but rather just a lot of eye-candy. Than can be fun too.

The score is fantastic/epic/perfect, very well used in the scenes when they introduce the Autobots. It's pretty much similar with other Bay movies.

Once I have seen it again and calmed down I think I might be a little more critical, I can definatly see the Negatron thread firing up again, but its still a fun movie to watch with a lot of G1 references. I am still surprised at how much dialog the auto's get.
 
does anyone say "We're gonna need a bigger bot." ?

Sounds like Optimus and Shia seem to carry the movie. I for one think I'm going JUST to hear and see Optimus Prime do his thing. What'd you think about the plot? NOBODY seems to be saying much about it. I mean, is it interesting? Does it have something to say?... or is it just filler to piece the action sequences together?
 
The plot itself is paperthin. Don't expect something like Pirates Of The Carribean type of mythology or some plot like say Children Of Men.

It simply comes down to this :
GIANT F...CKIN ROBOTS coming to earth to kick some ass.

That's what ( i think) many people want and that's what you're going to get :woot:

Lol I didn't even think about the plot, it was just more of a race to get the allspark as far as the TF side of things go. The human side was to find out about the NBE's or TF's and figure out what they are doing here.
 
yeah do we see the big metal planet?

edit: details! details!!! or die insignificant human!
 
Hey does Frenzy speak? He doesn't sound like Soundwave does he? I was kinda worried about that (being that he was suppossed to originaly be Soundwave). Is he referred to as Frenzy?
 
OKay
The shot that we get of Cybertron , is with a Optimus Voice Over. He talks about Cybertron and how one of his betrayed him.
The camera zooms out ,and it's pretty much a living planet. Not with robots and what not but you can see technological growth over the planet.
And i think it was also ravaged by war because the camera zoms out with a shot of Megatron laughing. It is the first real shot that we see of Megatron in movement.
