Transformer the movie.

i thought it was a bit shite, but the perfect movie if you've just had a lobotomy.
The directing was appalling, the script was just as bad, the acting piss poor and the role i.e. acting of and script for the government guy was just utterly retarded.

As for the transformers themselves, starscream barely got a look in and hotrod was nowhere to be found and why did megatron not turn into a huge feckoff gun? Instead you had to put up with bumblebee for 144minutes and bumblebee has always been the gheyest of them all.

Should have made it an 18 and made it badass

Films directed by Michael Bay are usually like being shouted at by a halfwit for two and a half hours, and Transformers is no exception.

Way to rain on our parade ilw...

I thought this movie was one of the greatest blockbusters of our generation. Sure the acting sucked, some of the finer plot points were strange, but it's based on a cartoon that's based on an action figure, and with those origins it kicked ass.

I shed a tear when Optimus first spoke and I realized it was the same voice that he has had since the '80s. And when Megatron said "You failed me again, Starscream", oh shit that was cool.

Any person who has enjoyed any facet of the Transformers product should go out right now and experience this film. It's amazing.

Michael Bay is a bit like Uwe Boll, hilarious when you don't care about the source material, but fucking annoying when he's let loose on something you used to like.

I loved Transformers....bumblebee was much cooler than the stupid beetle in the cartoons.

I loved this movie. Also, cool how all American cars were made into this movie (GM cars, specifically). Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are my favorites.

It was pretty good and better than superhero movies as you say. Liked it more than Spiderman

it was enjoyable. one of the movies that at least i can say i saw once, and then have no urge to really see it again.

This movie didn't do anything for me. I found it trite and predicatble.

Transformers sucked. All the bad dialog made the hair on my neck stand up. I was laughing my ass off when that soldier told Shia LaBeouf, You're a soldier now son. My favourite part was when Anthony Anderson and the British chick were in the interrogation room and he eats all the donuts to throw them off.
