    First Time I Paid to See a GMC Car Commercial

    I can't believe I actually paid $21.50 for two adults to see this lame movie...which really was a two and half hour long GMC car commercial. The plot and action in the movie could have been resolved in less than an hour but yet it dragged on for over twice that amount of time. I guess GMC probably negotiated a certain amount of face time for their product logo GMC appearing front in center on the movie screen, so the director probably had to stretch out the already thin material he had for the story line. Even with the special effects you could still tell the robots were computer generated. If you've seen the GMC/Transformers car commercial on TV then you've already seen this movie...save your cash.

    w00t!

    This movie was AWESOME! Even for someone like me, who has never watched anything Transformers! You won't get lost in the story as long as you pay attention to the movie. I would definitely NOT mind seeing this movie again and again!!! The graphics were totally real but the camera angles were somewhat dizzying when they transform. But for me, this movie still gets 5 stars!!! GO SEE IT!

    AWESOME

    I didn't think I would like it. I used to watch the Transformers cartoon as a kid, so I went to go see the movie with my boyfriend and I loved it! It has some of that adult humor that everyone loves. And awesome graphics.

    About Time!

    Great all-around family movie. Even my 10 month old daughter loved it! Some of the drama between the two leading actors was a bit hokey, but the transformers and action between them really made up for it.

    I have to say, Shia Lebouf is really making his way up in the acting community.

    THE movie for Gen-X, Gen-Y men

    I was not looking forward to seeing this movie. I thought my husband was a big nerd for wanting to see something that had been a cartoon when we were kids. However, I LOVED this movie. Shia LeBeouf does an excellent job at being angsty while also being an action hero. The special effects are breathtaking and the storyline is engaging. My husband saw it again on IMAX and said it was so much better, so if you have the opportunity, see it on IMAX-better visuals and sound.

    Transformers

    by rcordas

    Ok, I know this movie is based on a cartoon that really was a 30 minute comercial for the Hasboro toys that are now going for 500 bucks on E-bay. But 100-200 million spent on this thing and they couldn't come up wit a better script?Things have gotten a little more complicated for the genreation that grew up on Trnasformers and you'd think they's take that in to account. The awe spark? Some cube with the power to help Megatron destroy humanity? Are you kidding me? I would have more respect if they'd have called this a kids movieand gone with the simple Autobots = good, Deceptacons = bad equation. But that wouldn't work so we've got to sit through this convoluted plot which drags the movie out to long, becuase instead of toys they're trying to sell cars (Chevy cars in particular, which may be too much even for Optimus Prime), and kids don't buy cars, but the adults do. Especially adults who have a nostalgic memories of having to watch transfirmers everyday even if it was a repeat .

    The movie was terrific! It had action, suspense, and was exciting, and thrilling. I loved it! It just had so much, it had humor, and even a little romance.I liked that it was a family kind of movie.

    Why does Michael Bay Get to Keep On Making Movies?!

    I thought this was an entertaining but too long of a movie based on an eighties toy. The only saving grace was Shia LaBeouf;s performance who did an amazing job despite dealing with a script that must have been written by a child while they were playing with their own Megatron and Optimus Prime action figures. The dialogue was laughable and had more cheese than substance. I found myself laughing more throughout this film than I would if I had seen License To Wed. Of course if you watch this film alongside Pearl Harbor, Armageddon, The Island and every other over the top action movie Michael Bay has somehow been funded to make; you will find the same thing: an endless amount of scenes with helicopters, control rooms, explosions, product placement and people running. When you really look at them, they are all the same movie with a different title. I'm sick of hearing how amazing the special effects were in all these crap movies.That is not a reason for a film to be made or be see

    Surprisingly Good!

    I was expecting just another empty-headed CGI-fest. To my delight there was an actual storyline, and Shia Lebouf was more than just a garnish. His character and acting added some human dimension and humor to the film which could have easily turned into a rehash of mindless entertainment which we have seen before (ie. Spiderman III). Kudos to the special effects department for wowing us when we thought we'd seen it all. All in all, a great night at the movies, especially for the '80s holdouts who want a bit of nostalgia.

    Best Movie Ever Made

    This movie in my eyes was flawless. Great plot line and awesome graphics. The personalities of the characters weren't changed in the slightest. The original voice of optimus prime was a nice touch. I can never look at cars the same way again. This movie had a great mix of comedy,action,drama, and romance.Not over done or under cooked. Kept you hanging on to your seat waiting for the next thing to happen. I suggest every one go see this movie.
