Transformers.

A while back Shannaz said he could not wait for this movie to come out.

That was last year.

Now it's here and it's every bit worth the wait.

I was planning to write a review for it, until I read the review on Dark Horizons and realized it said everything i had wanted to say and said it better.

In a nutshell.

Fuckin Awesome.


It does what it sets out to do and does it RIGHT. DAMN RIGHT even. The action sequences are all brilliantly executed, with jaw-dropping special effects and the trademark Michael Bay shaky camera. The final fight between PRIME and MEGATRON is immensely satisfying. It's a roller coaster ride with just the right amount of nostalgia and modern day relevance.

This is a reimagining done right. It might not be perfect, as whatever sorry excuse it has for a script is light as a feather, and filled with plot holes to boot. But I'll be damed if those flaws make giant robot mechs crashing through skyscrapers, firing missiles and shockwaves, and beating the hell out of each other any less fun.

My only gripe is the ending, which is too deus-ex machina for my liking. It is also incredibly anti-climatic, and, as movies these days are, leaves the plot open for sequels.

Sure enough, 2 more Transformer Movies have been signed, according to wikipedia. I can't wait. Bring it on.

Go PRIME!
