Amazon.com: "I bought a car. Turned out to be an alien robot. Who knew?" deadpans Sam Witwicky, hero and human heart of Michael Bay's rollicking robot-smackdown fest, Transformers. Witwicky (the sweetly nerdy Shia LaBeouf, channeling a young John Cusack) is the perfect counterpoint to the nearly nonstop exhilarating action. The plot is simple: an alien civil war (the Autobots vs. the evil Decepticons) has spilled onto Earth, and young Sam is caught in the fray by his newly purchased souped-up Camaro. Which has a mind--and identity, as a noble-warrior robot named Bumblebee--of its own. The effects, especially the mind-blowing transformations of the robots into their earthly forms and back again, are stellar.
Fans of the earlier film and TV series will be thrilled at this cutting-edge incarnation, but this version should please all fans of high-adrenaline action. Director Bay gleefully salts the movie with homages to pop-culture touchstones like Raiders of the Lost Ark, King Kong, and the early technothriller WarGames. The actors, though clearly all supporting those kickass robots, are uniformly on-target, including the dashing Josh Duhamel as a U.S. Army sergeant fighting an enemy he never anticipated; Jon Voight, as a tough yet sympathetic Secretary of Defense in over his head; and John Turturro, whose special agent manages to be confidently unctuous, even stripped to his undies. But the film belongs to Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, and the dastardly Megatron--and the wicked stunts they collide in all over the globe. Long live Transformers! --A.T. Hurley

If you have kids, they'll love it! Giant robots that are so detailed they look like towering piles of junk. It's quite a feast for the eyes too, with different locales like Egypt, the Smithsonian museum, and all of the expensive military play toys (battleships, tanks, aircraft carriers, flying predator drones and so on).
As for the movie itself, it's watchable at best and I'm a fan of Transformers. Basically this movie is one awkward moment after another. Like someone does something ... Read More

Transformers was always my favorite cartoon growing up as a child. Whenever it was on I'd plop myself down in front of the TV screen and watched for hours on end. Now, being an adult and going to college I've always missed watching that show. But lucky enough for me, they made a movie of it. This movie was probably one of the most well thought out and most well made films I have seen in a long time (even the sequel was good which is such a shocker.) It made me want to see more ideas from the ... Read More

One of my very favorite movies. I loved it as soon as i saw it. i have no idea what those people who voted 1 or 2 stars are talking about. Just a great movie and even better on BluRay. Good effects, great sound, and just enough laughs to make it a comedy. There are days i can just stay home and watch this, and i'd have a successful night.
