I don't care about guns that aren't appropriate... or idiots that walk with their guns pointed up in the air with their fingers on the trigger..... lol..... this was an awesome - shoot 'em' up, tear 'em' up.... good guys win.... sacrifice, and strength.... balls to the wall movie...
LOVED IT!!!

I really liked it too. I watched it without any expectations and it was a good action flick that reminded me of my childhood :)

It's getting awful reviews. Ebert usually can enjoy a popcorn flick for what it is, but he hated it. I can't believe it's 2.5 hours long. I'm thinking I may just wait and rent the blu-ray.

I wanted to love it, but I had issues. The twins ANNOYED THE HELL out of me, and Devastator had balls. What was up with all the humping?
I grew up with Transformers, I still have all my toys, I even have every episode of the original series on TV. I am beginning to hate Michael Bay.
Yes, it was entertaining, but it would have been so much better without some of the "humor". groovyone added 3 Minutes and 0 Seconds later...Double Post Merged Below Quote:

I really wish I hadn't taking the kids to see it. But that was my bad. | | | |

Literally at one point stupid Devastator | I didn't grow up with a Transformers fetish... however I was married to someone who did.... I've seen the movie (cartoon) over and over... I own the Transformers Movie Soundtrack.... the original cartoon one... I enjoy the story.
I agree with you about the twins - they were rather stupid, and I didn't really feel they added anything to it....

Yeah... see... Jar Jar Binks didn't bother me... I thought he was kind of cute... in a stupid humor sort of way... I read all about all the 'sterotyping' and 'racial' stuff.... and seriously.... some people WAY over think things....

sorry...gonna have to disagree with the TS.
This was horrible, it was atrocious. I won't go into all the problems IMO as I don't want to post spoilers to anyone who wants to see it, but goodness it was miserable. | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
