| | Posted: | | | | The Special FX are awesome, but I really are starting to get used to that. The characters and the movie itself has 0% depth. Since I work in a theater I am glad that I did not had to pay any money to watch this big commercial for merchandise and other products. | | | Martin Zuidervliet

The movie is what is... and for me it was entertaining. Well that it was indeed... It's a pop corn movie, the VFX were indeed very good, but waht Martin said, starting to get used to it. I really liked Megan Fox and Rachael Taylor   Yesterday I saw `Death Proof`, I really enjoyed that one... | | | | Jean-Paul |

Still not interested. I'm waiting for the new 'Harry Potter' among others. I'm with you; not at all interested. Not only does it destroy something I really enjoyed from my childhood but it looks cheesy, plotless and therefore pointless. Besides, Optimus shouldn't look like a pimped-out Freightliner. | | | | I was wise once; when I was born, I cried - Welsh proverb |

| | Posted: | | | | Just saw it, and I loved it. My 13-year-old son totally loved it - every time I glanced over at him, he had this HUGE smile on his face.
The plot was what you'd expect. Humans were dragged into a conflict between two waring robot "clans". Not much need for a plot there - and they did good with what they had to work with.
The special effects were top notch and there was a fair amount of actual good comedy - I laughed out loud quite a few times. It was enough to even forgive the "It must be Japanese" comment. |

Besides, Optimus shouldn't look like a pimped-out Freightliner. All sooooooo true! I heard/read something that it might be possible that they want to make a He-man movie, a new one (a better one). I think it'll be the same as with Transformers... it is not as you would remember. I am actually looking forward to the next `Harry Potter`, and `Planet Terror` too... | | | | Jean-Paul |

| | Posted: | | | | Hopefully not a spoiler but they assumed their shapes by scanning vehicles. Optimus happened to scan a pimped out Freightliner. Or at least I think he did, the semi in question was only in view for a half second. |
