Like and dislike about Transformers the movie

What did you like and dislike about the movie?

Oh no..... You did not just go THERE...!!!! 😘

😛

I liked how it was marely just an action movie with personalities that have appeared in my childhood at some point.

(Pity they screwed those personalities up almost totally though.)

So that leaves us with it just being an action movie, then. 😛

Stuff went boom in the movie, that made me happy.

That was good. The boom.

Yes. Even concrete that had no business exploding exploded in that movie.

For it was a movie of Bay.

And that's all I expected from the movie.

I thought Megan Fox had no place in the movie. Sure she was total eye candy, but if you seriously wanted to make a good movie, theres no place for characters that serve no purpose.

There was a scene that was cut out from the movie. It was during the brief conversation between megatron and starscream after Megatron escapes the compound. The scene that was cut out was Megatron dissing Starscream for failing. I think it was cut out due to time restraints. It would have been nice if it was included though since theres always been a rivalry between the two in the cartoons.

I found that the physics displayed by the transformers was phenomenally accurate - that was very well done.

Most of the movie was shown from the perspective of Shia and the Autobots. Giving some more screen time to the Decepticons would have been nice.

I particularly liked the scene where the Decepticons mobilised. That was quite cool. Starscream was definately the coolest Decepticon in the movie for me.

Ok, finally, one thing I really didnt like was how Bumblebee was able to transform into a newer model. He should'nt have been able to do that. If he could, then theoretically theres nothing to stop him transforming into anything else, which isnt right.

Overall though, I found the movie pretty good.

Yeah, the trans-scanning was alot more frequent for Bumblebee.

Great points generally, however, I thought the physics weren't that great.

The mass-shifting cube kinda screwed that up.

(Along with the firey exploding concrete when Megatron knocks Sam off of the ledge... Concrete doesn't do that.

...AND Frenzy's magic regenerating body...

...AND the afformentioned 'Autobots being able to morph' rubbish too...

....AND those old roofs supposedly supporting Prime's galloping weight as he chases to rescue Sam...)

I expected more as the Transformers name was on it.

Had it been Go-bots I wouldn't have cared less.

Hahaha, a Go-Bot movie!

Had they taken out John Turturro's character and toned down the love interest between Shia Lebeouf and megan fox. The movie would have been MUCH better and would have felt a little less childish.

I know, John Turturro's rolse is always welcomed, but that role just seemed out of place and overall wacky...

Agreed. Hes usually great but he in this case evidently thought this was the Goonies and that he was one of Ma's boys. 🙁

But he was impaired by having a director that doesn't know what humans are. (or tfs for that matter)

Ahaha, he probably thinks that made his career.

Made it a near laughing stock, maybe..... 😖hifty:
Fortunately, everyone is allowed to screw the pooch at least once. (Not literally though, you depraved bunch..)

I actually have high hopes for the sequel, even though it won't be Transformers and capture the what it means to depict Transformers, I'm glad all the origin stuff is out of the way.

I might wait for it to rent on dvd or something. I refuse to pay cinema rates for any Bay's shit, as a matter of principle.
