    The first 10 minutes was AWESOME – one of the best openings of any movie ever. But things went downhill after that.

    Do we really need a token romance thrown into the movie? Can’t they just make Megan Fox tag along rather than having to invest time into some stupid long drawn out love interest back story that distracts from the main movie? Hello? This is not maid in manhattan or sleepless in seattle! Other time wasters include the family scenes, the chihua hua scenes and that doughnut eating idiot who supposedly can crack top secret codes but in the end contributed zip. I wish they’d do away with all these lame attempts at comic/romantic relief because they just aren’t funny nor romantic.

    While the effects were good, it would have been better if they went easy with the jerky editing. hard to tell what is going on because they kept jumping angles and you can’t really see the transformation clearly – it’s too fast and everything looks like a blur.

    Get with the times fools…of course it’s gunna be like it is too suit the audience and make money. Get over it, and remember…they are probably setting it up for a trilogy cos my god…they will make BILLIONS! So don’t worry, megatron will be back, and Optimus will f**k him up

    We’re not talking about hypothetical sequel wishlists. We’re talking about this movie, and this movie sucks.

    Mike Abundo sucks harder.
