Transformers Movie Review: Optimus Prime was Robbed!

“Stay away, lad! That’s Prime’s fight!” — Kup, in the original 1986 Transformers animated movie. I just watched Michael Bay’s Transformers movie at the Gateway Globe Platinum Theater. Believe it or not, it’s even more of an abomination than everyone expected it to be — from jumpy editing to fake graphics to gibberish computerspeak to […]Click here to continue reading "Transformers Movie Review: Optimus Prime was Robbed!"...

    What a disappointment. I have no idea which movie everyone else saw but this movie sucked, big time!. The movie had no direction for a story line. It seemed that they had multiple versions on the go and cut into one final movie and hoped that it worked. And as for the continuity from scene to scene, well that’s another issue in itself. One moment Sam’s wearing his hoodie, the next it’s over his shoulder. Another memorable scene, donut boy, eats all the donuts, then there is one donut, then there is crumb. Where the f£$% was the gaffer? And can someone explain why they made that Sector 7 guy take off his clothes, and why they took his badge? In most Hollywood movies people disguise themselves when they take someone’s identity cards.

    The design staying true to original design blah, blah, ILM’s design was great. That was the best part of the movie. But as for character development, where was it. The death of Jazz had no emotional meaning, it just happened. The only character that was developed or who had an impact on where the story was going was Frenzie. Other than him the rest were just there, especially the Autobots.

    I hope the sequel is better!!!

    Is this a joke? Boohoo: u care about Sam’s hoodie? are u one of those people (who’s guts i despise btw, so I hope ur not) who goes into any situation, be it a new book, movie, play wtv, not only expecting the worst possible outcome but actively searching for all the faults and thereby completely overlooking the successes? Why they made the sector 7 guy take off his clothes? that impacted the movie for like 2 minutes, was quite funny as it was John Torturo (dont call me out on spelling instead of my arguments i know i probably got his name wrong) who was hilarious in his role. Mike: how big is the stick that was shoved up your ass? when you were little, did u not have any human friends, causing u to be the first critic (and i use the term critic loosely) i have ever read who criticizes humans for being wimpy and insignificant and an “alien” third party? im sorry but last time i checked this was a struggle for earth’s survival and im pretty sure on earth we humans are not the alien entity. I too was hoping for a great prime vs. megatron duel, but i also felt it appropriate that the fate of the human world was ultimately decided by a human who had bridged the gap between humans and aliens in his close friendship with bumblebee in particular. So stop whining about the movie, go home and fire up the old transformers on VHS. then, go have the stick thats up your ass surgically removed (since its so far up there that pulling it out might really hurt) and watch the movie again. then, if you still feel betrayed by the film, go fly to cybertron in your little imaginary spaceship.

    In case you didn’t notice, that snotty human kid also decided the fate of the Transformers themselves.
