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!"...

    well said Hooligan. Would you like me to translate for you Mike or are you gonna break out the free babel fish translator?

    Anyway I have my quibbles over the film as well (Peter Cullen’s line’s were cheesy, Jazz was sorely underused, etc.) but i left the cinema feeling happy. You have to consider that this is the first movie of a frickin’ franchise and it will suffer from a condensed storyline.

    Take a chill pill and eat some brownies.

    Mike,

    Go back to flipping burgers at Mcdonalds and stop posting about things you do not know of. This is one of the best movies of the year. It Rocked the Rhode Island premier and everyone there loved it. There is no way this movie was meant to be like that of the 1980s, that is what the 1986 film was for. This wasn’t a remake but a reinvention of a great storied franchise that has changed many times over the past 20 years. If you love movies go watch Transformers, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Best movie I have seen in a long time.

  3. I hate Optimus’ mouth..it sux. The special effects made me crave for more *drools*

    MIKE, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH U..

    I am a trans fan but after watching the movie, somehow i felt devastated with what micheal bay has done with this film. Bay admitted that he not even a trans fan and transformers for him just only toys. He made the film in his way and thats what we got!. Some scene in the film for me is unnecessary especially involving sector 7 guys and John Turturro as an agent of a classified organisation for me is a joke. I need to see more optimus prime, autobots and decepticons. I felt frustrated after all the hype and the waiting, the movie didnt up to my expectation.

    tigil tigilan nyo nga yang feeling eloquent trip nyo ha. what the hell is so wrong with the flick? it’s a summer popcorn movie and to look for anything deep is plain absurd. sa lang masasabi ko sa reviewer na to and whoever who happens to agree with his schtick, pare pareho kayong mga KAMOTE!!
