Transformers Review

Takes you back to being a kid
Fast Moving

The fights scenes are a bit hard to see

As I was watching the movie Transformers, it took me back to being a kid again watching the cartoon. Seeing the autobots and deceptacons transforming for the first time made me feel 8 all over again.

The action is faced paced although the fight scenes between the robots did get hard to follow at some places and were a little too blurry in a sense. However this does not take away from the movie and the addition of some comedy moments especially when they were hiding from Sam's mum and dad was funnier than I thought it would be.

They have kept the core of the cartoon here and the fact that optimus prime sounds how he does in the cartoon was perfect in my opinion.

This is not a complex, clever or thought provoking movie, what it is, is a fast paced summer blockbuster you can just sit back and let yourself be immersed into the film. This is to me what a summer blockbuster is all about.

The human actors are portrayed well and the dialog does not come across cheesy and works well.

My only complaint is that optimus seemed weaker than he should have been and this made it a little bit annoying but its only a small minor complaint.

If you loved the cartoon then you will love this.
