Pros: Best visual effects to date.
Cons: Barely noticeable.

Transformers 2007 directed by Michael Bay is a film based upon its 80's cartoon series and franchise. Executive producer Steven Spielberg keeps things fairly simple with its characters, plot and theme. Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) and Mikaela ...

Pros: Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime; Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox; special effects
Cons: Pacing felt slow in many places; a bit silly at times

Upon watching the release of Michael Bay’s live-action version of Transformers, I realized that there were going to people of many factions watching this movie. On one side there are the kids who are familiar with the later versions of the ...

Pros: Entertaining action movie with good effects and good cast.
Cons: Jerky camera work. Hard to tell who was who at times.

When I was growing up, I watched the Transformer cartoons all the time after school. If I remember right, most of the cartoons on at that time on the stations I was able to get that time were aimed more at boys than girls, but I still watched ...

Pros: Fantastic special effects, some good action and humour...
Cons: ... some plot flaws, terrible dialogue, typical Michael Bay overlong action sequence...

I was quite looking forward to this film despite only vaguely remembers the original Transformers cartoon and not being a great fan of Michael Bay. Just so you know where I’m coming from… The plot, of course, revolves around big robots ...

Pros: A truly entertaining film, humorous, great special effects.
Cons: Okay, so it's a little silly and cheesy at parts.

The very concept of “Transformers” fills me with nostalgic warm and fuzzies. Transformers remind me of a simpler time in the mid-80s when I was five years old and completely thrilled by the adventures of Autobots and Decepticons. As an adult ...

Pros: Nice young cast, great CGI
Cons: The people parts weren't as good as the robot parts

I was reluctant to see Transformers because I expected it to be another big dumb action movie filled with stupid one-liners and too much CGI. I say that because this has so far been a disappointing summer for me in terms of big budget movies. ...

Pros: Choice of robots, special effects, LeBouf's "everyman"
Cons: Almost everyone else.

I didn't see "Transformers" in theatres. I kept on trying to, but in between summer being an awfully busy time of year, several trips, and it being too "adult" for my young boys and too "boy movie" for my wife, we didn't end up making it. We first ...

Pros: Like, everything!
Cons: Like, nothing!

Oh my gosh, guys, I just saw Transformers, and it was like, awesome! It was just like those Saturday morning cartoons we used to watch, only it was, like, real! Optimus Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee, the whole lot, man, they were there, man, they ...

Pros: Some of the special effects might look good in a real movie.
Cons: I don't want to think about them any more.

Well, once again we have one of those wonderful biodegradable summer movies (like the Cruise version of "War of the Worlds") where a good idea is taken as a basis, lots of money for special effects are thrown in, but the plot is ridiculously splattered ...

Pros: Practically everything about it!
Cons: Too minor to mention

For as long as I can possibly remember, I have always loved the Transformers. I remember collecting the toys, I remember watching the cartoon series and I remember the movie as well. The only problem is the last time I saw the cartoon was nearly 20 ...

Pros: Shia Labeouf. Great special effects. Bay's style doesn't give you a headache for a change.
Cons: Lack of interesting characters. Story is littered with holes. Excessive use of silly humor.

Michael Bay has made a name for himself with big budget spectacles that have become enormously successful at the box office. They’ve also been consistently idiotic and insulting to the audience. In films such as Pearl Harbor, Armageddon, and ...

Pros: Great action scenes, amazing special effects
Cons: Plot was slightly predictable

It seems like everyone but me has at one time or another been totally into the Transformers. As a kid growing up in the 80s, I definitely remember them, but I don’t think I ever cared for them much. I liked the toys a bit and the cartoon even ...

Pros: Fast Paced, lots of action…
Cons: No character development; cliches and stereotypes abound.

Let me preface this review by stating that I do not usually go to movies premieres, but I had the day off, and a review to pen, so…Transformers, they were not around when I was growing up but I being a cartoon buff, I remember well the ...

Pros: Transformers, noun, definition: Greatest Summer Movie Action, adventure, suspense, blowing stuff up
Cons: To few Transformers in the movie, only 2 and a half hours.

Transformers is a must see. You need not read any further, get your money, get out to your car, and go drive to the theater and see it. Do not sit at your computer downloading some pirated version, go to the theater now. If you're still here you ...

Pros: Cool FX, decent acting for the genre, giant robots (duh!)
Cons: Turturro overplays, don't try and apply logic at all

Have you ever been so torn by a movie that you don’t really know what to say about it? That’s the way I am with Transformers, the movie we went to see yesterday. The 15-year-old kid in me, the one that grew up on the cartoon series based on the ...
