Rob, go watch the film. Go in thinking it is going to be how you think it is going to be as I feel that is what they want you to do. Trust me on this...you will be blown away.

By "marking out" means that I was like a child reborn from when I watched the cartoon as a kid etc. I love Transformers.

but man it starts and seems very much like carrying on from ROTF.
There is a reaosn for this that you will see within the first bit of the film. Watch it intently and it will pan out. I will not say anymore as it will lurch into spoilers.


I agree with all you have said.

although bay can do mega action, im glad he wont do another also glad shia wont, he is very over rated an actor

i cant see em not cashing in on a 4th, isnt DOTM doing really well in the US, and the last 2 made what, triple there budget? not including home release

as long as cullen is prime, I will always watch no matter what. when I hear his voice, like you say, im transported back to my childhood

i went in for a second viewing last night and it was better the 2nd time round. infact, i would say it is the better all round movie of the 3. i wasnt as emotionally attached in the same way as I was the 1st, i was a wreck watching that one but this is that good.

yeah, there is storylines in this one relating back to the humans BUT they in no way out weigh what is going on with the transformers.

i have read complaints that there is more footage of people than the transformers and that is total BS

my only issue with the flick... Rosie Huntington Whitely is not in the least bit attractive.

if you come out and didnt enjoy it then big time summer blockbusters arent for you and you should stick to a different kind of movie

Rosie Huntington Whitely was lovely, however when compared with Megan Fox :P its a different story.

Megan Fox was hot several years back, but I personally feel she has changed alot in her appearance. The new love interest for Shia did what she had to do in the way I can only assume they wanted her to.

Not really...not my cup of tea so to speak. There are others that lift the bonnet. Anyway, I prefer the mystery and her scenes were far from mysterious but rather in your face!

just seen it

sigh, not that good no, yes there was some AMAZING action in it, yes there were some lovely shots and scenes, but my oh my. 20 mins of great action and what felt like 3 hours of crap. felt like 2 different movies this.

first, too much human stuff, again, I dont care about sam looking/wanting a job for half an hour of the film, I dont want to see the comedy parents especially when its right in the middle of the action,

also the final action fight, was a bit of a disappointed, think id heard it bigged up too much before going in, I mean, ok I dont want to post spoilers, can I post spoilers, can we discuss it further?

a few more things, why, why did they have to put the spock line in there, sigh,
the finale had a total rip off of a doctor who ep (and not a very good doctor who ep lol)
shia actually did spiderman through burning cars and rubble, first he does tarzan in indy and now spiderman, sigh.
why does an autobot have a wig and human looking teeth?
the final confrontations, I expected more.
why do the transformers who in the last 2 movies had built in cannons suddenly need hand guns? same with prime, his sword was built in, not in the one.

ok bits I did like,
bublebee kicked ass as did optimus prime. there fight scenes were great.
the execution scene was good (although what led to it and how it came about annoyed me)
the autobot shuttle scenes were really well shot
the start of the movie (aside sam/job and parents) was really really good, really draws you into the plot.
was great having nimoy voice a character,
the ironhyde/sentinal scene was very good even if it was very similar to the far superior 80s transformers movie. a shame ironhyde in all the movies isnt used much.
the sky diving soldiers, this looked really cool,
starscream was fun, but far too little of him.
the freeway chase was cool, especially when the 2 autobots flip mid air mid chase.
again some of the action and effects were amazing but as a film, it was just pants, why not cut an hour of crap out and use that money for 10 more minutes of cool autobot vs decepticon action?

the very end, felt like it was missing 5 minutes, prime says something and bamm, cut, end credits.  although there was some great stuff, too much annoyed me about this film. I could make a very long list of what and why but would give away to many spoilers.

oh the 3D? what 3d? aside the odd scene you barely notice it.

rosie/megan? humm, maybe megan, but I was surprised in this, rosies acting wansnt all that bad, she was decent. and man she has some legs on her

It's right out the cartoon series - The Ultimate Doom.

I can safely in all honesty say its the best film I've seen at the cinema this year.



That's due to it being the only film I've seen at the cinema this year. It's not close.

So by definition its also the worst  :D

I enjoyed, couldn't hate it if I tried. Can't wait for the BluRay.

Funny thing for me was the last hour seemed to go on forever. I was absolutely dying for a pee - in the end I had to miss a few minutes (must be getting old) and that was still a good 15 minutes from the end!

The spock line because leonard nimoy (dont know if that is the right spelling?) voiced sentinel prime, i loved the film, apart from shockwave, great design but really weak useage, crap weapons and didnt really do any damage to any one, also wtf with dino and q? Why change there name a few weeks before releasing the film, they are my only niggles, apart from that great film

so i may be off on the timings lol, but ppl get the gist,

you needed the toilet like i did cos it was 5 hours long ;-)

sorry but there was too much that annoyed me from the human boredom of sams story and parents to even stuff with the transformers.

near the end, the autobots are all like yer, ok lets kick some ass and all roll out, then we see 5 odd minutes of sam crap next thing we see all the autobots have been captured off screen? wtf?

why im disappointed more is the start was really interesting and well filmed (aside sam looking for a job) but the plot turned silly, with too much tosh going on. yes there was some good stuff and some great action but man a an overall film, a bit crap

dino and q?

i dare anyone to name all the robots that were new to this movie? without looking on imdb lol.

annoyed me how some of them were nobodies. and they got rid of the twins from ROTF just to give there stuff to the small robots.

who was the einstein looking autobot with the stupid human looking hair and teeth? please god dont tell me it was wheeljack? please no.

laserbeek and shockwave were cool, soundwave sorely underused. as are so many, starscream and ironhyde in all 3 movies.

was the new red autobot spanish?
