It did in fact rock.

A summer popcorn action flick with no pretensions of greatness, just balls to the walls action and flawless special effects. Which is actually what made it great.

The balls to walls action that came after the Herbie remake?

It had much better action scenes than any other movie of the year, but I do not believe it is actually possible for a movie to succeed (well ok maybe financially succeed) on action alone in much the same way that you can not have a good movie based solely on the quality of its make-up or lighting.

I can stand weak stories and I can stand nonsensical stories, but not when both are put together. After the cube was found their is no reason a slow, frail human should be ferrying it away instead of a gargantuan robot that transforms into a vehicle capable of exceeding 140 mph.

I also believe they tried to do too much to make it appeal to a larger audience. They had very forced comedy, love sub plot, drama, and epic movie tones. Were it just an all out action movie with a passable story I would have enjoyed it.

I want to see this but oddly enough, my husband doesn't care anything about seeing it. He's a freak.

1. it WAS an all out action movie.
2. plausible? ROFL, like spidermane you mean? or fantastic four? or how about die hard where he rolls out of a car going fast enough to launch it up into a helicopter without any broken bones?

there is no "plausible" in sci-fi. nor in most if not all action flicks.

say it, you just dont like robots.

and herbie has nothing on bumblebee. oh wait, mabe you a FORD FAN, hahahaha, that would explain it.

i ill say, my bros wife wanted to walk out, she just couldnt stand it anymore. i was smart enough not to bring my wife. it was every teen boys dream, adn most mens dream. a super bad **** butt kicking car and a super fine looking babe who LIKED bad **** cars. /shiver....someone hold me.

hope they make another.

I don't want to ruin anyone's experience by debating the quality of this movie in the thread. I think it's one of the better movies this year to take a family or group of friends to, probably the second best after pirates. Hope IMAX does not ***** you a second time Jophiel.

I liked it. I walked in with the only expectation that it had to be better than the '86 Transformers: The Movie flick, and it was.

A nicely spent couple of hours, and with it pulling in 27.4 million dollars, the biggest ever for a Tuesday opening, we can probably expect to see a sequel sometime in the future.

I think that's gonna be my new sig.

Starscream kills Dumbledore.

The movie was a lot of fun. It is a movie based on an 80's cartoon about robots from another planet that can transform after all.

Or "dorks" as they are commonly known...

FTFY

FUcking idiot

Oh God I hope so. I do love some good bewbage.

Reverse the order and THEN Joph will get all sweaty.
