![]() The cast does an adequate job and keep the movie from feeling B-grade. ![]() The battles feel epic and they aren't heavily edited into quick jump cuts so you can still understand what is going on. I felt there were enough action scenes without going overboard and drowning out story. The action sequences aren't as abundant as one would expect, but I'm not complaining. I've heard that some classic fans aren't satisfied with their designs but I felt they did a good job adding what realism they could to giant fighting robots. The robots look amazing and their transformations are seamless. ![]() ILM did a fantastic job with the Transformers in this film. The only things that matter about this movie are the special effects and the action sequences. Based on the Hasbro toyline and it's resulting animated series/comics, the film follows high-schooler Sam Witwicky who discovers his Camaro is a shape-shifting alien robot he is soon brought into the middle of a war between the Autobots and the Decepticons, warring factions of a race of sentient robots. I thought it was a fun action flick and one of the best popcorn movies from the year. So, without having the fanboy mentality, I was able to enjoy the movie as it was.and I did. Going into the film for the first time, the only characters I knew by name were Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Bumblebee (and I only knew of him through the mention of friends). I was not a Transformers kid when I grew up in the 80's and I think that's why I wasn't so hard on Michael Bay's film when I caught it in the summer of 2007.
