[QUOTE="Arnwyn, post: 3659886, member: 7701"] Just saw it last week. I didn't enjoy it all that much, but it didn't suck. A 6/10 - slightly above average for a "summer blockbuster". Spent a few moments bored (who knew that someone could make giant robots boring? But looks like the (director? screenwriter?) managed to) and it was about 40 minutes too long. Hunting for glasses and that lame "Section 7" nonsense didn't do much for me. I might have enjoyed it more if I were 10 years younger - basically it was some teenage masturbation movie, which has long since been lost on me. Way too many snot-nosed teenagers getting in the way of giant robots. And the poor, poor Autobots. What terrible luck it was for them to have happened to each land on Earth in front of a [i]GM[/i] dealership. No wonder the Autobots needed the meatbags' help to win - the Decepticons get cool forms, while the Autobots get stuck with the :):):):)iest cars on earth. Nice going, losers. (And no wonder [spoiler]Jazz died - a Pontiac Solstice? That car has universally reviewed badly. You got what you deserved, Jazz[/spoiler].) What dipstick thought it would be a good idea to bring the cube straight to a major population center? Oh yeah - the moron that thought there would (read: might) be a good fight sequence there. Whatever. (And no - I don't buy the excuses given in this thread, sorry. In any case, I expect movies to show clearly why such questionable decisions are made, and this movie failed on that, regardless.) Finally - shakey cams suck. They've always sucked, and they still suck today. Hard. Megatron and his pure Cybertronian form rocked. And, while I didn't get much out of some of the Transformers, the normal/mundane military hardware - namely the desert sequence with A-10s and gunships - was awesome. [/QUOTE]
