I enjoyed it...really loved the voice for Optimus Prime...wasn't that like the original voice? Sounded like it.

The only part I didn't get was the military running into the center of a city to do the cube drop...how about maybe NOT near millions of people?

Yeah it was the original voice. I liked the movie too for the most part though I felt like the comic relief scenes in the begining were too drawn out.

same actor.

can't wait to see this - just bought my tickets, dead center in the middle of the cinerama dome in Hollywood! First time at the dome - I hope it and the movie live up to the hype.

maybe the military planned on using the buildings as cover from the decepticons?

It won't. But at least it will sound pretty good.

Personally, I thought the movie was entertaining, but it was extremely difficult to keep track of what is going on, especially at the end. Cuts every 1.5 seconds are difficult to interpret. Definitely will have to see it again.

7.5 out of 10.

Great special effects that really should be seen in a theater. Other than that, there's not much to this movie. The plot is pretty weak, as is the acting.

That's the forumla for every summer blockbuster now.

- non original idea or sequal +
- Overdone CGI monsters +
- Explosions +
- Hot girls +

No plot, no thinking, just watch things blow up and stare at that ass.

Hey Chaplin, Cheese knew to go to the "Arclight". You watch, he'll never want to go to any other theater after this...

We'll finish this "Arclight is the greatest theater ever" debate at GameFace tomorrow...

1st 45 minutes: Totally freaking Awesome!

Middle 15 minutes: WTF?

Rest of Movie: Pretty good.

Overall: 7.5/10


The dynamic between Prime and Megatron no played up enough... I would've like to have seen more development of the Transformers ( I understand that most pepole would have watched the cartoon, so film maker may have felt is was not needed).
