Transformers is a movie made by people who loved the cartoon a child. It’s a movie made for the people who loved the cartoon as a child. I’m one of those people.

The coolest robot ever made (in the movie world) is Optimus Prime. I imagine it was a lot of work making this autobot look real life but they did it. I know the transformers are CGI generated but it still looks real.

Every movie has his ups and down. For the people who haven’t seen the movie yet and hate spoilers, stop reading right here.

STOP READING… SPOILERS

The movie begins with a decepticon attack on a us army base in the desert. A helicopter that supposed to have crashed flies to a base turns into a robot and attacks the base. Almost everybody dies.

The movie is about a young man “spike” who gets his first car. A car the dealer doesn’t know and somehow the car takes out the competition. While trying to impress a girl the car does a few funny trick, like play the right song at the right comical time. He does make a good impression on the girl. So far this part looks like a herbie movie.

That night Spike’s car is stolen. Or so he thinks. The car Bumblebee just went to signal the other autobots to come to earth because.

The decepticons are looking for a cube with the spark that gave the transformers live. And the directions to it are embedded in the glasses of spike’s grandfather. You have to see this one to understand how.

The decepticons attack spike in order to get the information. Bumblebee saves him and brings him to the other autobot. The autobots take the shape of the cars they see. They drive to the meeting point ant transform into robots.

Man the moment we saw Optimus the whole theater stood up and applauded. And then it got better. Optimus spoke.

I’m not gonna spoil the rest of the movie. But believe me, if you are a transformers fan you need to see this movie.

The movie also has a few downsides.

Megatron doesn’t look like megatron. I can understand that they can’t make a robot that is as big as a house and turn him into a gun. But he doesn’t even have megatron’s face. In this movie megatron turn into a alien spaceship. That was a cool move but please keep the face. The face of megatronis the face of evil. It’s a face we all love to hate.

Good news for all the fans. It looks like there will be a sequel. To many meanies survive the movie not to make a sequel.

For those of you who haven’t seen it yey.

GO SEE THE MOVIE
