Album Description:
From director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg comes a thrilling battle between the heroic Autobotsr and the evil Decepticonsr. When their epic struggle comes to Earth, all that stands between the Decepticonsr and ultimate power is a clue held by young Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf). Unaware that he is mankind's last chance for survival, Sam and Bumblebee, his robot disguised as a car, are in a heart-pounding race against an enemy unlike anything anyone has seen before. It's the incredible, breath-taking film spectacular that USA Today says ''will appeal to the kid in all of us.''

Amazon.com:
"I bought a car. Turned out to be an alien robot. Who knew?" deadpans Sam Witwicky, hero and human heart of Michael Bay's rollicking robot-smackdown fest, Transformers. Witwicky (the sweetly nerdy Shia LaBeouf, channeling a young John Cusack) is the perfect counterpoint to the nearly nonstop exhilarating action. The plot is simple: an alien civil war (the Autobots vs. the evil Decepticons) has spilled onto Earth, and young Sam is caught in the fray by his newly purchased souped-up Camaro. Which has a mind--and identity, as a noble-warrior robot named Bumblebee--of its own. The effects, especially the mind-blowing transformations of the robots into their earthly forms and back again, are stellar.

Fans of the earlier film and TV series will be thrilled at this cutting-edge incarnation, but this version should please all fans of high-adrenaline action. Director Bay gleefully salts the movie with homages to pop-culture touchstones like Raiders of the Lost Ark, King Kong, and the early technothriller WarGames. The actors, though clearly all supporting those kickass robots, are uniformly on-target, including the dashing Josh Duhamel as a U.S. Army sergeant fighting an enemy he never anticipated; Jon Voight, as a tough yet sympathetic Secretary of Defense in over his head; and John Turturro, whose special agent manages to be confidently unctuous, even stripped to his undies. But the film belongs to Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, and the dastardly Megatron--and the wicked stunts they collide in all over the globe. Long live Transformers! --A.T. Hurley

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super
This is a great movie! Awesome special effects and brings back great memories of the cartoons from childhood!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing!
This movie is amazing. I would have to say it is one of the best Blu-ray movies that I have seen so far. The effects stand out and pop just like the did in the movies and the bonus features, Blu-ray live, etc... are well worth it. Whether you are a fan of Transformers or not this is a great action-packed movie which is fun (in my opinion) for the whole family.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Strictly for 8 year olds
Nearly everything has already been said and written about this movie. However, consider this for the sheer level of stupidity we are talking about:

Sam's great-great-grandfather discovers Megatron in the arctic ice in 1897; Sam is also supposed to be a typical teenager getting his first car and is at most 17 years old. If we allow for some 30 years between generations, then his great-great-grandfather would have been born 137 years ago (4 generations, i.e. 4x30 years). That means around ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Micheal Bay was right!
This is the way Transformers was suppose to be seen!!! The Special effects look amazing in HD and the sound will blow you away. If you have a blu-ray player you need this movie. The bonus content is also in HD which was a great addition.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Transformers
This movie was a lot better than I expected, it has a lot of action and has a lot going on, so I recommend to those that like action movies. It also has the new 2010 chevy camaro and it looks cool, so check it out.
