transformers

One of the most anticipated films of the summer, Transformers does go far above my expectations. Having watch the making on the tv, it made me think it's just one of those good movies. But I was so wrong. It was an AWESOME movie.

Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) bought a yellow Camaro as his first car. To his shock the car seems to have a mind of his own and he later found out that it is one of the Autobots, Bumblebee. Both the good Autobots led by Optimus Prime and the evil Decepticons led by Megatron are stalking Sam because of a discovery of his great-grandfather while exploring the Arctic about the Allspark.

The story is just good, not complicated. You dont have to think hard, just enjoy.

The cast were excellent especially Shia whose comic antics are on the right timing.

It's amazing how the CGI mixed with the real characters. However, the tranformation from vehicle to robot seems a bit blurred (or I dont know if it's because were just near the screen.. hehe..)

Very good special effects.

Great sound effects. I can still hear the sound of the robots hitting each other.

The action scenes between the robots are exciting. But I think the battle between Optimus Prime and Megatron should have given more emphasis than Sam running with the Allspark.

There were really no dull moments in the movie. The supposed boring scenes were covered by those funny antics by the characters. I like it when the Autobots are trying to hide from Sam's parents in their backyard. It was really funny!

This is probably the best 'special effects' movie I ever watched. The CGI is really very good. So don't wait for the DVD copy (whether original or pirated). This is really one movie worth watching in the big screen.
