Sounding good alright.

I just got back from a special late night/midnight showing of Transformers. And....well I think you should look at my post in the "last movie you watched" thread" if you want to know how i really feel.

Needless to say, I think Michael Bay has delivered to us the greatest TV show adapted movie ever! It's perfection in its purest form.

I gave your post a look and you've got me more hyped then ever, Mr.M! I probably won't see the movie for another couple of weeks but I just can't wait. I'm on pins and needles.

I finally got the chance to see the movie today, and I have to say, it was worth the wait.

I was very surprise of the portrayl of the characters, in spite of their altered appearance, yet, they kept their personality intact (especially Optimus Prime and Megatron).

Also, some of the actors done the voice very well, including Hugo Weaving, who sound almost like Frank Welker.

Overall, I like the movie, and I have to say, Michael Bay did a good job with this film.

I'm going to have to give this movie a thumbs down, something I hate to do. The story was too flat for my tastes, there was no real weight to any of the situations, a lot of the humor was uncalled for and not funny, the robots were marginalized to having little to no personality, and the action so messy that you could hardly tell what was going on. I enjoyed the thrill ride nature of the film, and I especially enjoyed the charm that Shia brought to the film, but the rest I can take it or leave it.

As I've said before, sometimes it takes multiple viewings for me to love a movie, and I plan on seeing this again at a later date. However, I'm sure my current thumbs down will still stand.

Hopefully next time Spielberg will hire someone with a better appreciation and understanding of the cinematic language or at the very least have them hire better writers.
