    I don't really have a review per say I just wanted to voice a couple of thoughts:

    It's funny because, near the end of the movie, it begins wrapping up so quickly that you can pretty much tell where they ran out of time and money.

    Also, RIP Ironhide. Fuck you, Michael Bay. :|

    This particular movie just didn't impress me as much as the others.

    As the others?

    There's no way it could be worse than Transformers 2.

    Transformers #1: OK. That was a cool experience. It lacked a good story but entertaining.
    Transformers #2: Hope the story elements are better, but it turned out to be all flash no substance. TERRIBLE!
    Transformers #3. TBD....

    nr3 im sad to say lacked megan fox, instead we get a blond with no personality >< and you spend half the movie wondering when they are gonna kick it into gear and the other half wondering what the hell just happend :/
    all in all i give it two ** out of five one * for bumblebee and optimus prime and a star for sams mothers comic relief.

    Did you watch it muted? That's about the only way I've found the plot to be tolerable.

    And Megan Fox. And Shia LeBeouf. Shit, the whole cast. If there were no people in the movie, it would have been great.

    I didn't have a problem with this movie. I'm easy to please. Robots, explosions +hot girl = Happy. I found the mindless banter amusing and enjoyed Leonard Nimoy's line close to the end about the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few and how they used the I will always be your friend line from Star Trek for bumble bee. I think I liked this girl more than megan fox.

    WTB Ironhide back

    Guys,

    I am highly disappointed that a movie based on a cartoon involving robots on Earth fighting each other through plot lines that didn't really make much sense turned out to be about robots on Earth fighting each other through plot lines that didn't really make much sense.

    Most of the time fan boys cant cry enough how inaccurate some of these movies are. A lot of the plot devices in the movies came from the cartoons.

    Its a movie based off a cartoon who's sole purpose was to sell small kids shitty toys. If you went in expecting more than Shia, a hot chick, explosion and robots you went for the wrong reasons and should blame yourself for wasting your own money.

    lol @ lime, that was good

    anyway, i didn't see this one yet, but hearing it will have a speeded wrap-up discourages me a little, i hate when movies/shows do that

    i did like the 2nd one. no more or less so then the 1st.

    edit
    ok, watched the 3rd one. It is the best one yet and way better then any transformers cartoon I've ever seen. ^^
