Bay, of course, can't resists temptation to use as many explosions in the film as possible
Dec 15, 2009
Morphs from Army-enlisting ad to toy ad (on its way passing through a panoply of car ads, computer ads, beer ads) without ever becoming a movie
Aug 27, 2009
Thank god the Transformers speak primarily in proper nouns--if they hadn't shouted "Optimus! Megatron!" every time they struck a blow, I'd have no idea what was happening.
Jun 23, 2009
Transformers is a rollicking, rousing experience.
Feb 2, 2009
For the bot-neutral rest of us, two-and-a-half hours of mostly incoherent special effects may be a bit much.
Oct 18, 2008
Top CriticIt is a teenage boy's wet dream. The girls are insanely hot, the lead is awkward/funny and the action sequences are top notch.
Sep 4, 2008
...if you are an adult and not already a fan, you may find the movie more than a bit long, loud, and frenzied.
Aug 18, 2008
Come to think of it, I was pretty stupid when I was six years old. So is this film.
Jul 31, 2008
Director Michael Bay's bigger than life version of the cartoon I grew up loving pretty much ruined one of my favorite childhood memories.
Jul 23, 2008
Although it strives to appeal to the whole family, it winds up emerging as a kiddie flick on steroids - a big-budget, effects heavy, feature film version of a Saturday morning cartoon.
Jul 7, 2008
Transformers is the best action movie I have seen since The Matrix.
May 24, 2008
'Transformers' is a loud, unsophisticated testament to the visceral thrills of effects-driven mayhem.
Apr 9, 2008
An overachiever of a film that practically defines the term summer blockbuster.
Jan 4, 2008
If you take Transformers with a grain of salt...you'll have a pretty fun time checking out both the robotic (transformers) and human (Megan Fox) eye candy
Dec 18, 2007
When Transformers is going strong early on, it’s the grandest -- in every sense of the word -- entertainment in years.
Oct 20, 2007
The action scenes are too chaotic to be exciting.
Oct 19, 2007
Audiences are liable to be in a state of utter bewilderment.
Oct 16, 2007
Without expectations I could sit back and enjoy the updated computer- generated nostalgia for what it was.
