It seems that Transformers had caused a great interest… Sure it had: it’s a big movie, based on a great cartoon. Well, I must admit I was just a kid last time I saw the cartoon, so I don’t remember all the details. Though, I’m pretty much sure about few things:

• The cartoon wasn’t overloaded with commercials. Too bad I can’t say that for the movie. It goes like this: “Ok, I’m taking my memory card out of the reader… Let’s wait for two seconds. Ok, everyone saw that it’s a Panasonic 2GB memory card, let’s pass it on.”. Or, how about the scene where the Bumblebee transforms from a piece of crap into a Chevrolet? eBay?
• Megatron speaks English? Well, according to Optimus Prime, they learned English over the Internet. Megatron had been frozen since 1934. Internet existed back in 1934?
• America, the land of free… In my opinion, it was all too political. The US of A’s minister of defense is in doubt if they are being attacked by the Chinese, the North Koreans, or the Russians… The war in Iraq… Not the right movie for that kind of stuff.

Sure, it’s not all so black…

• The music is just great… It fits the movie perfectly. I can’t wait for the soundtrack .
• And the special effects, too. I was astonished. The robots and the transformations are perfect. And the fighters flying between the skyscrapers…
• I want Bumblebee …

Overall, I can say that I like the movie… It’s the Transformers, after all .
