Amazon.com "I bought a car. Turned out to be an alien robot. Who knew?" deadpans Sam Witwicky, hero and human heart of Michael Bay's rollicking robot-smackdown fest, Transformers. Witwicky (the sweetly nerdy Shia LaBeouf, channeling a young John Cusack) is the perfect counterpoint to the nearly nonstop exhilarating action. The plot is simple: an alien civil war (the Autobots vs. the evil Decepticons) has spilled onto Earth, and young Sam is caught in the fray by his newly purchased souped-up Camaro. Which has a mind--and identity, as a noble-warrior robot named Bumblebee--of its own. The effects, especially the mind-blowing transformations of the robots into their earthly forms and back again, are stellar. Fans of the earlier film and TV series will be thrilled at this cutting-edge incarnation, but this version should please all fans of high-adrenaline action. Director Bay gleefully salts the movie with homages to pop-culture touchstones like Raiders of the Lost Ark, King Kong, and the early technothriller WarGames. The actors, though clearly all supporting those kickass robots, are uniformly on-target, including the dashing Josh Duhamel as a U.S. Army sergeant fighting an enemy he never anticipated; Jon Voight, as a tough yet sympathetic Secretary of Defense in over his head; and John Turturro, whose special agent manages to be confidently unctuous, even stripped to his undies. But the film belongs to Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, and the dastardly Megatron--and the wicked stunts they collide in all over the globe. Long live Transformers! --A.T. Hurley

Great movie to test your blu-ray player/ps3 January 7, 2009 Sound picture awesome. Extras and bonus features just as good as movie. If you grew up watching transformers....it's a must buy.
Super January 6, 2009 This is a great movie! Awesome special effects and brings back great memories of the cartoons from childhood!
Amazing! January 5, 2009 This movie is amazing. I would have to say it is one of the best Blu-ray movies that I have seen so far. The effects stand out and pop just like the did in the movies and the bonus features, Blu-ray live, etc... are well worth it. Whether you are a fan of Transformers or not this is a great action-packed movie which is fun (in my opinion) for the whole family.
Strictly for 8 year olds January 2, 2009 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Nearly everything has already been said and written about this movie. However, consider this for the sheer level of stupidity we are talking about:
Sam's great-great-grandfather discovers Megatron in the arctic ice in 1897; Sam is also supposed to be a typical teenager getting his first car and is at most 17 years old. If we allow for some 30 years between generations, then his great-great-grandfather would have been born 137 years ago (4 generations, i.e. 4x30 years). That means around 1870 - make that 1860 to account for late bloomers in the family. In any case he would have been in his late 20s or 30s at the time of the expedition, which by itself makes perfect sense - arduous arctic voyages are a young man's game. And yet the movie portrays him as an old man! Played in fact by veteran actor William Morgan Sheppard, who was already in his early 70s at the time of production. Doesn't this kind of say it all? It either means that everybody involved in the movie was a moron, from the director all the way down; or that they assumed their audience was so infantile, that they could never conceive of a great-great-grandfather as having been a young man.
Why harp on a minor point? Because it could have been so easily avoided and because it makes it impossible to give this movie any benefit of the doubt. You can forgive all the nonsense and ignore the plot holes for the sake of entertainment, but you don't need to get insulted in the process.
Micheal Bay was right! January 1, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the way Transformers was suppose to be seen!!! The Special effects look amazing in HD and the sound will blow you away. If you have a blu-ray player you need this movie. The bonus content is also in HD which was a great addition.
