Transformers
Sunday, July 1st, 2007
Thumbs up.
Great to finally see the motherfuckers on the big screen. This movie delivers nothing more but a new intepretation of the Transformers universe and the giant-arse Transformers themselves in 3d glory. And saying the Transformers look fucken awesome is only an understatement.
I loved how they made Bumble-Bee, he actually looks like a bee. And fuckity fuck Ironhide and Blackout look too awesome.
My only gripe with the movie is that it’s focused on the humans, rather than the Transformers themselves, so most of the bits and relationships you know and love between the Transformers (ie. the bickering between Star Scream and Megatron) aren’t really there.
Oh and Megatron doesn’t even come into the film until the last 30 minutes - which brings a question of what’s more gay: Megatron coming into the movie too late or Megatron looking than a spikey blow up doll?
Overall, it’s a typical Michael Bay movie - a Hollywood blockbuster with no soul. But still good.
P.s. Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith from the Matrix) is Megatron - and I couldn’t even tell…
