It's ok for women to say "I wanna watch because of the cute guy", but not for men. Men are pigs and cheaters and want to f*ck that actress right away if they say that. Why?

aye, Jessica alba has an unfortunate chance of luck where all her clothes burn off and i simply say "go on turn over" and i get a slap.... meanwhile the bloke appears topless with just a towel on dripping wet and she can say what she wants.....

EQUAL RIGHTS MY ASS!!

so, here comes Teh Seel(avid super transformer fan) view on it:

+ Nice plot.
+ Nice action scenes...on paper.
+ Freedom of robot "changes" by director not as bad as thought.
+ Its' Transformers.
+ Optimus Prime voice and pearls of wisdom, with the added "i want to sacrifice myself for everyone!" attitude. Marvelous.
+ Amount of bots on screen and no love story ruining it.
+ Good acting all around.
+ Action amount.

Now...

- Michael Bay and his Shaky Cam(tm) should be buried alive and shot twice with a mininuke :eek: Ruined most the good 1on1 fight scenes 'cause i couldn't see sh*t of what was happening.

- Action scenes. Really REALLY good with slow camera drives/still cameras. But SHAKY CAM!! It's computer generated, you can keep the camera as still/in motion as you want. You DON'T have to shake it so it's all a blur.

- Problems differentiating Starscream and Megatron(and transformed decepticons in general). Bit of color on Starscream wouldn't have destroyed the image and could've been gone around.

- Did i mention the anal leak of the devil that is Shaky Cam? :twak:

- Some really weird "what happened to this" moments. Like the car chase with bumblebee and barricade, just starts and then...umm..ends to a wall. And not in a good way. Also barricade just, disappears at the end.(or i didn't see it get shot because their quite hard to differentiate.

- Killing transformers, well, they can always be brought back but...still a bit too much "freedom" on the whole thing to off them like that. In THAT amount.

- Lips on transformers made me cry a bit :(

All in all, good movie, enjoyed it, but Shaky Cam partly ruined it from fight one. Have to see it agian in theatre, or on TV(might work even better) and see the whole picture instead of be bothered by some messes in the cameras.

Without the Shaky Cam i would give this a full 10, but with it...have to go with a 8, maybe 8+.
