Product Description
Dreamworks Transformers - HD-DVD
From director Michael Bayand executive producer Steven Spielberg comes a thrilling battle between the heroic Autobots(R) andthe evil Decepticons(R). When their epic strugglecomes to Earth, all that stands between the Decepticons(R) and ultimate power is a clue held by young Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf). Unaware that he ismankind's last chance for survival, Sam and Bumblebee, his robot disguised as a car, are in a heart-pounding race against an enemy unlike anything anyone has seen before. It's the incredible, breath-taking film spectacular that USA Today says "will appeal to the kid in all of us.".

"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 More Than Meets the Eye

 Awkward Charm and big budget robot action March 11, 2010
Geoffrey Johnson (Lake Villa, IL United States)
If you have kids, they'll love it! Giant robots that are so detailed they look like towering piles of junk. It's quite a feast for the eyes too, with different locales like Egypt, the Smithsonian museum, and all of the expensive military play toys (battleships, tanks, aircraft carriers, flying predator drones and so on).
As for the movie itself, it's watchable at best and I'm a fan of Transformers. Basically this movie is one awkward moment after another. Like someone does something strange in public, but I guess that makes it seem charming (robot leg humping, dogs humping, the lead character getting caught in a compromising position). The awkwardness made it like a PG-13 American Pie only with robots.
Speaking of the robots, they really felt tacked on. Like the movie could have replaced them with terrorists and fast cars. At some point I forgot there were Transformers in it! I felt the same way with the lead heroine Megan Fox. It was pointless to have her in the movie after the first 30 minutes and she probably should have been killed off earlier on. The movie made good use of her running in slow motion. The action is big budget with Transformers tangling with Decepticons, but really, the action wasn't all that good. It was different to watch giant robots fighting with humans in the way, but was it good, nope. Also it was difficult to tell one Decepticon from another and I know all the characters. Maybe if they were painted bright and flashy colors to differentiate them like the Transformers it would have been easier.

Transformers has transformed our hearts again March 3, 2010
Kristen Caselnova (Altoona, PA)
Transformers was always my favorite cartoon growing up as a child. Whenever it was on I'd plop myself down in front of the TV screen and watched for hours on end. Now, being an adult and going to college I've always missed watching that show. But lucky enough for me, they made a movie of it. This movie was probably one of the most well thought out and most well made films I have seen in a long time (even the sequel was good which is such a shocker.) It made me want to see more ideas from the producer and writers, and it also made me change my ways of thinking that not all sequels are terrible. They are now shooting for Transformers 3 so I've heard, and I can't wait for it to come out. Transformers all the way. Autobots, roll out.
Amazing March 3, 2010
I. Siddiqui
One of my very favorite movies. I loved it as soon as i saw it. i have no idea what those people who voted 1 or 2 stars are talking about. Just a great movie and even better on BluRay. Good effects, great sound, and just enough laughs to make it a comedy. There are days i can just stay home and watch this, and i'd have a successful night.
Awesome movie, my number 1 March 1, 2010
T. Toribio (New Jersey, USA)
This is the greatest movie I have seen in recent years. I usually don't like to see movies more than once except for those that are very good. The very good movies, I'll watch them twice and that's it. However, the Transformers is so good I can watch it over and over again and never get tired. I have seen it at least 3 times before I bought it and I can't stop watching it. I have a pretty good sound system so I really enjoy the special sound effects at its maximum. If you are an action sci-fi type of person, then you are going to love this movie. I recomend the action lovers to buy this, you will not regret it. I just have to finish saying is an awesome movie, it will be hard to see another movie top this one (at least for me).
