Rating: - Great movie for Transformers fans (only)
This is an awesome movie for fans of the cartoon series, Transformers. The special effects are impressive and the voice-overs for the Autobots (particularly Peter Cullen who reprises his voice-over role as Optimus Prime) and Decepticons are authentic and add a lot to the movie.

The downside to this movie, and the reason why I wouldn't give it 5 stars, is because of its storyline which seems somewhat weak. It felt as if the time had come to bring the cartoon to the silver screen but not enough thought was given into making the story more convincing.

That said, if you are a Transformers fan, this movie is a must. At the very least, you'll get to see your animated robots on the movie screen (and done very well too) which is a real thrill. Having Peter Cullen voice Optimus Prime again after so many years is icing on the cake :) Watch out for the famous phrase, "one shall stand and one shall fall" - it made me giddy!

Lastly, I think there can be no better way to watch this at home than on high-definition Blu-Ray format. The picture is incredibly crisp and audio quality is amazing. I've seen it on regular DVD but the Blu-Ray format brings the movie to life!

Rating: - Pubescent Hormones and Robots Run Amok
While it's amusing enough, and the effects are impeccable, there's little doubt about the age of the intended audience. Every adult in the film is a clueless buffoon or an officious wacko.

Whether apparently flirty bimbos or bookish babes, the girls are the intelligent ones while the "guys" are walking blobs of hormones and machismo.

It's a nice bit of overblown fun even if it can't decide whether to be a serious thriller or a comedic adventure.

Rating: - Funny, Entertaining and phenomenal special effects!
This is one of the most entertaining movies in the last 20 years. And isn't that what movies are supposed to be? It is funny, cute, entertaining and the special effects are exceptional. And of course it has a great ending. Not much more one can ask for. Highly recommended to all ages but you have to have a sense of humor!

Rating: - Great Movie
Love the re-incarnation/re-image, whatever you want to call it, can't wait for the next one.

Rating: - Magnificent quality
This is just one of many Blu-Ray movies that i have purchased that has given me a great movie experience, personally i feel that even in the movie theaters you don't get the HD experience that a Blu-Ray movie gives you. The Transformers movie gives you an awsome look at how much detail you can see because of the HD quality. You can actually see the littlest of details in the mechanics of the different moving parts in the robots. Just awesome!! Also the prompt delivery of your product, amazon will let you know the approximate date of delivery and will probably get there before the date of arrival. All in all i have had a great experience with Amazon.
