TRANSFORMERS (2007) Review by CineMassacre

[mko258]

I had reserves about this movie and what really put my in the theater was the new Camaro. but after sitting through it I liked it. Meagn Fox probably had a lot to do with it. I dont really care for the 2nd one and have yet to see the 3rd.

[NaYarB04]

what the fuck we didnt get thundercats

[TheShadowluigi64]

@NaYarB04 we didn't get the movie,but we got a new thundercats show on cartoonnetwork which has the voice acter of liono playing his father in the new show.AND the show spoofed itself as "thunderLOLcats" on mad.

[UnivingIshiro]

I saw it and didn't like it,all the action and good parts were at the very ending and the story I felt it out of place,all the focus was on Megan Fox and she was modified to look like that.I prefer to see the first cartoon one,it has swear,interesting story and characters as well enviroment.

[DethroneME]

The first one was definitely the BEST. I mean watching the transformers actually transforming in front of you brought chills down my spine. For me, it was the best cinematic of all time.

[Lee78072]

This Movie is a bit "too American" for my taste!

Too much Clischees

[slaidification]

Bored to death by this movie.

[229matthew]

Cartoon is way better then the real life one

[unameme4u]

this movie sucks micheal bay should be banned from this franchise

[helljumpr5150]

Apollo 13 was WAY better than this movie.

[radiantnakashima]

I think the movie was pretty awesome but what held it down was too many human characters like for half the movie it was Sam and the army guys and you didnt even see the Transformers til the movie was halfway over. The 2nd movie wasnt that good either the 3rd I think was the best.

[minitouris]

I can't understand people who like these movies. A little stupidity for the sake of action I can muster, but this? Never have I seen such a stupid film. It's absolutely ridiculous. Robots from space that look like cars, learn about earth through the web and look for a pair of spectacles? Any kid could come up with a better plot than that.

After 20 minutes of constant facepalming, I stopped watching as it was simply a bad movie.

[LegoMaker3000]

"And wow she's pretty nice..."

[MOSTOBNOXIOUS]

hehe..climax



[girmreaper4]

1 was okay, 2 and 3 suck

[Crushinmueroporti]

I thought the whole movie was good, I love Optimus' voice, "Autobots, roll out"

[laneyboy5]

Before you ever go to slate this film, just hold back and think a sec.... Megan Fox.

[VideosNoOne]

@laneyboy5 daymmmn!!!!!! :D

[dethbang13]

wait... what happend to thunder cats, im a 90's kid, but the rest of my brothers and sisters were born in the 80's so i say the after shock counts saying those were the best time to watch TV

[girmreaper4]

the live action movies suck

[coopercastille]

funny, the live-action GI Joe movie was a let down and the Thundercats movie became a cartoon series, and a GOOD one

[Luka1180]

The hell... Transformers is the best film trilogy in my opinion :O

[reviewreviewer1]

Why does the Angry video Game Nerd complain some things are cliche and then praise others for being classic in that it follow others maerial???

[Spanky989]

the first one was awesome, the second was drawn out and cheesed out but i loved the action scene, and the third was just bullshit. they should've kept megan fox. the second movie was all about how her and sam were in love and shit and then she fucking dumps him. really hollywood? is that what you're gonna do? at least have a new actress play the same character so it's kinda legit.

[TheMarylandDude]

The Transformers trilogy, IMO, got better and better as it went on. They are saying that if they make a fourth film, it will most likely start a second trilogy.

[mariodude1sonicman2]

Were is the thunder cats movie? It is 2011 now and it was spost to be made in 2010?

[TheMarylandDude]

@mariodude1sonicman2 It's coming out in 2012

[NXTurbo007]

only transfomer 2 have devastator

[OldSkoolgamerz]

@NXTurbo007 Think he was referring to Brawl.

Apparently, for some reason, the Decepticon that transforms into a tank was erroneously called Devastator when the toys and other forms of media mentioned it as Brawl.

[NXTurbo007]

@OldSkoolgamerz oh yeah i remember that decepticon

[SuperDominator45]

here's my thing:

#1: pretty cool

#2: idk about it- too much of it wuz unecasary

#3: never seen it b4, but ill give it a chance

[superhuman295]

Transformers 1: Very good

Transformers 2: CRAP

Transformers 3: MORE CRAP, BAY STILL DOESN'T RESPECT THE SERIES

[TheDevineBeing]

@superhuman295

Transformers 1: CRAP

Tranformers 2: EXTREME CRAP

Transformers 3: MORE UNSPEAKABLE CRAP, JUST HORRBILE... BAY STILL DOESN'T RESPECT THE SERIES

There i've fixed it for you xD.

[superhuman295]

@TheDevineBeing lol that works also no doubt

[AFROJASON666]

im waitin for inhumanoids

[MrDavidX96]

@AFROJASON666 slim and slugs and anything w/ too many legs

[commanderinchief23]

Graphics were amazing whats your favorite classic transfomers i have a couple Blitzwing,hound,prowl,and.....­.maybe astro train!

[commanderinchief23]

I agree ive seen all transfomer movies but the love storys are so annoying!

[venomfan3412]

Her'es my review of the TF movies:

TF (2007): a great start 2 the series and best CG i've ever seen - 8.5

TF-ROTF (2009): A great, fun movie and a better plot - 9

TF-DOTM (2011): a dark & serious take in the TF series which I thought was awesome. I wish MF didn't throw a chick fit so she would get fired, but i thaught Carly was hot, and the superbowl preview music almost made me crap my pants. A great movie and an awesome book-end to the series, I hope they make a reboot - 10

[legogodzilla123]

wait a minuite devastater was't in the first movie

[JustinBiebarSucks]

@legogodzilla123 yeah ummm micheal bay made a mistake and called brawl devastator and that caused LOTS of confusion

[Allroundmoviemaker]

@legogodzilla123 Yes he was. He was that old yellow truck with that fork-crane thing on it. But there was also that huge thing called Devastator in the second part, the one who was a combination of many constructicons. So it's just two different transformers accidently sharing the same name.

[Slashercon]

@Allroundmoviemaker The truck with the fork crane was Bonecrusher, not Devestator. (That was the tank named Brawl.)

[supergameoholic]

I don't get why people hate Trnasformers 2 because i thought it was a pretty damn good movie in fact all the live action transformers movies was good

[SuperHorrormovies]

Transformers dark of the moon was the best one and two sucked

[CommanderMeaty]

THIS SUCKED

[BanjoOz]

I agree that the movie is fairly fun (despite the pointless human characters), but my main complaint is that it never feels like Transformers... just "ID4 with giant robots".

[viliussmproductions]

i agree with you

[jacknotbrenna]

@Blankskeen

I totally agree. The second and third one were EXTREMELY unnecessary.

[Blankskeen]

1 was great

2 was the worst

3 was okay in my opinion

[KireektheAndroid]

I loved all the movies. But 2 was the worst. I was, and still am super amazed by the way they made the transformation sequences, especially with all the details put into it. The second one made me a little dissapointed compared to the first but the third made up for it entirely. I think they should've used the old tank version of Megatron though, they have enough planes and when I learned Megatron was a jet I was wishing for the tank. But overall, all 3 movies are great.

[TheaterTurkey]

I would have like 1 thing in the transformers movie witch is make all the transformers there g1 (generation 1) model

[ExaltedAnarchy]

Did you see the third one, James? Personally I think that one was the best out of the three. Deffinetly one to go see if you haven't seen it already. Still have a love mix with it, as well as some humor, but a great movie overall. Should review that one.

[TheCopper1234]

Daft Punk should do the music for one of the Transformers movies!

[sala206]

The third one sucked BIG time

[Warhawk3451]

@sala206 Then don't watch it

[sala206]

@Warhawk3451 Too bad i did before i knew it was

[SlayerZaraki]

Yeah, the real Devastator turns up in the sequel. He turns up with goddamn testicles and some organic parts. This movie is an abomination.

[Cazz8203]

much agreed James!!! would haved like to have Frank Welker as Megatron too!! Great Review

[LegoCreations123]

Do a review of 2 & 3

[TheAGKMisadventures]

Transformers 3 is the best. They did an effort for the scenario.

[MDthornton83]

I actually agree with you on this. The 2007 movie is not bad, but there are a few things about it that do suck however. One problem that all three of Michael Bay's films suffer from is that they all focus too much on the human actors and not enough on the robot characters. In fact, sometimes it feels like the movies are less about the transformers and more about the humans.

[thereptileking1]

@MDthornton83 Yeah but It was also long as shit! Great movie though

[MDthornton83]

@thereptileking1 Not long enough, I'd say. Still though, the movie was okay for me.

[LegoCreations123]

Shia LeBeauf does a better job as Sam in Transformers 3

[Blankskeen]

@LegoCreations123 she didn't play as Sam-_- she played as Carly

[SkaterGirl206]

@Blankskeen SHE?? You do know that was Rosie Huntington-Whiteley that played Carly right or are just flat out stupid?

[EncycIopedia]

@Blankskeen Shia LeBeauf IS Sam. HE's a guy by the way.

[RexDude62]

He said devastator when blackout was on screen.

[agetro82]

The old Transformers theme sounds funny.

[TigerClaws12894]

Right, the first and the best of them all, the rest sucked Dx

[MultiFunkalicious]

I disliked the humour between tranformers and humans. Just didn't seem right. Also, they made Bumblebee out to be a little bitch in the 2nd movie.

[VenomessProductions]

Oh come on, the masturbating joke was hilirious! XD

[Xitaria]

That movie that I got in 2007 when It was Released on video, I loved it, now looking back at 2011, I still love it, I didnt even know the transformers were alien.

O.o

[GOTH86]

I didn't/don't give two fucks about the lovestory I just wanted to see the Transformers:P But overall: It's not THAT good as everyone said back in 07 and I'm sorry to say that I still prefer Transformers G1 and the old movie.

[moblepenpal2012]

@Terminatorzilla James has better tastes in movies in an adam of his body than u

[GTAjuan98]

Review 2 and 3 plzzz

[darthvenom30567]

the first and third one was pretty good however revenge of the fallen fucking sucked !!!!!!

[DudeandOtherDudes]

@moblepenpal2012 yeah but the blonde was a TERRIBLE actress.

[OldSkoolgamerz]

1st and 3rd ones were acceptable but 2nd one was bleh, only the action scenes and music redeemed it.

[Terminatorzilla]

another person saying transformers 2 sucked? Give it a break! That movie was kinda of boring at times but it is not the worst movie ever made.

[ianhobbs97]

2007-today is full of live action of 80s cartoons

[fishingguy1365]

i was pissed jazz died in it

[ShaDHP23]

Transformers - an in-your-face action film with some cheesey comedy in the mix.

Revenge of the Fallen - a cheese fest of an action comedy, nothing more.

Dark of the Moo - with the exception of the new girl and music video, it surpassed the first and redeemed the trilogy.

[MovieguruThe]

2:31

He's right, you know. ;D

[calahoon22]

WERENT HAPPY WITH THE MUSIC?!?! that was one of the best(if not the best) soundtracks I've ever heard!! I understand that you miten't be into soundtrack music but still, it was epic!

[roboguy75]

1st and 3rd=AMAZING

2nd=SHIT

[darthvenom30567]

@roboguy75 e the movies bay should be hanged for the 2nd one amirite ?

[roboguy75]

@darthvenom30567 yes

[moblepenpal2012]

Only problem slutty fox. Ok in the first but terrible in the second overall I loved the first. Watched every day in 5th grade bought every transformer. Second was ok I guess neat action but terrible development I mean there were too many autobots and desepticons with no back story whatsoever. Third was a great way to end the series I was a bit disappointed with the last segment with optimus nothing epic but thankgod they got rid of Megan fox and got someone with actual looks.

[Terminatorzilla]

Shut up you stupid film snob!!!!!

[Angel90900]

Heres how I rank the movies.

TF 1 - Fair enough and Great.

ROTF - Trainwreak, too many things that were not necessary put in the movie.

DOTM - A huge improvement over ROTF. Impressive, a joy to watch and everything was there when necessary. The best Transformers movie in the series. :)

[silverbeast75]

@Angel90900 perfect example of ther term 3rd times the charm

[BenLeFarfadet]

@Angel90900 Totally agry with you. DOTM blew my mind :D

[nightbane2]

@Angel90900 ROTF is the only Transformers that I actually have.

[KireektheAndroid]

@Angel90900 I loved all 3 but I thought that 2 was the worst. I liked 1 the most in my honest opinion.

[Frozone470]

@Angel90900 I completely agree with you

[Blarghurface]

@Angel90900 How the fuck? The Decepticons were pussies in the 3rd one. -_-

[TikiKingTito]

This one is awesome... the second one is poop.

[TrollReviewer]

the first year I saw this I became an ultra transformers netd for a whole year I thought it was boss. and to this day this is one of my fav movies

[StragonRage]

this movie sucks

[petplatypus]

@StragonRage how does it suck its freaking awesome

[AndrewWITHsquirrel]

One more thing its about jazz where the fuck is his built-in radio speakers on his cAr!!! That's why hes called jazz!!

[AndrewWITHsquirrel]

Seeing the 1st one in the movie theatre was unforgettable that whole year was all transformers for me. Heck I got 45 transformers action figures for christamas. Second movie, entertaining but not as good. 3rd it was ok but mostly fighting. And most of the time it felt like war of the worlds with all the spaceships.

[xChaotic81x]

the third movie is FUCKING AWFUL!!!!!!!

[ken01ization]

@xChaotic81x how? i thought it was better than both the first ones.

[petplatypus]

@xChaotic81x what its easily the best of the 3 and an awesome movie

[trancedsailor]

The live-action movies are awesome, but the 2nd one is my least favorite.

[Trisrocks13]

Thundercats?

[kingstonlj]

I turned off my dvd player after 1hour because I felt so wound up by how crap the movie is.... The movie lacks imagination, creativity, and is far too down to earth.... If only it had some 80s flair, colour and an upbeat vibe..... I wish someone eccentric, with a true love of Transformers had made it.... Pandering to the mainstream and being scared to think out of the box.... made this a bad movie.

[petplatypus]

@kingstonlj you couldn't be more wrong dude plus this isn't an 80s movie nor was it supposed to be like the cartoon it was just another adaptation of the toy line just like how the cartoon was based off the toy line stopping an hour in was stupid because there was nothing wrong with the movie up to that point and the movie is over 2 hours seriously you can't say a movie sucks without watch at least half of also it was creative

[RollerBall21007]

I LOVED the first one and i LOVED the second one. But i haven't and it will probably be a long time until i see the third. Kicking out megan fox was the worst fucking piece of shit move they coulda done. Not just cause she's extremly hot, also cause it was in transformers i first found out about her and her really hot body

[zeppelin1996]

@RollerBall21007 The new chick is pretty hot too lol.

[thegroove14]

the movies were good. not oscar material but damn entertaining

[LiquidEvolva]

Im a big Transformers fan and i absolutely hated all the 3 Transformers movies directed by Michael Bay. The only good thing in it is the cgi. All the rest is a huge piece of garbage. Im usually against any kind of remakes or reboots but i hope the Transformers franchise gets a reboot and that this time they make it properly. Michael Bay and Uwe Boll are the worse directors ever. They just suck.

[petplatypus]

@LiquidEvolva way hate them there all good

[MrSuperheromoviefan]

i tottaly agree

[TheColdplay200]

At 1:12 see the shirt that Sam is wearing ? I HAVE THE SAME ONE

[XxJ0K3RxX101]

at 1:50 as you can see no people or driver, just wanna throw that out there

[Gilgamesh0Genji]

over all i though it was good. but im not a transformers fantaic that has to have everything perfect. it lacks at that part, maybe because the whole crew who made the movie didnt understand the story line. the original. so many remakes of the series. lol. but i was good with the first movie. the second was ok and worth seeing. the third.......well blew my friends minds but me i just said eh. dont know. it kinda didnt blow my mind

[PhantomNexon334]

Oops I meant 0:53

[PhantomNexon334]

Who's dat at 0:35

[shrek740]

I freaking hate that kid shea or whatever

[smecking]

I hate these movies. I know I'm in the minority but I don't care. The story, acting, and dramatic sequences just left me cold- fucking ice, dead, cold.

[MaxterandKiwiKing]

The new Thundercats came out in 2011,actually.

[chiissu]

i avoid this movie fore fear i may enjoy it as mike bay hasnt been that good a director

but i just bought TRANSFORMERS THE HEADMASTERS on dvd and watched a bunch of eps

its kinda G1 but with more death and such

the animation is very G1 and the music is 80s at times and seems fine

after finding out of the japanese 80s tf years ago i wanted headmasters and now that its out it meets my expectations

if there was another animated tf movie it would satisfy the g1 fans and 80s survivors :D

[MIBsecretagent]

this movie sux stick with the 80s cartoon movie

[cooltravis5566]

michael bay sucks at directing end of story

[Christhefireshark]

I really hate this series. I think they were confused about whether they wanted an adult action movie, a shitty comedy, or a kids' movie. They marketed it like a kids' film. Glad to see the movie series full of random, obvious sex jokes has coloring books based on it!

---

I think they should just have made an action movie that was more light-hearted than adult. Like Rise of Cobra (which I enjoy for its cheese, action, and humor).

[puffpuffdustbunny]

there is a version its called transformers in a kids channel

[nightbane2]

They DID make a G.I Joe movie.

The Rise of Cobra.

[Silenthunter287]

I hate these transformers movies.The focus is entirely on annoying human characters,too much US military action,the transformers are treated like co-stars in their own movies,and Optimus Prime is barely in the film.The game adaptations plus War for Cybertron were awesome though.If they're gonna do a reboot,show us the actual war on cybertron.

[zupergozer]

the humans stand out like a sore thumb

[jayko657]

@zupergozer Well,duh,they look nothing alike the giant transforming robots of destruction,what else are they supposed to do?Try and camouflage themselves?

[SkaterGirl206]

2:40 That's really ironic now.

BOTH The Turtles and Transformers actually came out around the same year, 1984. And then, in 2007, its like they both made a comeback with a film of their own. It's nostalgia all over again! A trip back to the 80s i guess XDD

[MrWolfmanjack1]

1:19 Bernie Mac

[MonkeySharkPro]

Bad movie? Screw that! I watch these to see 2 hours of robots beat the shit of each other and blow shit up!

[SupremeCommander85]

WB planned on making a CGI ThunderCats movie but canceled it after the faliure of Speed Racer which was made by the same CG division

[Kaagh178]

Michael Bay mucked up, James. That wasn't Devastator, that was Brawl. Bay even admitted that he got the name wrong. The REAL Devastator turns up in the sequel.

[norncare1]

@Kaagh178 Devastator is his real name. His nickname is Brawl, cuz he likes to 'brawl' with autobots.

[Kaagh178]

@norncare1 Are you sure? Because they were two ENTIRELY different characters in the G1 continuity.

[caseyandholly123]

the actual movie isnt as good as the 1986 version

[Azikomar]

Loved Transformers 3 after seeing it. I liked this one too but second one was really rushed. Even actor for Sam said so. I guess they shouldn't make fourth if they don't make much efort to it. Great honesty James. I'm a big fans of yours! Don't stop making these vids.

[GangsterJoe101]

hey james if watch the end of the thundercats credits you can see that its made by laughing joke and numnuts(LJN)

[sustelsuk]

thundercats no but they new animated serie. as for gi joe don't ask

[protecterofwolves]

I personally loved this movie as well as the third movie. The second one was... meh. I think they could have done without Megan Fox and focused on the Transformers rather than a love story.

[GamingIdiot42Neo]

@RhysWickens I wouldn't say it's amazing, It was good, but not perfect But she was hotter than Megan Fox. But atleast Dark of the Moon wasn't as bad as Revenge of the Fallen.

[GamingIdiot42Neo]

Meh... this movie was okay... Definately not a must have, but everything about it I enjoyed, except Shia Labuttfuck and the dumb loves story, It was good otherwise.

[rockerMan0987]

I know the love story is shitty but this movie is bad ass

[AWSOMELYRAW]

I would give it a 6 out of 10 , if you are not familiar with transformers then you will like it more than a real hardcore fan

[tobluetoblack]

this movie was pretty awsome i mean i actually enjoyed the original series but this movie was just unbelievable

[SPeacock]

My personal opinion of Transformers (the 2007 film)? I give it 3 out of 5 stars. :)

[Protomanburst]

@trkoby sound wave couldn't have been a boom box because frenzy was a boom box in the first movie but sound wave car form was ok the only problem I had with him is that he was silver not blue.

[Protomanburst]

What about dark of the moon???

[metalmugen]

worst movie trilogy eveeeeeeer

[AlchemyAngelizBack]

I'm STILL waiting on that Thunder Cats movie! >(

[dragondisaster]

I love the Transformers designs in this movie, For all those who are like "Oh they're not G1 and they suck" can just go rewatch their 1980s cartoon DVDs and shut up. Living in the past does not make you a better fan. Oh and for those who claim CGI is lazy work compared to stop motion or whatever, the transformers in this film and sequels were time consuming efforts, not just a few clicks on a screen

[waterlemons46]

It was a decent attempt at trying to recreate the classics, but let's face it, that's nearly impossible.

[shikagrey]

I love the movies but it shows way too many human problems, especially in the third one.

[Beansncornbread2100]

Heh, if you want to see rushed endings, watch the sequels

[trkoby]

ANOTHER THING- speaking of Soundwave, WTF is wrong with keeping him as a boombox? Why does EVERY Transformer have to change into something with weapons? Why do all the decepticons have to be all pointy and jagged around thier edges? They make for shitty toys, too, all unbalanced and fragile. I miss Megatron's dome head and Gun form. This movie can suck my balls.

[trkoby]

AGREED. These movies are a fail to me, being 33 yrs old. Not suitable for my young kids, no value for me. My 5 year old enjoys G1 way more. One criticism you forgot- The new Bumblebee look SUCKS ASS!!! Why cant they just have the classic humanoid robot look? Why does he have to be a mute? FAIL.

[WhiteTigerRevenge]

The only thing that really bothered me about Transformers 2 is the voice for Sound Wave. It wasn't the same its like God Dam u Optimus, Megatron, and Star Scream sounded good but what about Sound Wave. He was one of my favorite characters.

[oddsenHELL]

james you should take a look at the 3 transformes if you hvnt seen it yeet. i thin u'r right the first one is okey but it is kind of slow sometimes. the second is like the endig of the first when the allspark is allmost destryod and they ends it with the 2. the 3.. doeasnt really have to mush to do with the first 2

[kristoria1]

This movie is where I 1st heard the word masturbation. A couple months after I saw it, I asked a friend at school what it meant and let's just say since then, 3 years after, my life has changed dramatically.

[izdatchu09]

I agree.. not that amazing..... good special effects but nothing beats the classics...

[Game1ngAssass1n]

What do you think of the 3rd movie?

[whaowman]

2:31

His wife gonna kill him.

[achievement84]

Where's that Thundercats Movie?

[smashpro35]

@achievement84 well, we got a new thundercats show coming up

[IINesasta]

As somone who grew up in the 90's knowing that transformers was a huge craze in the 80's

it makes me wonder if there's gunna be a hollywood style pokemon movie in the next ten years or so.

It would probably be shitty, but meh. Just a thought.

[ClawHunter2]

@IINesasta NO!! NO LIVE ACTION POKEMON!! No one would fit to be Ash...

[MonkeySharkPro]

@ClawHunter2 Why couldn't they just make a completely different story line and new characters? Besides, Ash is just little bitch now.

@MonkeySharkPro Well... I a
