Review: Transformers


Hasbro's classic battle between the Autobots and the Decepticons had a cinematic reboot with the release of Transformers in 2007. The Transformers' home planet of Cybertron is destroyed by a war that broke out between the Autobots and the Decepticons, who once lived in peace. Both sides are looking for the All Spark, the Autobots to end the war and rebuild Cybertron, and the Decepticons to destroy the Autobots and take over the universe. The war is taken to Earth, where a highschool student named Sam WitWicky holds the coordinates to the All Spark without knowing (the coordinates are microscopically engraved into his great-great grandfather's glasses). Sam buys a Camaro (Bumblebee) and Bumblebee leads the Autobots to Sam and he helps tham find the All Spark.
Transformers is visually great. The use of CGI is perfect. The story is not too bad and the acting also not too bad. So all-in-all, this is a movie that isn't great but it is worth seeing.

7/10
