"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

 Great movie! Mediocre transfer.... January 9, 2009
gherardini (S.V., AZ)
Enough has been said about the movie. Michael Bay did way better than anyone ever thought could have been done with the Transformers toys. I enjoyed the movie enough to purchase the Blu-Ray after I'd already had the DVD. While the Blu-Ray is better than the DVD, my feeling is that for a movie that was so heavy on digital effects, I would have expected a much better transfer, a sharper and crisper picture on those amazing action sequences. I was a bit disappointed.
 A Great Time and Money Well Spent January 8, 2009
R. Krautbauer (Minnesota)
Truly entertainment you won't fall asleep while watching. BIG...this movie is big time fun. We all really enjoyed watching it, brought back many memories. Kept you hanging on right up through the end. Good for just about any one, okay rated PG-13. So parents need to use their own judgment here. But young and old will enjoy this action packed film.
Good movie, Blueray is crisp January 7, 2009
Alexander A. Williams
Pros: action movie, some comedy, Lebouf is good, Bluray is crisp, nice, sound is great, much better watching this on HD TV than not
Cons: Transformers are sometime corny, they aren't faithful to cartoon/toys/even names at times, focus too much on humans and not... the Transformers
Still fairly good movie in my opinion.
 YAWN!!! January 7, 2009
patchsgal (TN, USA)
I bought this for my son who is nuts over the Transformers toys. It didn't even hold his attention for 5 minutes. The husband and I tried to watch it also but were bored to tears. If you like sci-fi type stuff you may be able to withstand the deluge of laser and things but we were not.
Reference picture and sound! January 7, 2009
Jeff S. Crenshaw (Sparks, Nevada)
I have become more of a fan of this movie since owning it on blu-ray. I previously owned the DVD version because I didn't want HD-DVD, and I wasn't as excited about the film as most people. However, I got the Blu-ray version at a great price and now I really enjoy the movie. The visuals and the sound are among the best I've ever experienced and Blu-ray truly brings the viewer in touch with the director's intentions and experiece. If you are like I was, on the fence about this movie and you don't own the Blu-ray, get it and you won't regret your purchase!
