Movie reviews: The Transformers (2007) – Part 59

Finally a movie which I feel is a real BLOCKBUSTER of 2007, so far ! Spidey-3, Pirates-3, Harry Potter,Shrek-3,Rush Hour-3..the so called big movies were all disppointing. Transformers is not, provided you keep your brain back at home and yes, watch it ONLY and ONLY on the big screen.

When I saw the movie, I had no idea about the plot. The movie begins with a narrator hinting an alien invasion on earth (Yes, yet again!).But still for the first 20 mins I was trying to figure out what this movie is all about.Trust me, it was real fun as I just couldn’t guess what is going to happen next. But after some mind boggling action sequences when I got a hold of the script , I felt now I’m not going to enjoy the rest of the movie as I started to predict the proceedings.But thankfully i was wrong!

Script/Plot is not the strength of the movie at all.The outstanding special effects,wonderfully shot action sequences and excellent humor will keep you glued to your seats.Though you will know what will happen but you will be keen to know how that will happen and the final outcome will surely not dissappoint you.There is not much scope for humans to act as the Robots have stolen the show with their action scenes and funny dialogues.I was really amazed by the quality of humor in the movie as you don’t expect people to laugh when the earth is attacked.But mark my words, you will laugh! Funny one-liners, situational comedy,whacky charecters..it has got all.

Though it is a typical good/evil war with we humans unfortunately involved , Spielberg has made sure that the movie has enough to captivate your “visual” senses and entertain you at the end of the day.

Isn’t “getting entertained” the real reason why we visit movie-halls?
