Transformers... More than Meets the Eye
 

Went to see this movie today. Best movie of the summer, hands down and no contenders.

If you like: fast cars, cool weaponry, cooler special effects, explosions, and good looking women, this is your movie.

If you liked Independence Day, you will love this one.

I've yet to see a Michale Bay film that, IMO, wasn't a waste of time and money and for that reason, I doubt I'll see this.

Very entertaining. No question, Bay is over the top. It somehow works though with big robot/car/transformers. This movie is hokey, entertaining and action packed. Very coo. Shia LuBouf is fabulous and the girl, Megan Fox, is as well.

Best time I've had watching a movie in a theater.

At the sake of sounding cheesy, I felt like a kid again watching it. While watching it sometimes I was grinning from ear to ear.

That movie was a flat out blast.

This describes my sentiment exactly!

Great fun!

You lost me at " If you liked Independence Day, you will love this one." That was one of my least favorite movies of the last 20 years.

I hated Independence Day. Should I see this movie?

Probably not. They are very similar.

One of my favorite sites is Metacritic.com. They basically compile every review available, assign each review a score and then give a metascore. Here's the link to the metascore for transformers.

What's most enjoyable is to move down the page and read the summaries of each different review. The further down the page the worse the review. The New York Times blurb leaves no doubt where they stand. The funniest summary comes from the Hollywood Reporter (they gave it the highest score) and reads:
