Went with a group of 6 people (me included)... I thought it was rather terrible...
I've never seen the show, but a friend of mine who has thought even less of the movie than I did (and made me nervous when he rushed out of the theater the second the credits began to roll, only to find out that the only reason he left was "Just to get out of that theater")...

However, the other 4 (all fans of the show) were all pleased...

So, "4 out of 5 Transformers fans recommend Transformers: The Movie (non-animated)"...

I thought it was cool... but I liked the cartoons as a kid. I don't know if that influences my opinion. There were a lot of corny scenes though.


Did anyone catch that crazy trailer for the movie by J.J. Abrams (LOST!!!)? The trailer was pretty sick and it had the whole LOST feel even though its about a Godzilla-like monster.

I cant find any information on the movie, though. It's known as Untitled J.J. Abrams Project and it is supposed to come out 1/18/08. It's gotten a temporary name though: Cloverfield. I can't find a good quality trailer though... most things I found were ****ty recordings from a theater.

i had a fun time at the show

i liked how the cast took their roles a little less seriously than they could have, it felt like the cast was having just as much fun getting in on the cartoony/campy feel of the movie.

i recommend it and i'd go as far as to say that was the most fun i've had at a movie this summer

I think that's what I appreciated about the movie. Yeah, it was a little questionable at points, but instead of making it ackward, they ran with it and I didn't cringe like I often do with those types of movies (X-Men, Spiderman, etc.).
