There is a lot to like. If you had the pleasure of bearing witness to "Transformers: The Movie" in the 80s then you'll see some stark similarities. Goofy robot/machine puns, the honest and sincere effort to mix dark and gritty with the bright, colorful, and whimsical, and of course some pretty damn good action. The character development of D-16 into Megatron and Orion Pax into Optimus Prime hits really well, and gives a really good spin on an origin story we've seen only a handful of times. Using bits and pieces from Transformers media before it, this movie blends everything into a cinematic experience that not only kids can get into but fans of Transformers from G1 to Michael Bay can appreciate. Most importantly the movie knows when to be serious and when to joke. The only gripes I had were: Pacing relative to runtime.

This film...this piece of pure unadulterated cinema is priceless. There is not any word in the international lexicon to describe this film. By the way trust me it is FILM. From start to finish you will be entertained, whether you view this movie from the serious nature it was intended for or as the comedic masterpiece it became. No movie, whether it be comedy, drama, or romance can match this film's unintended nuance. Do not be fooled by negative reviews, this is THE FILM to watch. Thank you so much Tommy Wiseau for having the grit and determination to finish this.
