Saw the film.

Yep it ain't Godfather but its giant robots for fecks sake!

I think the film is as good as it was going to get. I enjoyed it more than Harry Potter and Shrek. About equal to spiderman3.

Not the best action film ever...no where near but I wasn't in the mood to ask for my money back.

At least it didnt take itself too seriously. 6 out of 10 is about right.

I saw the new Harry Potter film too- much better, I reckon. Pretty ace, in fact. Skillfully pared away all the rubbish that made that book about 25% too long, too.

Don't like Harry Potter...at all.

The film was boring. I was watching the film and thought that it needed giant robots that can turn into cars and stuff. But got some wand waving stuff instead. And JK Rowling is a millionaire. God, some people...tsk.

Autobots....roll out!

Saw it last night and thought it rocked, as did my girlfriend.

Don't go in expecting a wonderfully convoluted plot line with intrigue and mystery. Go in to see a bunch of huge feckin' robots pummeling each other to bits...

Now that was the kind of review that I wanted to here . None of this " I think the actors were weak and lacked direction" tosh!!!!

Robots fighting with loud noises and explosions. I'll book my ticket.

And its nicely set up for a sequel too, especially seeing what happened to some of them at the end (geek fans who know the old cartoon series and where the Decepticon base is located will know what Im on about)

Good film, fantastic effects which look ace on the big screen. Not the most well written plot ever but a good action flick none the less. And seeing Prime transform for the first time was superb! Shame there was only his voice that was original from the cartoons, but you cant have it all I suppose.

Hee hee - the little 'ninja' Decepticon is twee - in fact the who film is very funny...

... if you like your humour cheese flavoured. 50' tall robots playing hide and seek in your front garden - only to be told that 'turning back into a truck parked on the lawn is not hiding'.

It's big, fast, loud, contains many explosions for no other reason that they are cool, as well as the obligatory tough music video sequence and lots of shooting - ineffective shooting, but it's still shooting.

And you learn that not all mobile phones are made in Japan! See - educational too!

Hell - if they ever did a Q & A after a Michael Bay film he could only stand and shout "Are you not entertained?" And you are.
