Advantages: Great graphics, enticing storyline
Disadvantages: a few dud lines, and the ending was too confusing

This is a strong movie, though perhaps not completely in the league of spiderman and batman. There is a strong element of marvel comics through the film, often with the director using multiple shots boxed in one screen to show different parts of the action occuring at the same time.

Advantages: Enjoyable Nostalgia
Disadvantages: No Extras

...at the height of the Transformers popularity. If you grew up in the 80s and were a Transformers fan this film should bring back memories. When it was released in cinemas, critics dismissed the film as a feature-length toy advert. I think that's a bit unfair though.
