"I bought a car. Turned out to be an alien robot. Who knew?" deadpans Sam Witwicky, hero and human heart of Michael Bay's rollicking robot-smackdown fest, Transformers. Witwicky (the sweetly nerdy Shia LaBeouf, channeling a young John Cusack) is the perfect counterpoint to the nearly nonstop exhilarating action. The plot is simple: an alien civil war (the Autobots vs. the evil Decepticons) has spilled onto Earth, and young Sam is caught in the fray by his newly purchased souped-up Camaro. Which has a mind--and identity, as a noble-warrior robot named Bumblebee--of its own. The effects, especially the mind-blowing transformations of the robots into their earthly forms and back again, are stellar. Fans of the earlier film and TV series will be thrilled at this cutting-edge incarnation, but this version should please all fans of high-adrenaline action. Director Bay gleefully salts the movie with homages to pop-culture touchstones like Raiders of the Lost Ark, King Kong, and the early technothriller WarGames. The actors, though clearly all supporting those kickass robots, are uniformly on-target, including the dashing Josh Duhamel as a U.S. Army sergeant fighting an enemy he never anticipated; Jon Voight, as a tough yet sympathetic Secretary of Defense in over his head; and John Turturro, whose special agent manages to be confidently unctuous, even stripped to his undies. But the film belongs to Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, and the dastardly Megatron--and the wicked stunts they collide in all over the globe. Long live Transformers! --A.T. Hurley

 Awesome January 9, 2009
D. Pruitt (Aurora, CO)
I originally purchased an HDDVD Player solely because Transformers was only on HDDVD (still paying for that mistake). I didn't think it would be a big upgrade from HDDVD to BluRay for Transformers but it is. It is huge especially the urban sequences. Also, decepticon faces are very visible and you can make greater sense of who is fighting in the final confrontation. This is the BluRay you must have if you want to show someone why to get one or just to show off.
Great Movie Great Price January 9, 2009
Joe Easter (Springfield, MO)
I bought this on a black Friday special for $9.99. Watching it again in Blu-Ray was a real treat, especially for that cheap. I think is actually more clear on my TV than it was in the theater.
Excellent Value January 9, 2009

Excellent Black Friday Value. Saved me from having to wait in line and possibly not receive the Blu-Ray I was looking for. For those of you looking to buy Blu-Rays on Black Friday, I noticed Amazon matched the prices of the big electronic retailers and you don't have to wait in the cold or miss you chance if you arrive late.
 Great movie! Mediocre transfer.... January 9, 2009
gherardini (S.V., AZ)
Enough has been said about the movie. Michael Bay did way better than anyone ever thought could have been done with the Transformers toys. I enjoyed the movie enough to purchase the Blu-Ray after I'd already had the DVD. While the Blu-Ray is better than the DVD, my feeling is that for a movie that was so heavy on digital effects, I would have expected a much better transfer, a sharper and crisper picture on those amazing action sequences. I was a bit disappointed.
Very, very entertaining January 8, 2009
Patrick W. Hopkins (Seattle, Washington)
Anyone who might otherwise pass on a movie based on Transformers, need not. This was originally recommended to me by my 13 year old nephew, and I figured it would be fun to watch it with him. What I found was a truly smart visually stunning and audibly amazing movie -
MUST SEE!!!!!
