Transformers
by Cinema Blend Movie Reviews June 28th, 2007 | Movie Reviews
ITransformersI is astoundingly goofy, but it knows its goofy and simply doesnt care, which is why Bays film is so much giant freakin robot fun. Theres no attempt to be serious. Thats not to say the movie doesnt try to be as real as it can be, after all the goal here is to take giant transforming robots and put them believably in our world. It attempts to seem real, but never at the expense of the essence of what the Transformers have always been. Because of that, ITransformersI isnt just dorky, its gloriously dorky.
