I was not a child in the Transformer era... so the story and back characters, mean little to me,, so I have to judge the movie against the backdrop of movie buff/reality/comic geek good sense,,Movie gets plenty of style points, great visuals, fight scenes and exactly the pace you would expect,,...however --lots of gaping plot holes on the human side of things....scenes jump from point to point at times without explanation---How Sam and chick run from one side of desert to the other in what is probably 115 degree heat, but are never thirsty---when the robots fight sometimes you can't see who's winning or whats happening...It just looks like mechanized parts swirling around,...one must need "video game vision" to clearly define exactly what just happened...oh wait,, micheal bay is going to slow it down for us so we can discern exactly how bad ass a director he is,,thanks..I know I'm thinking too much, but I never asked questions like this about Iron Man---I think the 1st Transformers was better---however--the female transformer was cool---Sam's brain being hijacked was cool---I was pretty sure they would just take his whole body there at the end and he would just be half man half Transformer....aaaannnnnnddd Cue Third SEQUAL!!++ "Terminator 2015-The end of the world"--(suggested title)--Tie-in!
