Review of Transformers (2007) by Dragonwarrior69 — 26 Jan 2022
People understandably like to talk smack about this franchise, but this first movie is honestly really good. They actually tried to make the humans interesting and entertaining to watch, the Decepticons all look distinct and are genuinely menacing, the Autobots have some personality, (and the scene where they have a meeting by the observatory is excellent) and the plot doesn't get too confusing. The CGI still holds up, and honestly looks better than a lot of other 2020s blockbusters.
Basically, they actually tried with the first movie and it mostly paid off.
Too bad the sequels failed to realize what worked about this movie and build up from there, instead never coming close to matching this one's genuine quality and effort.
