Took my son to see it. We really liked it. The Saleen police car had to be my favorite, but I had to admit the Camaro was bad a$$. When Bumblebee got his feelings hurt about being called a piece of junk and turned into the concept camaro the packed theater roared with applause.
"This car's got feelings, and now you ****ed him off!"
I saw it yesterday and it was awesome!
Definately two thumbs up from me!!

It's a POS.
Whoever wrote the script must be a a high school dropout along with the two bimbos who didn't fare any better specially the one with the over done English accent.

Funny how people either loved it or hated it. In my opinion , one of the best movies I have seen in a LONG time. 
Definitely blows any other movie so far this year out of the water.
I was laughing at the "cheesy" "corny" scenes; they were hilarious.
Only complaint I have on this movie is the fight scenes you really had to pay attention to see who was who at times. But the fight sequences rocked.
My son loved it as well as me, and we are 11 and 36. Reaches all generations, not just the kiddies .

Don't believe me? It's now officially listed as "rotten".
Hell, I still have plenty of toys, models, etc. from my childhood proudly displayed on shelves.
You can take the man out of the boy, but you can't take the boy out of the man.
I have no idea what that means.
Hot, sweaty, tanned chicks won over by nerdy guys, sophomoric humor, cool cars that turn into robots, violence, plenty of action and stuff that blows up, militaristic jingoism, video game pacing...and lots and lots of CGI. It’s every 16 year-old boy’s fantasy wet dream come true. It’s also a steaming pile of crap. Makes Pearl Harbor look like Bridge on the River Kwai by comparison.
I can hear Michael Bay now: “Story? We don’t need no stinkin’ story! We have an entire warehouse full of Silicon Graphics workstations for crissake – now let’s make a movie!”
Maybe I'm just gettin' old.

I saw it with my wife and kids we all had fun watching it;even my wife and she usually doesn't like any movies except chick flicks. Was it deep and thought provoking Oscar material? No. Was it action packed, fun entertainment? Heck yeah!
Truth is, I was actually looking forward to this thing. But all Hollywood makes now are remakes and videogame adaptations for 17 year-old boys. And I guess the problem is that I'm not 17 anymore.
Things don't HAVE to be either/or, you know. They could have dispensed with the human cast in this film altogether - in fact, it probably would have been better. Even Live Free or Die Hard was better than this, mostly because Bruce Willis has enough acting chops - and his McClane character is well-developed enough - that it made it a fun romp, even though the action was, once again, physically impossible.
MY idea of a movie that has a great balance of story, suspense, characterization AND action is The Hunt for Red October. That's a great example of a movie that has it all. But once again, I guess that's an action film for adults. Transformers has been totally marketed to kids.
My offical take on it is... if you get past three things, it's bad ***:
1) The small Decepticon that is always muttering stuff really fast. Too Jarjar.
2) The Autobots all have the same personalities that they had in the cartoon. There is the cool one, the tough one, the nice guy, etc. It's a little cheesy to see their personalities come out through their badass robot exteriors.
3) Optimus Prime saying, "My bad."
I'm a little biased because I grew up on the cartoon. In fact, it's the only cartoon I really remember loving. So to me, it's worth seeing twice.
My only regret is that James Cameron wasn't the director. Why oh why wasn't James Cameron the director?? Sigh...
