Transformers

I loved Transformers!

I can’t believe I gave CJ such a hard time about wanting to watch it day after it opens, in a crowded location, at 645.

Because it was good!!

My favourite (and probably everybody else’s)

Bumblebee!

I found it funny that it is released a week later in the States than in Asia, but I am not complaining.

Don’t know what all the critics were grumbling about in their reviews – ‘too noisy’, ‘too loud’, ‘no meaning to the movie’ etc.

It’s ridiculous! Sometimes people just want to watch a movie to have fun and be entertained, not be blown away by the message or moral to learn from the movie.

As to it being ‘too noisy’, erm… so they were expecting something quiet and serene and calm about a movie called ‘Transformers’, about robot machines fighting a war?

I can understand the fanatics of Transformers when they complain about the new machines not being classic, like the cartoon. The robots in the movie were very sleek, so different from the blocky, colourful cartoon Transformers.

But as a defense, it is always difficult to translate something from cartoon to real life. Of course the movie makers will change the robots and lose its awkwardness that is evident in the cartoon, because in real life, it is weird if they move around awkwardly. So its not going to match.

I liked the movie and would watch it again. I don’t think people should listen too much to those haughty movie critics.
