I saw the Transformers movie last night. I thought I would feel out of place in the theatre and was one of the first to sneak in, but everyone who followed was a late twenty to thirty-something all sneaking in to see if their favourite die cast friends from the 80′s. It was funny, fast, and full of robots beating the crap out of each other. Nice. However they could have spent a bit more time developing the characters and the special bond between Optimus and Megatron. Yes I am kidding. I loved all the subtle jokes of things being more than meets the eye, all the old wrecks throughout the film of the old model transformer cars, and the fact that the only time the Autobots needed to be robots in disguise they were somewhat conspicuous on Sam’s father’s back lawn.
