On Sunday I found myself travelling 70 miles to go and see this film, as I wasn’t going to watch it in my local matchbox cinema. After arriving, I collected my ticket, my popcorn and a mahoosive drink as I was in for the long haul and then proceeded to screen 1, the best one in the house with the largest screen, comfiest seats and premium sound system; this made me happy in itself.
I sat there watching adverts for what seemed like and age, I felt like taking a track up to the screening room and clouting them across the head and saying get on with it! ive been waiting months for this film.
Eventually, 30 minutes after the film was supposed to begin, we were greeted with a 5 minute clip of the original film. Oh this bought back some memories, I was tiny when I watch it but you can never forget the “noise” or prime’s voice. This got me right in the mood for what was about to come.
The film started, with the explanation of the all spark, and how the auto bots and deceptacons are fighting over it, already I found myself thinking, this is going to be brilliant! Then onto the start of the film, ive never found myself trying to close my jaw, physically within the first 10 minutes. I had a feeling of Goosebumps as the chopper was cruising over the desert; only because I knew what was about to come from the trailers “sir 4500x was shot down 5 months ago!” I was like a kid at Christmas.
The first 30 mins of the film was just jaw dropping, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing basically, the CGI was brilliant the story was set and tbh I didn’t find the acting that bad atal, we are watching a film about giant robots from space after all.
I found the part when barricade and bumble bee were fighting spine tingling too. Bay has thrown some brilliant tracks into the film into the right places, it just makes you smile when the tunes start, and you know you’re in for a treat.
I must admit, one thing that’s really wound me up was frenzy, although it was quite funny as some times, I think they overused the character, it got a pounding and just didn’t want to bugger off basically.
I think the new designs defiantly were an improvement, although we loved it as a kid, I think it would have looked proper naff is they had prime as some big block built flat fronted truck ! Loud cars, Lorries, vibrant paintwork and loud noises does it for me. As for the deceptacons they did a brilliant job in making them look evil basically, with barricade being a bad ass mustang cop car, with a roar on it louder that a freaking 747 ! Hah.
I don’t want to go on too much otherwise you’ll get bored of reading if not already ! but basically this film is amazing, totally exceeded my expectations. CGI was mind-blowing realistic and there’s plenty of noise and explosions to please any bloke ! You find yourself walking out of the cinema looking at cars waiting for them to transform into a big ass auto bot !
LOVED IT, best film this summer easily, and cant wait for a sequel. Btw ive seen this 3 times already.
GOOOOO WATCH IT!
Hah, hope I haven’t bored u lot to much !
