Transformers sucks .... mengarut...

I watched Transformers last weekend, regret!! First time to Cineleisure (The Curve). The place is super huge. Anyway... the movie flopped big time. After waiting in anticipation... what a disappointment. WHY?
10 reasons:
1. This movie was made for the demographic masses and not for real fans like me who watched this cartoon series since young. The whole movie lacked focus, rojak components and the storyline was written for 6 year olds. Gone are the great robot cartoons of the 80s and 90s. I really feel cinemagoers in Malaysia... going backwards.

2. The Hero (Sam) is some wimpy perverted nerd who talks too much. You will notice similarity with other Hollywood no brainers... weak hero gets the girl. Nerdy talk, bad jokes and lotsa self pity. I guess these are the type of guys paying for the tickets anyway these days and prob brought some girl to the cine to impress... and feel good afterwards. You really think in the real world this kinda fellas become heroes? How corny!!

3. All Spark? How lame!!! Why would the mighty Megatron be so stupid to crash on the artic and get frozen? They are suppose to be super smart? The All Spark looks like some really dumb playing cube... what... is this a rip off Superman? Kryptonite?

4. Notice how stupid Bumblebee looked? He has really 'cute' and 'pityful' eyes ... I suppose its to please the cutie girls watching the movie. All the robots have weird looking faces... they have no character or genuine features to remember. After watching the movie... do you really remember how Prime and the rest of the Autobots look like? No.. because you were too busy pitying that weak and retarded Sam. In the original cartoon... you can clearly remember their faces and character.

5. The jokes are sooooo lame. Though some of it is quite funny... 80% of it gets irritating after 45 mins. We are not watching comedy here... we want action. We want to see robots fighting and lotsa ammunition. We don't want to know Sector 7... we don't want to know the corny parent-child jokes... we surely don't need idiotic teenage pity. How stupid they looked searching for the eyeglasses. Don't let me start on that eyeglasses.

6. Notice the action scenes are too fast? The transformation of the Decepticons and Autobots looked rushed after 45 mins. The fight scenes are so short. They use speed to cover up the bad CGI work. The movie editing is also horrible... you get scenes cut and actions end suddenly. The first 45 mins were interesting but as soon as the Autobots landed... it seems the CGI developers were rushing for time because they are late for delivery or probably spent too much time developing the first 45 mins. This reminds me of the last few Star Wards episode... they add so much complexity that the real flow and essence disappears.

7. Why do the Decepticons blow up an army base in Qatar to get all that secret info? Doesn't it sound stupid to attack an army base with all that stupidity just to connect to the American military network? Errrr.. if you can hack the network in "less than a minute when its built to withstand 20 years".. you can just intercept their communication line right? That Aussie accent... oh God. How did the Decepticons find out about Project Iceman in the first place? Why hack the military network? Aaaarrrrghhhh... bodohnya.

8. These robots never seemed human... the movie is about them... NOT that pathetic pervert Sam. The robots seems too metallic and without any character. At least the cartoons had some life in them. Do we really need to know about Sam and that hot girl? Do you really think in the real world... the hot chick goes for guys like Sam? Oh... maybe... you need an alien invasion for that to happen!!

9. Rachel Taylor the aussie hacker... errr.. what the hell is this? What did she ACTUALLY find out from the hacking? She found out 2 waves sound the same... like that is some super smart hacking. They have all the people in Pentagon.. but a hot chick with mini-skirt is the smarter one. And... what is that black dude all about... he could detect alien programming languages from his home PC? Can this get anymore ridiculous? The interrogation room scene looks more like up Eddie Murphy's alley.... loud shouting and verbal abuse.

10.The last scene is classic moronic Michael Bay... where is Sam running to with the All Spark? Where is he taking it too and what is the purpose of Autobots defending him? To run where? The Autobots could have just flown it out of this world ... the US Army is going to do that? Errr... all communication is down... and they need to use code? Where are they running to??????

Think carefully about this movie. Its a sign of our times.
