This is a great movie based upon an even better cartoon series and it is classic. I was trying to conceive of how they were going to make this into a movie but Michael Bay did a wonderful job of bringing this cartoon series to the "big screen". He brings all of the great characters from the television series to life and the computer generated effects coupled with the live action shots are awesome!
Not too mention there is more eye candy like Megan Fox sweating, and running in a skimpy outfit this movie is a little boys dream and some big boys as well. If you like action you don't even need to know the plot, but here it is in a nut shell.
Sam Witwicky, played by Shia LaBeouf, is the great grandson of an explorer who discovers one of the Decepticons encrusted in ice in Antartica. Well inadvertently Sam alerts the Decepticons to his whereabouts and that he has a map to discover the "Cube", which is the source of power for the former inhabitants of the planet Cybertron. Too keep it short the inhabitants of Cybertron are the Decepticons who are the "bad robots" and the Autobots who are the "good robots".
The war on Cybertron destroyed their planet and now they have carried the war to earth and are fighting over our world. Optimus Prime leads the Autobots while Megatron is the leader of the Decepticons. These robots can transform themselves into cars, airplanes, etc. which allows them to go unnoticed to humans.
Sam has a map to the Cube and is wanted by both sides and the ensuing movie is just a series of chase scenes and fight scenes to help keep him alive and keep the Decepticons from stealing the Cube. Megan Fox plays an unwitting witness to the whole situation when Sam picks her up in his new car. Regardless of the plot this is a great action flick and if you have surround sound and a big tv, crank it up loud and enjoy. Worth adding to your Queue.
