Don't listen to those bad reviews!

If you're a fan of Transformers (meaning you liked the last two films) you'll enjoy this movie!
Its true to the other Transformer films but a bit more fun in my opinion. Still has hilarious moments, quirky characters, a great cast, amazing effects...just a fun film to see.
I saw it in 3D and 30 seconds into the film I was like a kid on Christmas morning. This film is BRILLIANT in 3D...and I'm not even a huge 3D fan.
I loved the recasting of Sam's girlfriend...I was worried at first but they pulled it off with just a brief awkward moment at the beginning of the film (just for me at least).
So if you liked the other movies you won't be disappointed with this one. In fact, it may be one of my favorites. Don't listen to those nasty reviews and go have fun!

Just a waste of time...

The movie had funny characters and funny situations but the plot was severely lacking. There was no clear main character or theme and several choices the characters made did not make any sense. Overall, the movie lacked focus and depth and just didn't bring anything new to the screen.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Thought I would hate it...

But I didn't! While my husband said, "that wasn't as good as Transformers," he was accurate. I could see the big budget scenes and where they clearly spent their money while at other times it seemed as if I was watching computer graphics a 12 year old made. Plot wise, they held a complete story together throughout the entire movie, threw in some twists that I really didn't see coming and left it open for a sequel in the end (of course). Overall this was surprisingly good and interesting to watch. Not anything I'd see over and over again but if a sequel was released I'd go see that as well and I'd recommend it to others.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Cute and funny but typical...

Another fun and humorous romantic comedy but this one doesn't bring anything new to the screen. Butler and Heigl have great chemistry and they keep you watching and interested but the comedy set ups and ending are not new and you see them all coming.
This is a fun movie to see, both my husband and I enjoyed it and were able to agree upon seeing it...which is rare. But its nothing to write home about.

After seeing trailers for this movie, I had every intention of hating it. But there was nothing else showing this weekend and my husband wanted to see it so we went.
This was the most touching, original story I've seen in years. It is a beautiful tale of humanity. I literally laughed and cried several times during this movie. Adults should go see this and while kids may not get every moment, they will like it too. This movie has heart. Thanks Disney for another winner!

Cute and not annoyingly predictable.

I really didn't expect to like this movie as much as I did. I expected it to be funny and have some "awww" moments but I was happy that the characters actually had depth, the story had a well-rounded and complete plot and I enjoyed it (hey, even my husband liked it).
Minus the tens of screaming teens in the theater having melt downs in their seats whenever Zac Efron came on screen, I really liked this movie. I do suggest seeing in with an adult audience during a non-peak time to avoid the drooling 8th graders. ;)
