The scale and momentum of the affair is so artistic and visionary it sets the standard for years to come. The human characters are just humans, not that interesting, but also somehow intriguing to watch. If this movie was all about humans, it would be dark and legendary. Though the robots themselves are so alive and humanlike, the attentive eye will find the same empathy in bumblebees nesting syndrome, optimus compassion, starscreams cowardice, devastators dog like following, and megatrons indifference to our existence. As Tyrese says, if god made us in his image, who made him (optimus). Well.. We did! Using our imagination, but created in our image.
