Transformers

Roger Ebert wrote a review on Transformers on July 2, 2007. He gave the movie 3 stars. Ebert found both positive and negative things about the movie. He said, “It’s goofy fun with a lot of stuff that blows up real good, and it has the grace not only to realize how preposterous it is, but to make that into an asset.” He says how the high school situation between Sam and Mikaela could have been its own teenage comedy without the transformers. He would have given the movie 4 stars, but the battle scene got him bored. He liked how the cars looked, but it didn’t seem possible for that to ever happen. He thought it was too long and that they didn’t need to go on and on. He believes, “you could bring it in at two hours by cutting CGI shots, and have a better movie.”
