And drive he does as Michael Bay translates the Transformers world of animation and toys to the big screen.
But before I get ahead of myself I have to admit I never watched even a single episode growing up.I had just hit high school and I wasn't interested.So there wasn't any real baggage involved either side of the coin.
Yet there I sat in the first public screening anywhere on the planet (June 12th in Sydney,Australia,with Michael Bay introducing it) and it just overwhelmed me and everyone else!There was never a dull moment,the script flowed easily,the acting was first-rate and the seamlessness of the CGI and live action was taken to another level.
It's going to be the hit of the summer and was better than any of the big third installment trilogies I have just also seen.And I love each of those franchises.
Congratulations on a movie that not only met expectations but exceeded them.
