The Transformers: The Movie

The Transformers: The Movie - Review








Information:


Genre: Animation, Kids & Family, Science Fiction & Fantasy
Rated: PG
Running Time: 1 hr. 24 min.
Distributor: Laurentiis Entertainment Gr
Directed By: Nelson Shin


Synopsis:
The Autobots must stop a colossal planet consuming robot who is after the Autobot Matrix of Leadership.

Review:
The spin-off from the ’80s promotional cartoon series about alien robots who can transform into earthly vehicles (and weapons, and animals, and electrical goods…), this feature-length battle royale drops you in at the deep end: unless you have perfect recall of the TV show, the opening half-hour is a bewildering barrage of unfamiliar characters and ongoing plot set against an unceasing stream of shoot-outs and explosions. No sooner have the dastardly Decepticons laid waste to the heroic Autobots’ home base than a planet-gobbling colossus – voiced, sadly, by Orson Welles – threatens the whole lot of them. From here the film actually unfolds in a reasonably engaging manner; one dramatically sophisticated sequence contrasting the goodies’ and baddies’ responses to their leaders’ respective demises stands out. The anime-inflected look is generally impressive too, although the power-rock soundtrack is unsalvageable.


Grade - C - Kids will be interested in this movie.
