Robot War

This live action movie has been a long time coming. I loved playing with Transmorpher toys as a kid and watched the Saturday morning cartoon show religiously. I'd drive my parents nuts singing the catch phrase "Transmorphers, robots in the skies" over and over again. I bawled my head off when Optimist Prime died. So, you can imagine how stoked I was as an adult man, pushing forty to discover they were making a Transmorphers live action movie. I was even more excited to discover my local Blockbuster had an advance copy of it BEFORE IT WAS RELEASED IN THE THEATERS! But, after watching it, let me tell you--this movie doesn't live up to the hype! I didn't expect it to follow the plot of the original 1986 cartoon movie, Transmorphers: The Movie, but seriously, I expected to see some familiar characters. I was hoping for some of my favorite Oddobot characters like Honeybee, Chazz, or Ironside. No luck. I thought they would at least have some of the Deceiticons like Sunscreen or Magnadoodle. Also no luck. Now that Hasbro bought Tonka, perhaps the producers of the movie tried to save money by using some of the lesser known Gobot characters? Anyway, if you're a fan of the old Transmorpher toys or cartoons, don't bother with this movie... Oh, what am I saying? I don't care how bad this movie was, TRANSMORPHERS RULE! TRANSMORPHERS, MORE THAN MEETS YOU OR I...

PUBLIC NOTICE! "TRANSMORPHERS has been renamed, "TRANSGARBAGE" - Like most, if not everyone else, I thought I was buying THE MOVIE "TRANSFORMERS". No doubt that was Leigh Scott's idea!!! A sucker born every minute! Please, please tell me that this was a "home made movie"; I'll feel better about it, as I cannot believe ANYONE in the movie business is capable of such sheer lack of ability. Even as a home made movie it would be bad. And the 'acting', well, when you can't act, 'act' in a Leigh Scott 'movie'. If I made this 'movie' or 'acted' in it, I would hide my shame by becoming a recluse. Mr Scott, Pizza Hut are looking for delivery boys, bet you can do that. Hhhmmm, then again .......

amazingly i actually sat through the entire movie praying that it would get better. i then spent a day wondering if i had dreamt that a movie could be so bad and unfortunately i wasn't dreaming.

to start off with there is the acting it was like the director just fell asleep and forgot to direct it was incredibly bad. then there are the special effects which honestly look like they were done before computers were invented.

then the story which could have been pretty good was let down due the fact that the plot was lost in the first few minutes.

i recommend staying as faraway form this movie as is humanly possible.

Seriously! this movie is so damn bad you can't miss this! It's like a staple in how bad a movie can go! bad acting, horrible effects for a movie that was not made in the 80s, terrible plot, and the fights! lol I laughed so hard at the fight scenes! At some points of the movie you can actually see some actors giggle at the shittyness that is going on! I'm telling you, you CAN'T miss this. I doubt there will be a sci-fi movie as bad as this one, EVER!.

I bet a lot of people will get this anyways, as it's obviously marketed so people mistakenly pick it thinking it is transformers (as a friend of mine did when he picked this gigantic turd!). MUST WATCH!

low budget doesn't mean bad movie and there are numerous examples to prove it. but movie maker has to have an idea or at least try to be original and creative. this movie "borrows" all the lamest Hollywood clichés and puts them into zero budget project without adding any shred of originality. so even tho the low budget doesn't mean bad movie, bad acting, bad script, bad directing and bad technical production do. and this is probably the worst movie i have seen in a long time. one good point was the fact that futuristic society was governed by women. if they had machine guns instead of plastic toys and were half-naked this movie would be watchable. this way it just hopes to cash few bucks transmorphing incoming transformers title. bad.
