-Transformers (PG-13)
by Dr. D ~
Paramount and Universal pictures, July 2007, Directed by Michael Bay, 144 minutes.
This is one of those movies which are perfect for a father and son or a grandfather and grandson to view together. Continual action and loud noise throughout. Those in their 30’s will recognize the characters which were popularized by Hasbro Toys and by the animated TV series in the 1980’s.
‘The Transformers’ try to save the human race from the evil ‘Decepticons’, a major battle at the end pits the Transformer’s leader Optimus Prime against his evil nemesis Megatron. Prime save the day and in a sacrificial way he saves the planet and all humanity. A wonderful good vs. evil/ good triumphs story. *Top
