    Let me cut to the chase: THE GOOD PARTS of this movie are Shia Lebeouf's acting, the comedy scenes involving the human characters, the incorporation of modern elements like eBay and the US defense net into the story, the making of a rather obscure Decepticon (Blackout) into a credible and powerful threat, and the action sequences where the camera WASN'T shaking while zooming in to show every screw and washer on the robots. The BAD PARTS about this film include poor colour schemes of the Decepticons that made them hard to distinguish from one another during the fights, the disappearance of Barricade, the lack of dialogue for most of the Transformers (especially the Decepticons), the fact that Frenzy gets the most screentime but doesn't speak a word of English, the messed up subtitle that identified Brawl as Devastator, the paper-thin characterization of the Autobots, the non-existent character development of the Decepticons, the fact that ONLY ONE Decepticon gets taken down by an Autobot without human assistance, and that silly hand-held camera that pulled in much too tightly, making many of the action sequences confusing, hard-to-follow, and almost unwatchable. The designers really have to revamp the look of the Decepticons in the sequel to make them easier to identify and the writers need to give the bad guys personalities. This could have been a great movie but its many flaws keep it from achieving that status.
