[F]or parents, Transformers the Movie is a pleasant deviation from all the sugary sweet kids movies that pollute the shelves these days. There isn’t a moral, there isn’t a message, there isn’t hugging and singing and dancing and frolicking…it’s just robots blowing things up and telling you to buy stuff you can’t get anymore. So if your kids are sick of watching their hundredth Disney movie with the overbearing message that “Love is good†or “Family is cool†or “Always recycleâ€, then Transformers the Movie is a hardcore change of pace for 87 minutes.

By any sane criteria, The Transformers is a terrible, terrible movie. It has some of the worst feature film animation ever passed off on audiences anywhere, and its plot (Autobots vs. Decepticons by way of a planet-munching giant robot called Unicron) is as threadbare as anything Saturday morning has ever delivered.

"Just some brief feedback from a reader who saw screener footage of Transformers at ShoWest: "Just saw the ShoWest screener footage of Transformers at the studio. The movie is going to be a license to print money. The animation is Awesome. Probably Bay's biggest movie ever. Lots of blowing up, tossed tanks, and other fun stuff. The girl looks like a younger hotter version of Jennifer Connelly.

In other Transformers news, the live-action feature film, which is scheduled for release in the fall season of 2006 will more than likely receive some marketing parallel to the print publications in the near future. The feature film, with executive producer Steven Spielberg, will reportedly bridge all aspects of the Transformers universe where its storyline is concerned. The movie will be produced and developed by DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures.

When The Transformers: The Movie was released in 1986, it was one of the most poorly rated movies of its time. Notable movie guides by esteemed critics, including Leonard Maltin and Mick Martin, gave it the lowest rating possible. It was called an overblown marketing tactic, a 2-hour long toy commercial, a rip-off of every science fiction plot concocted in the minds of bored, daydreaming grade schoolers. Making only $6 million in domestic box office sales, it was ... a financial disappointment. That’s the type of punishment that should kill a movie forever.
