transformers
@ the cathay with alvin

i am sure i am not the only one who grew up loving these robots and awed in wonder at their ability to transform..so when the movie was first announced, naturally it became one of the must-watch movies! however, first impressions from trailers and newspapers meant that i approached this with equally as much skepticism as enthusiasm..especially after my not-so-great experience with the last cartoon recreation - the teenage mutant ninja turtles. but skeptics fear not, from the get-go, the movie grabs hold of you and never lets you go..the cgi is wonderfully done and the transforming is quite a sight to behold..the action scenes are well paced and nicely spread out..even during the non-action scenes, lots of hilarious moments are added in to keep the movie going..sure there are minor points like how bumblebee is not a sports car and megatron is not a plane and how the final fight scene gets a bit confusing and messy..even then, it does not spoil the movie as a whole..the only letdown for me is the lack of airtime for my favourite character - starscream..but if you grew up watching and loving the cartoon series as i did, this show is a surefire must-watch!

i am becoming so horribly absentminded, i am getting worried..did i really order mango sago? -_-"
