Transformers- they are MORE than meets the eye. Which I am so sure you already noticed without my intrusion. Anyway, the year is 2005 (NOOOOOOO- that's too close, man. It's scary, I tells ya!) and the Transformers are everywhere, as usual. A large planet (unknown at the time) is devouring everything in its path. It devours one with the Autobots (I think) on it, and everyone attempts to escape heroically. Not everyone does, though... -_-() Sucks to be them!
There is a kid back on Earth named Daniel. He is worried about his dad, because he is working with the autobots elsewhere in the universe. Daniel's having a merry old time fishing with Hot Rod, one of the Autobots. Suddenly, he gets a transfer that the shuttle (which his dad should be in, I believe) is landing! HOORAY! So he and Hot Rod take off to find the shuttle; and, all the while, cool 80's rock music plays in the background.
Anyway, the decepticons (they would be the evil people) find out that the autobots (they would be the good people) are planning on getting energy so they can retaliate against their armies. NOOOOOOOO! However, in the midst of battle, Megatron (the decepticon leader) is hurt badly, and thrown out as junk. He crosses paths with Unicron (the planet that devours everything), ok, so Unicron summoned him. It tells Megatron that it will give him a new body and some defense, but only if he will take care of the "Matrix." Megatron then becomes Galvatron and he runs off in search of the Matrix. This is no easy task, mind you.
There are decapitations (only of robots), and one swear word. Lots of explosions and gooey things. Fun, fun fun! However, I get a sneaking suspicion that it was SLIGHTLY edited. Hmmmm... you'd never guess that when American companies release a Japanese product in the mainstream...
Storyline
5/5 It was surprisingly good for transformers!

Overall goodness
5/5 It was sad in a part and happy in others. Then in yet other parts it was COOL.
Totals: 47/50, I wanna buy this. I borrowed it from my buddy, Vanessa! She's one of the biggest Transformer fans I've ever met... hehehe.
Okay, everyone. There were too many "bots", "trons" and "gons" for me to remember everyone's name. Besides, they were CHANGED!! There are these evil robots that ae known only as "Decepticons". They are bad. Then there are the "Autobots". These are happy robots that work together! Hooray! Yeah, ANYWAY. So the Decepticons are out to kill the Autobots because they are in war. The leader of the Autobots has a thing called "The Matrix". No, not the weird poses with the funky comera angles. It's glowing and blue; it will save you in your darkest hour. Well, there's something out there that wants it. Surprise, surprise. It's called the Unicron. (I think.. don't quote me on that) Well, the Unicron can devour anything and everything. It is bad. It is yellow. So, robots are all over, trying to save themselves, the Matrix, and all of humanity. (this consists of two people that we get to see).
Storyline
5/5 Yeah! TRANSFORMERS! MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE!
Character Development
5/5 They change, grow, blah blah blah. Grimlock is odd.

5/5 Oh yeah! Look at those robots get it orrrrrrrn. None, actually. ^_-
Nudity
5/5 The robots wear nothing, but there's no detail.
Violence/Gore
3/5 Lots of robots getting killed. No REAL blood. But robot heads floating around, and arms and legs get severed, robots die, etc etc.
Animation
5/5 It was excellent for the time it was made!! Could ALMOST pass for now! 80's forever!
Profanity
5/5 It SOUNDED like "D*mn *t!" (aren't I clever?) But, since this is a children's release, I have to assume it wasn't.
Overall goodness
5/5 DARE TO BE STUPID! And watch Transformers (robots in disguise)! All in all, a fun romp. (oh no, too much time around the anime guru - Kip)
Totals: 48/50, Very nice and explosive! Quite cheesy, too.
TOTALS PUT TOGETHER: 47.5/50.
***We borrowed this from our friend, Vanessa. Thanks, poop buddy (don't ask if you don't know. It's not like it sounds, trust us!).***
