The very first time I saw a trailer for this I was eager to see it. The effects of the robots are amazing and makes everything more realistic. Michael Bay made sure the film had action throughout, while not neglecting the story.

By choosing two younger actors to play the lead roles, it allows for sequels for many years. Megan Fox is great eye candy for the males and Shia brings a warmth to his character that makes you want him to succeed in his quest for get the girl, and defeat the invading robots.
