Being a huge fan of transformers, of the
toys and anime as a kid and the totally awesome movie franchise as an adult,
this has been a highly anticipated movie from my side ever since I saw the
first trailer. Back then I took it as I saw it, Rocky meets transformers. Lead
star: Wolverine. [Me, also being a huge fan of X-men]
I have to admit my first assessment of the
movie was perhaps a tiny bit of. There are no transforming robots in this movie
and no sweaty, beat up guy, from Philadelphia hollering
about Adrian
Nevertheless, the movie is not to be
missed. It has a good pace, a nice mix of slow drama scenes and major action
sequences, superb special effects and is masterfully directed. Granted, the
plot is far from complicated, the clichés are lining up just to be ticked of
every ten minutes. But what do you expect? It’s an action movie about boxing
robots(!) made for the big screen and a broad audience [the audience in this
case being mainly of the male gender].

movie year 2012? Start here!
