It's good. Definitely the best Transformers movie to ever release. I honestly could only make it through half of the first Transformers movie before calling it quits for the entire series. (seriously, does ANYONE like Ledouche's character?)

This should be a much needed restart for the series, not just a prequel. It tells a coherent story with real characters, heart (bumblebee and the girl comforting each other are some of the best scenes), a competent military ("Do you seriously believe we should trust these guys? I mean they're called 'Decepticons'!"), and action scenes that are exciting and easy to follow and not headache inducing.

The story is basically E.T. only with Transformers and it works well. It has sad moments, funny moments (without resorting to stupid juvenile humor), and exciting moments. While i didn't like it as much as another new release this weekend I do recommend this and really hope this is a new start for the Transformers series.
