I have not seen it, but for those who have: is it really as bad as the critics are saying?

The cartoon was a childhood favourite of mine, and I think it's disappointing shameful hurtful what the studios, directors, and writers are doing to my childhood memories, if what the critics say is true.

Yeah I can just feel that the movie will be BAD. Just quit ruining everything I like just cause you hope adults 25-30 will go see it cause we liked it as a kid. But who knows maybe I'll watch some of it on the internet. My way of sticking it to the man.

I really want to go see it, but after those reveiws... not so sure now.

I don't trust reviews, some people said Transformers 2 was bad. To bad, so sad.

It wasn't horrific...



But it also wasn't great...




Personally...it's a solid 3/5 for me...meh



It's a good way to blow an afternoon with some friends, especially if you go out afterwards for fries/fish 'n chips/ramen/or whatever is your cultural cheap food and have a laugh about it...



Or, you could wait for it to come out on dvd/blue ray and have a considerably less expensive laugh at home...

I watched it, it was enjoyable. Worth a watch.
