High-school student Sam Witwicky buys his first car, who is actually the Autobot Bumblebee. Bumblebee defends Sam and his girlfriend Mikaela Banes from the Decepticon Barricade, before the other Autobots arrive on Earth. They are searching for the Allspark, and the war on Earth heats up as the Decepticons attack a United States military base in Qatar. Sam and Mikaela are taken by the top-secret agency Sector 7 to help stop the Decepticons, but when they learn the agency also intends to destroy the Autobots, they formulate their own plan to save the world.
Plenty of great action scenes and humor for, in my opinion, the summer's best and biggest blockbuster (that's saying something with SPIDER-MAN 3 and PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END having been released this summer). This film introduced me to Shia LaBeouf who is a promising young actor with a great career ahead of him IMO. Two of my favorite characters in this were Bernie Mac and Anthony Anderson. Whether you rent or buy it, see this film on Tuesday! The Bay is back ladies and gentleman!
