I.M.C.F Review
Being the fifth film of the installment, the audience are quite sure of what to expect from these films. Especially from third part... There has been as much importance to Humans, as the Giant Robotic Transformers, in saving the world. This film is no exception too. It's another one of those films where Autobots and Humans fight together to save the World!
So, as a neutral fan who knows what to expect from these films will be happy enough to find some plot, good action, humor, slight romance, emotions and the CGI effects! But as a series fan who had been closely following this series might still be disappointed with nothing being new, apart from the fact that Unicron is coming! So, all the fans could do is to wait for the next film. But Michael Bay might not direct that film. So that film could go either way. Anyway, let's hope for the best!
Coming to this movie in specific... It has got a great link to the past and to various parts of the World. It involves WW1, WW2, King Arthur's Battle, Stone Henge and various other Countries like US, UK and more. The plot around all these scenarios and how Transformers were a part of our past had been shown very well. The action sequences are well made too. CGI effects, especially the IMAX 3D effects are too good and very real.
5 Human characters played a major role and each one of them had been exceptional. Some glamor had been added and has worked out in a good way! When it comes to Optimus and his battles... they have been the same as always. Not so special... apart from one or two scenes. Bumblebee played a major role and did well with his adventure.
I.M.C.F Rating : 82/100
Direction : 9/10 : Takes you to a different World, altogether!
Production Values : 8/10 : Some serious money has been spent, but not all of it can be seen on screen!
Story/Plot : 7/10 : Apart from an insight on Transformer's past and Cybertron's destruction... Not a special plot!
Cast Performances : 7/10 : 5 major Human characters and Bumblebee had been exceptional. Optimus and Megatron were ok. Others were fine.
Music : 7/10 : Not a special music, but takes you with the flow of the film.
Cinematography : 9/10 : The stunts and the action sequences were shot well.
CGI : 9/10 : You will be on our Planet, but you will doubt if it is ours! Such great were the CGI Effects!
Screenplay/Editing : 9/10 : Seems to be long, but a lot of plot had been covered. Great screenplay!
Dialogues : 8/10 : Well written. Hilarious at times too!
Awe Moment(s) : 9/10 : Optimus vs Bumblebee; Scenes with Submarine; Deal with Megatron; Emotions among Humans; Optimus's return and his battle with Megatron along with Dragon!
