Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
During the 1980s, one cartoon series ruled the airwaves... The Transformers. This paragon of consumerism was created with a dual purpose--to entertain and to galvanize children to buy the toys. Somewhere along the line, the show became a cult favorite, so in 1986 they fashioned an epic tale of good versus evil specifically for the big screen. The result looked vaguely like an animated remake of Star Wars. Who are the Transformers? The good guys are the Autobots: Optimus Prime, SoundWave, Jazz, Ultra Magnus, and many more. Their mortal enemies are the evil Decepticons, led by Megatron and StarScream. The Autobots must save their home planet from an evil entity known as Unicron (voiced by Orson Welles). At the same time, they must defend themselves from an all-out attack from the Decepticons. Along the way, lives are lost, battles are fought, and a new Autobot leader is born as another dies. The story and action never stop in a thrilling ride that often makes you forget that you're watching an '80s cartoon with inferior graphics. The violence will also come as a mild shock to those who haven't seen this film for a while--definitely a movie for the 8 and over audience. For those who grew up on this series, this is a movie that must be watched. Unlike cartoon serials before and after, The Transformers relied on solid stories and interesting characters, a manifesto the film itself upholds with gusto and grace while also being morally responsible. Don't underestimate this movie; there is definitely more to it than meets the eye. --Jeremy Storey

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Transform
This movie is one hour and twenty-four minutes long and was released on August 8, 1986. This movie is set between season two and three. We witness the deaths of Optimus Prime and Megatron and witness the births of Rodimus Prime and Galvatron. Overall the details of this movie, with a darker theme to it and a heavy metal music sound, make this a very excellent movie to watch. Also we are intruduced to some new characters like Kup, Blurr and Wheelie. I woudl recommend this to anyone.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My First Piece of Transformers Merchandise
2 years ago I was walking around Wal-Mart looking at DVDs. I see a copy for 15 bucks and had to get it. This is a great movie. The only part that makes me shudder is the Death of Optimus Prime. But he does come back in season 3. My favorite part is when Galvatron and Hot Rod fight. But the most powerful moment is when Rodimus Prime opens the Matrix. I always watch disc 2 beacause of Full-Screen and it shows old G1 toy commercials. It shows the Constructicons, Insecticons, Powermaster Optimus Prime, ... Read More
