The first three-quarters of the film was great. The last fourth, though, ended up completely flat. I couldn't tell which robots were the good guys, the bad guys, who's getting hurt, who's getting chopped into pieces, who's winning... The peak of the action scenes didn't work for me. I did enjoy the very human aspects of the film--which were concentrated in the first part of the movie. Shia LaBeouf came a long way from his character in the Disney show "Even Stevens." I think him and Justin Long are currently one of our brightest rising stars in Hollywood. After "Disturbia" and "Transformers," I'll definitely be on the lookout on what LaBeouf comes up with next.
