Rough Groove

Transformers - Michael Bay, 2007

Opening in theatres today, we trooped for the first playtime and it was no surprise that majority of the moviegoers lining the ticketbox were males in their 20’s and early 30’s, some obviously skipped work (as a friend told me) just to catch it on its first day.

A visual and a highly testosterone treat that just made my jaws drop, awestruck with the latest digital cinematic effects and wizardry in this much awaited movie that is more on reliving bygone years when the original cartoon series played out in the boob tube. Now updated for the current generation, the Autobots and Decepticons are way just too cool, highly sophisticated in their recent incarnate forms. Coupled with the latest Dolby cinema sound system at Waltermart Makati, the cinema experience was highly heightened as you are enveloped with soundwaves and the reverberations inside the moviehouse made you feel that you’re part of the scene. Wow!
