Depending on your point of view, ‘Transformers’ is either Hollywood high-concept entertainment at its finest, or at its most insipid. To be sure, it's everything you'd expect from a movie based on a toy line and directed by Michael Bay – loud, one-dimensional and filled with enough robot destruction for ten other movies.
This HD DVD is an impressive effort from Paramount. The transfer is very strong, and despite a lack of high-res audio, the Dolby Digital track still manages to be excellent. This two disc set is filled with extras that are both substantive and cutting-edge, boasting quality content and some genuine advancements in web-enabled technology. While there are some chinks in the armor here and there, this is certainly a top tier HD DVD release that's a must-own for fans of the film, and an easy recommend for anyone desiring some over-the-top demo material.
Paramount has hidden a total of five easter eggs on ‘Transformers,’ spread across both discs in the set. 1 egg on disc one and the remaining eggs are all on disc two. I'll leave it to you to find them. Have fun.....
