About this listen

Leading up to the new film "Rise of the Beasts", it's time for me to revisit and re-review the first 4 Michael Bay Transformers movies, beginning with the 2007 film that was released 16 years ago and it's still for me the best Transformers film.

#Transformers2007


Sypnosis The fate of humanity is at stake when two races of robots, the good Autobots and the villainous Decepticons, bring their war to Earth. The robots have the ability to change into different mechanical objects as they seek the key to ultimate power. Only a human youth, Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) can save the world from total destruction.
