If anyone had the chance to watch Britney Spears in the MTV awards show last night, you will all understand why her name will continue to be in the tabloids. I had a brief moment of hope for Brit when I heard her new single, I found myself tapping my foot and bobbing my head to the beat. How dare she make me enjoy her catchy club music! I got over it.
Sadly Brit's song must of been a studio only track based on her performance she gave last night. To say she looked like a lost puppy on the highway would be an under statement. The song if you haven't heard it yet is called Gimme More, it's fast and up beat, Brit was anything but that. She moved so slow it was actually painful watch, I say move because what she was doing was far from dancing. Her backup dancers were ripping it up while she shuffled stepped around the stage. The highlight of her routine was when one of the backup dancers got to feel her up, I'm sure he felt special.
Who ever was in charge of Brit's wardrobe should be fired on the spot. I suspect they were going for sexy but they missed the mark by I'd say about a good 3.5 to 4.5 years. The outfit simply just didn't go with her body type and it didn't get the response from my wang I'm sure it was suppose to. In fact my wang wants to write an angry letter to management about the incident. Like come on a sequined bra and panties on a chick who's curves have long faded, it was just wrong!
Ashley Simpson got in so much flack for lip syncing but this seems to be the least of the comments flying around the internet. It was a worse lip sync job since Rihanna was on "So you think you can dance". Brit had to be on something cause she was moving in slow motion, they didn't zoom in on her for a reason and she would cover her mouth and I'm sure it wasn't just cause her breath was a little ripe.
Brit my plea goes out to you to clean up your life girl, you had such promise and you can do so much better. You still have a chance to turn your life around, look at Robert Downey Jr. he's freakin Iron Man now so if he can do it so can you. Stop pushing your support away, listen to your mother and take care of those kids and the masses will soon forget as they always do.
This is to any critic who may have bashed Michael Bay for Transformers... GET A NEW JOB cause you suck.
Now on to the review!
I am not going to provide any spoilers to this movie as I believe it needs to be enjoyed by the audience member.
We got to the theater today for the 8:30 pm PST showing of TRANSFORMERS the Movie an hour early, and half the theater was full already. The anticipation for this event was insane, everyone was just so damn eager to see this movie. This was a movie based on the toys and cartoons which shaped many of our young lives and there was a lot riding on it. If it was great it was going to be FACKING AMAZING, but if it wasn't great it was going to suck and suck hard.
After waiting for an hour the lights dimmed, there was a hush over the crowd, then the longest damn commercial package anyone had ever seen started playing. It was just teasing us, making us wait, it wasn't going to just give up the goods until we were in a relationship.... so we lied to it and it finally gave up the goods and oh it was soooo sweet.
Right from the get go I knew this movie as going to be GREAT! It started off with the attack on the army base in the middle of the desert, the one from the preview with where the helicopter lands and then lays waste. From that point on I was hooked and begging for more.
This movie delivered on so many fronts, the action was amazing, the CG was out of this world, a story that will forever be part of my life and it had great moments of comedic genius. To top it off there were some amazingly beautiful women in this movie, Megan Fox, and here is MeganFox in a few other maxim shots, I would sell my best friend on the black market if you asked me to and Rachel Taylor you made geeks everyone go to fantasy land thinking you just might be in their class one day.
For anyone who thought the robots themselves may be poorly done, this is not the case. The crew at ILM did not only met my very high expectations but far exceeded them. The movement was fluid, the transforming reminded me of what being a kid was like again, and to top it off they were able to emote like any other actor on the screen.
Mr. Bay, if you somehow ever stumble upon this blog please know your movie changed my life. I will for the rest of time be using this movie as my new meter stick. I've seen most of the other "SUMMER BLOCKBUSTERS" and sir yours made them drop to their knees and ask who's turn it is next ... if you catch my drift ;). Spider Man 3 was OK, it wasn't great but it was far from bad. Pirates 3 ... as my friend put it, he wouldn't use his own bandwidth to pirate this movie. Shrek 3, sure you were cute and animated but it could always be better. Fantastic Four, once again OK but not great. At no point in any of those movies did the entire audience stand and show their appreciation for being completely entertained. Mr. Bay your movie did something no other movie I've every seen do, and that was make the entire audience stand up, clap, cheer and roar to show just how great the performance was. I wish the actors could've heard it. There were two showings of the movie in our town and I had friends in the other and he said the same thing happened in there also.
This movie grabbed my attention, no scratch that it demanded my attention and I fully gave it for the entire length of the movie. Transformers destroyed my out of 10 scale, the only way I can rate this movie is by saying I will pay money to go see it again at the theaters. I've only ever done that once before and it was for Armageddon, and in case you didn't know that was also a Michael Bay movie.
If you haven't seen this movie, go see it. If you are a critic who ragged on this movie, please do not hesitate to have your friend or one of your co-workers come kick you in the junk so you remember what a complete and utter mistake feels like.
