Much better than 2 and 3!
The toxic avenger is back.This time the Toxic Avenger is sent to Amortville,while his evil double Noxie is in Tromaville.This time there is plenty of gore,I would say more than the previous three combined.There's also gobs of topless women.Troma at it's finest.If you liked the original Toxic Avenger check this out.

Citizen Toxie saves the day
I am the biggest Toxic Avenger fan. I can't get enough of Troma films. I have not yet seen the DVD edition of this movie. I have seen a promo copy on VHS that was sent to me by Troma last summer. I would have to say that Citizen Toxie is just as good as the first Toxic Avenger. I will admit that Toxic Avenger both 2 and 3 were somewhat disappointing, but Citizen Toxie is good all of the way through. Troma did not let me down with this one.If you like the Toxic Avenger and if you have an appreciation for Troma films- you will love this release.

4 stars for the extras, 0 plus for the film
I have been a fan of the Toxic Avenger since its release in l985. The two sequels were indeed lame, but part 4 really did it for me. I can honestly say I am no longer a Troma fan. Troma has sunken to a new low; if you find long scenes of retarded teenagers being made fun of and sickening sex scenes involving cheese, feet, and men spitting out sperm from other men, then this film is for you. The Toxie mask even looks the worst it ever did. I can't believe how bad this flick is...even the FX are horrible compared to the original. Troma needs to either hire a new director (Kaufman made his million, so I doubt he's too concerned with what he puts out anymore after seeing this), or get some new writers. I doubt even pre teens would enjoy this lame excuse for an exploitation film. At least the extras were interesting...but wasted on such a piece of garbage. I never thought I'd say this about my favorite hero from NJ.

Greatest Film in the world
This is the greatest film ever, I enjoyed reading Robert Hedges review of it, how could watching a car run over a grannies head causing the granny to squirt diarrhea all over the road not make you laugh, yes it is mindless gore but thats the whole point, its not going to encourage any reall life violence because its so over the top, also the film has its heart in the right place, the toxic avenger only kills people in a manner of comical ways when someone does something wrong. Political correctness had started to suffocatte us before comedies such as the simpsons and south park started to target absolutely everybody without exeption, this film does the same.

Funny but avoid R-rating
I bought an R-rated copy and didnt think there was going be a difference. Well, the gore is cut out of this picture. There is little here and there, but the unrated version is so much better. Its an alight movie without the gore, one of the funniest pictures ive seen in a long time.

easily offended need not apply
I'm curious about some of the comments of one of the other eviewers, who professes to be a long-time Troma fan and also claims to be offended by this film. Hey, man, if you are even close to easily offended, you need to steer as clear of this film as as humanly possible. This is nothing new for Troma movies. My god, they distributed a movie called "Buttcrack," which is about a killer buttcrack!To deal with the actual movie, though: it's very funny. Sick, yes. Disgusting, yes. But funny. And thought-provoking, in a strange sort of way. When a supporting character visits an abortion clinic and is assaulted by both vicious pro-lifers and sadistic pro-choicers, you are left with no choice whatsoever but to actually think for a second about where you stand on this issue. Such things happen at several points in the film, which is sort of surprising. You don't expect keen social commentary from a director who has fashioned a career out of head-crushing, arm-ripping, and gratuitously gratuitous nudity. My point is, this is a movie that is smarter than it seems to be, which to me is the best sort of art.The DVD is especially worth purchasing for the basketload of extras, which include a lenghty documentary on the arduous making of the film. There are three commentary tracks (one with director Lloyd Kaufman, one with various of the actors, and one with the editors), each of which is excellent and informative.

Destined for B-movie greatness
You've got to love Troma. No other studio has so elevated trash to an art form (not intentionally, at least). Taking cues from the likes of Roger Corman and John Waters, director Lloyd Kaufman truly knows how to make great bad movies. Making his films truly as exploitative, offensive and trashy as possible, Kaufman does a better job at making bad movies than most directors do at making good ones.With Citizen Toxie, Lloyd Kaufman has nearly topped what I previously thought to be the epitome of trashy B-movies, Terror Firmer. Terror Firmer probably still stands as the ultimate Troma movie, but Citizen Toxie is not far behind. Among of the objects of spoofery this time around is Orson Welles' masterpiece Citizen Kane. Does that mean that Kaufman is trying to make the Citizen Kane of B-movies with Citizen Toxie? Possibly, and he just may have done it. I've seen a lot of cheesy, awful exploitation flicks, but few of them were as enjoyable or as hilarious as Citizen Toxie. There's everything that makes B-movies great here: over-the-top gore, gratuitous sex and nudity, crude and vulgar humor, bad acting and cameos by bottom-drawer celebrities (Lemmy Kilmister, Corey Feldman, Ron Jeremy, Julie Strain, Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf). Dare I say that Citizen Toxie may even be better than the original. Even if you haven't seen the classic 1985 movie, it will still be enjoyable. The original movie is also summarized at the beginning to bring you up to speed.As usual, Troma has put together an excellent DVD package. It has deleted scenes, outtakes, interviews, a feature-length documentary and all kinds of fun stuff. Well worth the low price for hours of disgusting entertainment. Citizen Toxie is highly recommended for fans of the genre and anyone who can sit through a Troma movie and enjoy themselves.

Toxie is Better Than Ever!
I Don't even know where to begin about Troma's biggest, baddest, and most feature packed double disc of Citizen Toxie. When Tromaville's School For the Very Special Is Terrorized By the Diaper Mafia Toxie Saves the day Resulting in an Inter-dimensional Switch of extreme proportions! Good Toxie is sent To Amortvile the opposite of Tromaville and Noxie (Evil Toxie) is sent to wreak havok on Tromaville and chaos ensues! What happens next? You have to rush out and grab what could be the best toxie of all to find out. No lie, this 2-disc will keep you occupied for weeks figuring out and going through all the features and easter eggs plus the added documentary Apocalypse Soon is great too. This Is A Troma Fans Dream So wake up and go grab Lloys greatest now!

Tromeo and Wholiet?
Forget the original Toxie, Class of Nuke em High, Tromeo and Juliet, and even Terror Firmer: Citizen Toxie is the definitive Troma movie! The characters are excellent, the script is genious, the directing is inspired, and the acting is just campy enough. There is no plot to get in the way of the over the top gore, tomatoes, and "Special" people. Let's get to the characters, shall we? Of course there's Toxie. No intro needed. Noxie is the Noxious Avenger, Toxie's doppleganger from Amortville. Lard-butt is toxie's "morbidly obese sidekick." Sarah is the ever name changing blind wife of toxie. OH, in Amortville she's deaf not blind. Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD quite possibly steals the show as a drunk loser of a vigilante. Well, almost steals the show. Tito steals the show, a special crack head who is undergoing a major case of teen angst. As Tito says in the film when discovered getting high, "Being a teenager sucks. Being a retarder teenager sucks more. Drugs make it suck less" Toxie: "wow, you're quite articullate for a special druggie." Tito: "what's atriclate?" LOL!!! This is what the script is like the whole time, but better and even more obscene. The DVD extras are incredible, 3 comentaries, a feature length making of docu called "Apocalypse Soon,"(don't miss the segment with the stunts coordinator complaining about his 3 FEET JUMP.) deleted scenes to the documentary, deleted scenes, bonus footage, trailers, like, 4 premiers, not-so-hidden hidden easter eggs, and more. Buy this DVD, turn off your brain, like, totally, and have some friends over: it'll be fun.

Troma rules!!!
The original Toxic Avenger is the most famous Troma movie ever made and finally there is a worthy sequel. When I first heard of Citizen Toxie and how great it was, I had high hopes as Tromeo & Juliet and Terror Firmer were so cool. I wasn't disappointed, Citizen Toxie is hilarious from start to finish with everything that makes Troma great.There's tonnes of nekkid girls (a few guys as well), action, cheesy Troma gore and some of the most twisted humour ever! I mean who else but Troma has the guts to make jokes about, hate crimes, penil implants, abortions and the metally challenged? I think that plenty of people would feel it's their duty to critisize such un PC humour, but really the true racism satired in this film are shown as events happening in the 'evil' dimention thus rightfully protrayed as dispicable yet how many Hollywood film makers even acknowledge that these exact evils happen in the real world? Most people would agree that making fun of the handicapped is not cool, but hey the mentally challenged characters Tito and Sweetie develop true personalities in Citizen Toxie and really aren't the tear jerking Hollywood flicks like 'I am Sam' that use handicapped people to make their films sappy and sentimantal exploiting them just as much as films that laugh at them?Citizen Toxie has the kind of no holds barred creativity only a low budget independant film can capture. If you love Troma you will already have this 2 disc set, if you don't like Troma steer clear of this film as it embodies everything Troma represents.As usual there are a tonne of extras on the disc. Troma certainly know how to make great DVD sets, how many big studio DVD's do you get which think that 'interactive menus' and 'chapter selection' are special features? Apocalypse Soon the making of documentry is awesome. Any big budget film 'making of' consists of a glossy set of interviews in which one dimentional actors like Julia Roberts go into the dynamics of their character acting and feature a director explaining his artistic vision for the remake of a foriegn film, but Apocalypse Soon features totally raw on set footage of the film crew. All the problems like lacklusture stunts, late actors, script revisions ect are all shown in on the spot unedited footage. LLoyd isn't painted as a character who is beloved by all crew and actors but shown reacting honestly to the day to day struggles on set.This double DVD is amazing, very cool film, great extras, some interesting easter eggs and is worth every penny.

The Toxic Avenger 4
When he is unable to diffuse a bomb from destroying Tromaville's school for the gifted, Toxie is sent spiraling into a bizarro universe, where his evil doppelganger rules the crime-ridden town of Amortville. Meanwhile, The Noxious Offender has taken his place back in Tromaville, where he begins to spread his vile hate and corruption. How will Toxie ever get home to stop this terrible new threat? After two lackluster sequels, Lloyd Kaufman returns with what he claims to be the one true sequel to the 80's cult-classic THE TOXIC AVENGER, and depending on your personal taste, this will be either the best or the worst film you have ever seen in your entire life. We, for one, side with the latter. THE TOXIC AVENGER PART IV: CITIZEN TOXIE is one of the greatest crimes ever committed against humanity. It is s*** smeared on 108-minutes of celluloid waste. Kaufman needs to return the script to the group of immature high school freshman that wrote it and demand his $15 back. To quote BILLY MADISON: "What you've just [made] is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever [seen]. At no point in your rambling, incoherent [film] were you even close to anything that could be considered [art]. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having [watched] it." With the cunning humor far removed, the only thing that links THE TOXIC AVENGER PART IV to the original (besides a few measly cameos) is the absurd amount of splatter. If you enjoy movies that are drenched in rancid feces, semen, and stupidity, look no further! THE TOXIC AVENGER PART IV will meet all of your delicate sensibilities, and more!-Carl ManesI Like Horror Movies

WOW! This movie has it all! And unlike my last review for the totally RETARDED movie Unspeakable, this is by far Troma's best film and DVD release EVER!!!! There are also so many extra's on this DVD I dare you to try and go through them all in one sitting. IMPOSSIBLE! No matter what the price, buy this DVD! The film is side-splittingly funny. The extras are so extensive it'll make you vomit. So what are you waiting for? BUY THE DAMN MOVIE!!! HA HA!!!

"I got my head up my ass"
This is the reason why I love the aroma of Troma. This movie never stops. It is pure nasty sillyness. I recommend this to anyone, not just people who can handle it. ANYONE!!This movie is a bizarre one. With appearances from Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf, Ron Jeremy, Lemmy Kilmeister and the guy's who play the original Toxic Avenger. I love this film, if anyone coms across it, I say watch it, just not with your parents.

good lord - i cant see how it gets any better than this!
its entirely beyond me how with every film lloyd kaufmann directs, it outdoes the last. sheer genius.this is one of THE greatest flicks ive ever seen in my entire life. with hours upon hours of dvd extras, this two-disc set is the greatest dvd since terror firmer. i cant even begin to describe how amazing this movie is. indeed it is the true sequel (although toxic avenger II is a guilty pleasure of mine).i think the most amazing thing about this movie is it was made with 1 half of 1 percent of the amount of money a common hollywood film costs. utter and sheer genius.

Beyond reproach, even for Troma
I love the Toxic avenger. I found the original to be a classic example of how to make a fun, clever and extremely gory laugh fest on a shoestring budget. I actually own the film on dvd. And, yes, I am aware that Troma is not the place to go if you're looking for class or fine art. This is a company that deliberately panders to the basest impulses of the filmgoing experience- sort of the home video version of "grindhouse cinema". But this time they've gone too far. Billed as the "real" sequel to the original film, "Citizen Toxie" manages to be boring, disgusting, loathsome, cheap ( I'm not kidding..even by Troma's low standards the effects are just awful in this film...and Toxie's makeup is the worst in the series..so bad that the design of this character from the original film looks oscar-worthy by comparison) and unredeemingly brazen as it revels in the most disgusting images put to film since "Pink Flamingoes". The "plot" involves Toxie being transported to an alternate dimension where everything is evil, while at the same time an evil Toxie from said dimension pops up in our world to terrorize Tromaville. I am a guy who can usually laugh off any image a movie has to throw at me, but this flick had moments that honestly made me sick. Do yourself a favor and avoid this one like the plague that it is. You'd be better of just watching the original again. Way to corrupt your one legitmately interesting franchise, Troma. If this is your idea of stellar entertainment, your day has definitely passed.

Come back, Troma! Come back!
So here it is...the long-awaited Citizen Toxie.You know, I'm getting tired of doing Troma all these favors. I buy all their movies, I watch them, I talk about them to my friends, I wear the T-shirts. But all I'm really doing is kidding myself, and biding my time until the real Troma stands up again. Because as perversely entertaining as Citizen Toxie is, it's not the real Troma. The Troma I know and love has heart, and I'm sorry to say Lloyd seems to have reached into the bowels of Toxie himself and plucked his poor, black little heart out.Maybe Kaufman is afraid of being "good." His defensive-bordering-on-paranoid rants against mainstream entertainment like Spielberg certainly suggest that he's intentionally shunning competence. Look no further than his last two flicks - they're both self-referential, self-conscious post-modern satires. Fine, but ANYONE can do that! There's no heart, and that's a huge letdown, following the masterful "Tromeo & Juliet," which was pure heart (and it was just as silly and campy as all the others, and it had a better lesbian scene too).But maybe that movie was a fluke. Maybe all Troma wants to do is stink up the joint in a good way, like a big plate of onion rings on a caviar-and-lobster buffet table. In which case Citizen Toxie fits in nicely. It's fun, funny, entertaining, a good time. So are the extras, even if the documentary is a little dull. But look at the actors in Citizen Toxie! They're GOOD! They know what they're doing! Give them a chance, man. Mix up the letters of "Troma" and switch that T for an E and you get "Amore"...let's get the Amore back in Troma, shall we?So on the whole, Citizen Toxie has a good beat and you can dance to it. 4 stars. Peace out.

At last...Toxie Part 4 - a real classic
I must make a confession. I have always been aware of Troma but never actually sat down in front of one till my friend put on this dvd....and I was blown away!!! As a result I have revisited most of tromas back catalogue and become quite a fanatic of The Toxic Avenger (who is actually from my home town! Who would have guessed?) I urge anyone to give this movie a try if you're looking for something a little different to your average mainstream fare. Also, the extras are just amazing and will take a good few days to trawl through them all. You will NOT regret buying this DVD....

Toxie still lives on in the hearts of men!!!
I had waited a few years for this baby to come out I was going to buy the screener but i just couldn't bring myself to paying too much for it since Troma's films are cheap and a good imitaion of satire at it's best. But as soon as I had a chance to get the DVD i grabbed it,and i must say it is the best out of all the toxies Lloyd Kaufman still knows what the underground wants in cinema and what the capitalist industries hate most and thats DIY thanks lloyd for another fan favorite (also get the Tox Box) its the only way to see Toxic Crusaders (digitalized) and The Toxic Avenger Part 2 director's cut in it's entirity.Toxie rulezzz!!!!!

A true sequel to the first Toxic Avenger
The gags, effects, humor, and sleazy portrayal of characters makes this movie a must. TA4 is the best Troma film released, well--since the first Toxic Avenger movie! I loved every minute of it.

It's Bad When Ron Jeremy Provides The Taste And Decorum
This film was sent to me by a friend who also appreciates movies so bad they're good. At the end of the day though, this movie is so bad it's, well, bad. I love grade-Z cinema as much as the next person, although I am not amazingly fond of pointless gore (that's problem number one in this case), but the real problem here is that Lloyd Kaufman has taken what had the potential to be an amusing premise at the beginning of the series and gone out of his way to attempt to offend everyone. He does so, but mostly because of his lame attempts at satire. Question: is it absolutely hilarious to mock and parody brilliant theoretical physicist Steven Hawking? Apparently Kaufman thinks so, although I don't know anybody else who does. Likewise the premise of the "Diaper Mafia" taking over the "Tromaville School for the Very Special" leaves something to be desired in the taste department. I will skip the details of the extreme requisite flatulence, blind girlfriend forced lesbianism (with translator), and inter-uterine evil-twin mop fight, and just suffice it to say that at no time did this film rise from the gutter to attempt humor: in the gutter is where it should stay.I love bad movies, I love parodies, and I love satire, but this film fails on more levels than most other films even attempt. Like I said in the title, when Ron Jeremy provides the taste, refinement, and decorum in a movie, you know there is a flaw in the film.In attempting to be fair to the film I will say that people who actually do like the movie (for whatever reason) will love this packaging. There are multiple audio commentaries, a 95 minute long (it seems like forever) "making of" feature, outtakes, behind the scenes stuff, etc. The whole thing takes two DVDs, and in this case I can definitely say that the extras are more enjoyable viewing than the feature.The premise of Toxie having an evil twin ("The Noxious Offender", or "Noxie") is actually a good one. This could have been a good B-movie satire; it's a shame that it became a cheap exploitation piece, and an un-funny one at that.

BEYOND OFFENSIVE!
If you love, care, like, or even have the smallest amount of respect for yourself or another person don't expose them to this garbage! I did not expect a movie with taste, and I enjoy B-movies, tacky gross outs, and off color humor. BUT THIS MOVIE GOES WAY OVERBOARD! The filmakers trying so hard to be shocking they forget to give this flick anything that a decent human being could find enjoyable.

These drugs are gonna blow my a$$ off!
Once again we are back for another Toxic Avenger review. After two rather lackluster sequels (which I, surprisingly, enjoyed), Lloyd Kaufman and crew return with the hilarious, gory, and very violent Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger Part IV.What seperates Citizen Toxie from the other sequels is the care that was taken with this sequel. Sure, Toxie 2 and 3 were labors of love, as all Troma movies are, but they were missing some key ingredient that made the original Toxic Avenger so fun and enjoyable- a truly cohesive story... well, as cohesive a story as a Troma film can have. For instance, the thing about Toxie 3 that made no sense was his willingness to get involved with the Apocalypse, Inc company after all the evil they did in Toxie 2. Plus, those films were less about Toxie doing what he does best- fighting crime- and more about stunts and gags that truly felt way too long and way too often, whereas the fight scenes in Toxie 2 felt more like an obligation instead of something that truly belonged. It was almost like, with these sequels, Kaufman said, 'okay, let's try to develop the character of Toxie even more!' when, truly, there isn't too much more you can expand on about Toxie. He's a hideously deformed creature of superhuman size and strength- what more can you do with that?And that's what's great about this film, is they don't really try to do much more in terms of changing Toxie's character and persona and instead simply show Toxie fans what we want to see- bad guys getting violently killed, and the frailty of the citizens of Tromaville when it comes to loyalty to Toxie.The film opens with the Diaper Mafia invading the Tromaville School for the Very Special. What follows is a mix and mash of 'special' people being killed, and Toxie showing up and avenging their deaths. Enter Tito, The Retarded Rebel, one of the funniest characters in any Toxie film, if not the funniest.After a huge explosion destroys the school, Toxie is transported to an alternate dimension, called Amortville, while his evil doppleganger, Noxie, or The Noxious Offender, ends up back in Tromaville. Noxie wreaks havoc in Tromaville while Toxie tries to figure out a way to get home, all the while battling Evil Kabuikman, Evil Mad Cowboy, and a host of other characters.One of the best ideas Troma could have had with this film was to include many more colorful characters outside of Toxie and Sara (who finally goes back to her real name, after being called Claire in Toxie 2 and 3.) We have Sergeant Kabukiman, NYPD, who is hilarious as a drunk superhero who pretty much has no powers. As mentioned before, Tito, the Retarded Rebel, is absolutely hilarious and had me laughing in every scene he was in. Then we have Sweetie Honey, who some will either love or hate, but I can't imagine anybody hating her- she's another hilarious addition to the cast. On top of the other superheros, including Mad Cowboy, Vibrator, Dolphinman, and Mastur- er, well, if you're reading this, you can probably guess what comes next.The effects in this film, too, are excellent, aside from one headcrushing scene, in which using a watermelon really didn't work for Troma here. But we have disembowelments, a cross through the throat, gunshot wounds, and a magnificent head crushing scene involving a Bible and a State book. Troma really outdid themselves with some of the effects here- just wait till the awesome hospital slaughter scene. This film will definately not disappoint gore hounds.The comedy is certainly in every reel of this film. There's jokes ranging from retard jokes to certain, um, 'favors' performed by the lovable old Chester, who can be a little bit TOO lovable. Tito has some of the best lines in the film, including, 'These drugs are gonna blow my a$$ off.' I laughed all the way through this film- even most straight up comedy movies fail to do that nowadays, and combining the blood and guts made this just eye candy for me.Certainly, however, this film is not for everyone. It takes a special person to appreciate a Troma film, and I am more than proud to say that I love these movies, no matter how weird people might look at me for it. However, I have only seen the unrated cut, so I couldn't tell you what is so different between the rated and unrated cuts, but I can imagine, after seeing the rated Toxie 2, that it probably butchers the film.This is a definite buy if you enjoy these kinds of movies. It has everything a Troma fan could want.And yes, if you are worried, there is nudity. Plenty of it.Plus, the making of the film, Apocalypse Soon, is almost 3 hours long and is very entertaining to watch, making this package a completely loaded DVD worth your time and money.

The TRUE sequel - the best film!
Lloyd Kaufman is a genius making masterpieces on a budget that would barely be enough to pay for one day's catering on an average Hollywood producton and he does it for thirty years now. In a world where low budget independent filmmaking means manymultimillion dollar productions by subdivisions of Warner and Disney, Lloyd Kaufman survived for three decades (and counting) with his truly independent filmcompany Troma and in doing so directed, produced and/or wrote dozens of brilliant films. (For which he received a lifetime achievement award at this year's edition of the prestigious Amsterdam Fantastic Film Festival.)CITIZEN TOXIE: THE TOXIC AVENGER IV is his latest and even better than even those brilliant masterpieces as TROMEO AND JULIET and TERROR FIRMER. I am not going to give away anything of the story, too much is happening in any case to even begin to tell you about in a few lines, but it is SO wonderful you just have to see it for yourself. Dave Mattey is ondoubtly the best Toxie of all four films, Heidi Sjursen his best (in this case) Sarah, and even though the budget of the film is not much more than that of the first one, made almost twenty years ago the production value of this one is unbelievable! This exact same film made by one of the Official Indepentents (Miramax, how independent can one be?) would have cost at least ten times this amount. And then - they would never have the guts and the intelligence to come up with this totally awesome film in which more aspects of our messed-up world are tackled that they could cram in their entire catalogue.Apart from a film you can't afford to miss, this 2-disc-DVD-set (and look at the rediculously low price!) provides you with SO much more. There are no less than three full-length audio-commentaries. One by director Lloyd Kaufman, and his commentaries are always at least as entertaining and insightful as the feature itself. This particular one even includes a soundsample of Troma co-founder Michael Herz!! The second one is a wonderfully compiled track with contributions by the most important stars of the film, including Troma Action Hero Joe Fleishaker, star of many of Kaufman's past movies.Another track is by the editors of the film and provides even more info on how such a brilliant film could be made under conditions that are difficult to say the least. At any rate - much more is there, such as loads of deleted scenes (with or without commentary), talks with the cast and crew, footage of CITIZEN TOXIE-premieres around the world, tons of hidden easter-eggs and much, much more. Apart from all this there even is a complete second feature: the 135 minute behind-the-scenes documentary APOCALYSPE SOON, which also comes complete with it's own deleted scenes! This is NOT the usual "he is wonderful, he is great, he is the best" docu - as the audiocommentaries do it provides a no holds barred look inside the hard-working-low-paying world of independent cinema. These people are HONEST, and where do you get that on your DVD-extra's??There is no doubt this is the very best DVD-presentation of a movie ever - over six hours of Tromatic entertainment, and I'm not even counting the multiple viewings of the film itself with the various audio-tracks! Count those and you need a week to take in all information this instant interactive encyclopeadia provides.If you haven't seen the other installements of THE TOXIC AVENGER, not to worry as everything you need to know is worked into the movie, without it being boring for those who are familiar.Don't rent this one, don't watch your friend's copy but support independent cinema and buy our own copy. You never received so much value for your bucks!! (Except maybe when you bought Lloyd Kaufman's latest book MAKE YOUR OWN DAMN MOVIE).

The best sequel in the series!
A few years after the events of the original, a gang of criminals named the Diaper Mafia takes hostage of a school for the special in the town of Tromaville. New Jersey's favorite hideously deformed creature of superhuman size and strength known as The Toxic Avenger and his sidekick named Lardass dukes it out with the gang but during an explosion something unexpected happened, it sends Toxie in another dimension at an alternate Tromaville called Amortville where everything is bad while an evil version of Toxie called The Noxic Offender is in Tromaville causing all sorts of trouble. But luckily Toxie's best friend Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD with a group of unusual misft superheroes must try to stop Noxie, meanwhile in Amortville Toxie with a retarded girl and a retarded teen rebel must find some way to get back to Tromaville or else the town will be doomed and will Toxie's wife Sarah give birth to either a good or bad child?Featuring special appearences by Ron Jeremy, Mark Togel (who played Melvin in the original movie), Dan Snow (known as CigarFace from the original movie), Corey Feldman and narration by Stan Lee, this is the best sequel of the Toxic Avenger franchise. It discards parts 2 and 3 as if they didn't happen and becomes the real sequel to the 1985 cult horror comedy classic much like "Superman Returns" did with the Superman franchise did with continuing off where parts 1 & 2 left off pretending that 3 and 4 never existed. This is a non-stop ultraviolent ride of dark humor, graphic gore, head crushing, sex, lesbianism, social satire on today's issues especially a satire on the Columbine murders and extreme violence galore that has the charm of the original movie that made it a cult masterpiece. The film may offend some people but hey, it's great gory-as-hell and tasteless but rib-tickling fun for fans of horror comedy, Troma, gore and cult movies.This 2-Disc DVD collector's edition contains the full Unrated director's cut loaded with awesome extras such as an introduction by Troma and Toxie co-creator Lloyd Kaufman, Three seperate audio commentaries, Trailers to this and a few other Troma movies, a behind the scenes look and interviews with the stars, some easter eggs, deleted scenes with optional commentary, Outtakes, Pre-production featurette, Toxie Mold make-up test, Script meeting, a 98 minute feature length documentary on this movie called "Apocalypse Soon", Clyde Lewis Dubs Toxie featurette, New York & L.A. premieres, and premieres at the international film festivals.

not better than the original but nearly just as good.
the first toxic avenger is one of my favorite films and on my list of favorite films. the 2nd and 3rd werent to great but after seeing the trailer for citizen toxie on my copy of the original i couldnt wait to see it. in this film toxie gets thrown into an alternate universe and an evil toxie named the noxious offender goes to toxies universe. toxie has to get back in his own universe and defeat noxie while battling other feinds along the way. this film is great. its full of over the top gore, gross out gags, politically incorect humor and gratuitous nudity everyone can enjoy. saying that, this film is not for everyone. people who are offended easilly or cant take a joke will not like this film because it makes fun of abortion, school shootings, the mentally handicap, racism and much more. the only thing that i didnt totally enjoy was that toxies make up wasnt that great. he looks cool, but his make up is kinda lame. toxie still looks cool and this movie is awesome. its nearly as good as the original and one of the few films i can watch over and over again. awesome!

I wish I could give it more stars
A long time fan of Troma, I was very excited about the next installment in the Toxic Avenger series. Let me just tell you that I have seen a lot of weird, messed up, and down right insane movies, but this one has got to take the cake. They spared absolutely no expense in trying to offend every person, political group, organization, and anything and everything basically under the sun. It made me proud. I was even shocked at the extent they went, and that is REALLY hard to do. Just when I thought they had covered all aspects of humanity they would add another tid-bit of juicy offensiveness. I was very impressed with the effort that they had obviously put into this film, in excluding nothing from it's insulting and vulgar attacks. It's hilarious, full of cheese, and has plenty of violence. The plot is simple: Toxie gets mixed up with his evil twin Noxie and they end up in each other's different planes of existence-let the fun begin! Fans of troma and Toxie will cherish this movie, after I rented it I had to own it. It also has plenty of extras on the DVD, including a troma trivia game. This movie is bound to shock even the most desensitized viewer, as it did me, and delight all you morbid peoples' funny bones! Definitely a classic, and definitely worth it's weight in gold.

The Ultimate Inner Conflict
After battling with a glutonous mayor of Tromaville, a towering Godzilla rip off and even the Devil himself, Toxie now faces his greatest adversary- himself. Citizen Toxie is by far the funniest, goriest and exploitive film Troma has put out since they originally put themselves on the map with their infamous head crushing scene from the original Toxic Avenger back in 1985.The film's opening and closing narrator is voiced by Stan Lee and he along with everyone else at Troma Entertainment apologize for their two previous ... sequels. They now have the chance with money, great special effects, lots of breasts, cheesy celebrity cameos and gore. This film will also answer all of those mindboggling questions within the Troma universe you've been dying to know for all these years.Such as, "If they made another Toxic Avenger film, what would it be like?"; or "If Toxie and Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD were to fight, who would win?"; or finally "How much blood, guts, gore, nudity, Ron Jeremy, Corey Feldman, breasts, the Sgt. Kabukiman car chase scene and Joe Fleishaker be crammed into a 2 hour feature film!?"Well rest assured that these and many other wonderful moments in cinematic history explode onto your tv screen with this jam packed 2 Disc DVD set. Not to mention all the extras like a 90 minute documentary on the making of this film, cut scenes, 3 seperate audio commentaries, great slapstick and satirical looks at life. This movie is a definite collector's item whether or not you are a Troma fan. And if you're not, ... watch and see what I grew up on.

Gross, disgusting - and SCREAMINGLY hilarious!
This may be the crudest, rudest, grossest, offensively tasteless film Troma ever put out......a perfect movie!Casting Ron Jeremy as the Mayor, and Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf as a profane God was particularly brilliant.Don't bother with the long critiques, the jokes are more fun when you don't expect them.Not recommended for prudes.

Better than the 3rd one
Some spoilers:I thought this movie was better than the 3rd movie, and tied with the 2nd movie. The first movie is still the best one of all 4 movies.The story is pretty interesting. Toxic finds himself in a different parallel world and a different evil Toxic avenger (Noxic) is in his world. Now Toxic has to find his world back home before Noxic takes over his world.In this movie, there were more jokes and fights than there were in the 3rd movie. All the jokes are of course R rated and will not be good for children to see. Most of the jokes were all sexual in nature and the most yet in any toxic avenger movie. I thought Toxic's girlfriend was better played in this movie, than she was in the 2nd and 3rd movie. But, she wasn't as good from the first movie. The last two movie, the girlfriend was really stupid and slutty. Sure, she was hot, but her acting and character played was bad. In this movie, this actress played her much better and acted like her first appearance in the 1st movie - all innocent and not sure what's going on type.There was a good fight scene, where Toxic was fighting Noxic and the Toxic twins were fighting at the same time inside of the girlfriend belly. The idea was really awesome. The fighting was all right, but the true purpose of doing that fight was to see which baby was going be born. Otherwise, the girlfriend will just die.I do recommend this movie over the 3rd any day.On a side note, I hope they make a Toxic 5 movie. In that movie, the Toxic twins will be alive, but I don't know how that is possible, so I would like to see that.

Over-rated sequel to the classic
I've watched the first 3 a lot recently and I think Part 4 is the weakest. Sad, because its the most ambitious by far.This film reverts a lot of things back the the first film. Toxie has his "robust man" voice again and his original blind girlfriend Sarah. Some of the original actors make cameos. But the magic isn't here like the previous 3. That magic is clever but goofy slapstick humor and truly brutal horror. The jokes are just too easy and sleazy. And the violence is just boring.Troma has changed a lot since the 3rd film. Its moved away from its cartoonish Schlock Horror ("Nuke 'Em High" and "Surf Nazis") to punk rom-coms with gore thrown in ("Tromeo & Juliet" and "Terror Firmer"). This is them trying to recapture their late 80s style. Its good to see it happen, but it doesn't quite work. Humor has changed alot too. This film is just poop, rape and retard jokes. This film is heavier on jokes, but less consistent of funny ones.But the film deserves praise for its snotty attitude, clever plot twists and a few great performances like Sarah and Tito the Retarded Rebel. It has a great plot but just too much lame dialogue and annoying acting. Annoying editing too. It pumps some freshness into the Toxie series and ends it on a rather promising note. Hopefully there will be better sequels down the line.

Horror on the Range
Mostly filmed in the Mojave Desert, "Tombstone Canyon" (1932) combines B-Western action with atmospheric chills. Hard-riding cowboy star Ken Maynard and his wonder horse Tarzan track down the mysterious Phantom Killer (played with creepy flair by Sheldon Lewis) for 62 minutes of Saturday Matinee nostalgia. One of Maynard's better efforts, with solid camera work from Ted McCord and a surprising plot twist during the climax. Don't miss the pre-Code World Wide Pictures logo!

The usual action scenes, but ridiculous plot holes. The vast majority of the plot points made no sense whatsoever, I think Michael Bay is trying to make the worst possible movie that still makes millions of dollars.

Just Not Worthwhile
I wish I hadn't spent the money . . .It follows in the same style as the other two Transformers movies, but it turns the formula up a bit. There's more action and more bickering between characters, but plot, story and character development, drama, and any semblance of intelligence are sacrificed for it.Yes, the special effects are cool, but the dialog and interaction between characters is downright painful, which kept suspension of disbelief from kicking in.If I had it to do over again, I'd rent this one.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (Blu-ray)
Movie - 4.5The first Transformers did a pretty good job. It has a great cast, great production value, a gripping score, and even a little humor. It's innocent enough that you feel for the character of Sam Witwicky, realize the scope of the Autobot/Decepticon war coming to earth, then get to watch it all unfold as a grand and adventurous sci-fi actioner. Revenge of the Fallen.. not so much. It takes the nobility out of Optimus Prime's character, overshadows the plot with a little too much juvenile humor, one-liners, and situational comedy for my tastes, then tries to go beyond the conventions of sci-fi by making a "heaven for robots," while also making its female lead completely infallible to makeup discrepancies, then decides to ghetto-fies its robot cast by adding two inadvertently segregating "black" twin robots, and even flashes the movie-goers with John Toturo's ass in a jock strap (not a pretty sight). So yes; a writer's strike, no story or script, and only a year to shoot set the movie franchise back a bit (at least from a fanbase perspective). Thankfully, though, Dark of the Moon makes up for it, even surpassing TF1 in terms of character development, overall scope, and of course, brevity of action. For the writing, I enjoyed three particular elements: the ambition and search for self-worth of Sam's character, the more gritty and no-holds-barred nature of the storytelling, and the downright sense of treachery that seemed to loom throughout many of the characters. We see Sam yearning to feel useful and finding a purpose in life. He can't a find a job despite saving the world twice already, but at the same time knows he's capable of so much more than the office job he ends up with. His new girlfriend doesn't want him to be as ambitious because she feels that same kind of ambition is what got her bother killed in the military. Yes, the first half of the film is about as "fluffy" in spirit as the first two, but the overall structure is much less comedic than the former and substitutes it with a more epic story and darker tone in the second half. People and robots are killed, betrayal runs amok, and total kinetic action ensues for pretty much the entire duration of the movie thereafter. It's escapist sci-fi robot fantasy at its best that's a technical marvel, wonderfully choreographed, and everything one could hope for in a Michael Bay film.Video - 5.0- Video codec: MPEG-4 AVC- Video resolution: 1080p- Aspect ratio: 2.40:1- Original aspect ratio: 2.39:1Prior to this BD release I'd only seen Dark of the Moon in 3D in theaters (and 3 times, to boot). If the 3D was that impressive, I'm sure a 2D BD presentation would've been just as stellar as the previous entries, and boy is it. They really went all out in filming this using 6 different cameras, 4 types of film negatives, and another 6 types of cinematographic processes ranging between 35mm, digital, and 3D dual-strip. While TF2 barely accomplished anything with its crappy IMAX sequences (not crap in the sense of quality, but the fact that there was just so little of it), TF3 has some amazing cinematography in general, whether it be 2D or 3D. As far as the 2D presentation goes it's as demo-worthy as you can get. The CG and visual effects in particular are pristine and flawless in terms of detail and clarity. All the lines in the robotic parts, scuffs in peoples' faces, stubble on their chins, tiny bits of debris falling from the sky, sparks ricocheting off of exploding structures, water droplets from splashes, steam and smoke from fired weapons, everything is perfectly visible from any given angle under every kind of lighting imaginable. Blacks and contrast are the biggest draw for me revealing lots of fine texturing in the production design, while colors are very vibrant, particularly in opposition to the grittier look of the second half of the movie. There's hardly any noise to speak of aside from maybe a couple of dark shots filmed in 35mm. Everything has either a clean digital sheen or a fine layer of film grain. There's no over-saturation of colors, no noise reduction, edge enhancement, banding, or any of those detracting elements that may otherwise bog the video presentation. My favorite scenes for demo material would be the part where Sam meets Dylan for the first time (for a good contrast of colors with the least bit of CG) and, of course, any part of that massive last hour where they're fighting the Decepticons in Chicago (for a great mix of real and CG-integrated footage). I know the Oscar committee hates Michael Bay and are all about politics, but a film as technically sound as this needs to win an award at least for something like cinematography, visual effects, or editing.Audio - 5.0Languages- English: Dolby TrueHD 7.1- English: Dolby Digital 5.1- English: Dolby Digital 2.0- French: Dolby Digital 5.1- Portuguese: Dolby Digital 5.1- Spanish: Dolby Digital 5.1Subtitles- English, English SDH, French, Spanish, PortugueseWell, so much for Thor being my (previous) number one loudest BD (after its two-week reign). First, I want to address the supposed controversy about the use of a TrueHD encode. Yes, while TrueHD may be have the lowest bit rates of the three lossless codecs, it also takes up the least amount of disc space. I believe the reasoning behind this logic is because 1) it's still lossless; even TF1 has TrueHD and many people still refer to it as one of the premier demo discs, 2) not only does it still sound awesome, but it's even 7.1 to compensate for the fact that it is TrueHD in the first place, which if you consider TF1 to be pretty good, then this is even better, and 3) they need the extra space for the eventual 3D version which will surely take up more disc space, so instead of barely being able to fit a two and a half-hour movie in 3D AND with lossless audio without suffering possible compression issues, you do the math and tell me otherwise. Not to mention this disc already supports 3 other spoken languages in Dolby Digital 5.1 (again, more disc space). Now, as for the audio presentation itself, it should be a no-brainer. Greg P. Russell returns as re-recording mixer for, yet another, truly wonderful auditory experience. The guy has worked on all 3 Transformers films and 200 films altogether in his illustrious career. He's been nominated for 14 Oscars but hasn't won any because, again, the Oscar committee is full of pretentious sycophants that just won't give mainstream movies the credit they're due, let alone anything Michael Bay is a part of. Needless to say, this easily one of the finest presentations you'll hear on a BD. Dialogue remains clear from the center channel, even throughout the chaotic battle sequences, high and low ends are pitch-for-pitch perfect, directionality and separation are flawless from the remaining fronts, sides, and backs, and, of course, LFEs are expectedly ground-shaking. Specifically, the score by Steve Jablonsky is very fitting for the film. It works something to the affect of Hans Zimmer's work in The Dark Knight and Inception giving a very emotional feel to the happenings on screen. But it's to be expected since Jablonsky is a disciple of his. My favorite scenes: the highway chase when Bumblebee transforms in mid-air to catch Sam and the part where they fight Shockwave. Oscar committee, please be more open-minded and at least give Mr. Russell is much-deserved award.Extras - 0.5There's nothing here, of course, as they're pulling off an Avatar and trying to capitalize as fast as they can. But at least Paramount gave early warning. I'm sure the eventual deluxe package will have the usual commentary and 2+ hours of special features on a separate disc when it comes out. As much work as they put into this, I'm actually very eager to see how they did it.Overall - 4.0Based on the average scores and whether or not you even care for extras (or even 3D) this could either be a "buy now" or "buy it later" recommendation. I, for one, love special features in general and will gladly wait for a complete package. Those who don't mind a bare bones release, however, shouldn't hesitate to get this. This is easily the best of the three Transformers films. It has a gradually building plot structure, a better balance of humor, amazing production value, and is overall a darker and more satisfying film altogether. And with equally amazing A/V quality, fans of the franchise will definitely be pleased.

Completing the Collection
I bought this to keep my collection of Transformer movies intact. I found the setup for the plot a little slow going. I rate this as the third in the series should be rated. The fantasy is a little too fantastical. The action not quite up to snuff. The new girlfriend has the eye candy on her side, but the mystique is missing. The returning characters did their part in upholding the imagination of the film. I did not see this in the theater, thank goodness. It is worth watching again but not one for the ages.

Absolute trash.
I went into this movie hoping it could be better than TF2. It is, but not by much. I'm going to be honest. I think Transformers 2 is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I don't know why I saw the 3rd one, but the Chicago part looked interesting. Little did I know it would take 2 long boring hours to get that part. On top of that. It wasn't even that impressive. I hate Shia's parents. I hate his new girlfriend. I hate Michael Bay humor. I hate this movie and I hate the fact I spent 12 bucks to go see it. I don't think Michael Bay understand that everything gets boring without a plot or some kind of tension going on. It's so BORING. I literally sat in the theater hoping it was over only to look at my watch and see that only 10 minutes had passed.

Wait for Special Edition
I made the mistake of buying this version. But luckily I didn't open it once I got home, so I was able to return it today. I'm not going to fall for the same money trap again(Avatar). I'll just wait a few months and get the Special Edition one with all the extra features.Now me just ranting here for a bit. But what the hell Paramount, I know times are tough for everyone but do you have to do this to us. Trying to rip off the loyal customers is not good business.

Disappointed to say the least
First off, DIE HARD Transformers fan.First transformers movie from a character development, plot, story telling and CGI standpoint one of the best movies in last 10 years for the genre.Second one lacked many of those facets as the first had, but still produced a quality albeit flawed story. Plus the action was better.Third one lacked nearly any character development, story was poorly told with huge plot holes within the movie itself (not to mention tying any consistency with the previous two).The action scene was almost to long while being non-linear and really not very epic. Basically you sit through an hour and half of some comedic wit, tons of useless cameos, and watch Sam whine about how much his life sucks. Also Michael Bay fails miserably in replacing Megan Fox. I am not a huge fan of her as an actress but I found myself rooting for the decepticons to kill her replacement off often but to no avail.Finally "Spoiler alert"We are to believe that this advanced alien race takes over the city of Chicago, and the primary reason they do this is to enslave mankind to rebuild their home world. Yet in order to do this they go on a killing spree reminiscent of Mars Attacks on the city. I don't know about you, but if the Egyptians had vaporized their slaves those pyramids would not have been built as quick... Then we are forced to watch a movie called "Transformers" show us the epic struggle of mankind for another 30 minutes while a building is falling (physics and common sense aside). Finally to have mankind's struggle really mean nothing when Optimus just owns everyone with a splash of help from Megatron. Then the movie just ends... Thats it, no closure, don't bother to tie any plot strings together let alone insert a plot.I give the movie 2 stars to be generous because as I said, I am a Die Hard Transformers fan. But this movie was a greater disappointment then Green Latern and superman returns combined in my humble opinion.

This is not a movie review
This is not a movie review. If you are reading this by now you have already decided whether or not you like this movie. I am here to write about the product. In short, I liked the movie but, I didn't like this product. All that it provides is the move in three different formats; Blu-ray, DVD and download. The weakness is that that's it. No extras, no deleted scenes, making-ofs, or interviews just the movie. The movie looks good in 1080p which does it good service but, at the end I felt a little jipped when I find out that's all I got. At $20 you get what you paid for but, if you are waiting for the full home viewing experience I'd hold off on this buy and wait for the full set.

Meh... Could have been better.
Dark Side of the Moon, as others have pointed out, was not terrible. It had a lot of fun CG, plot, and action. My biggest complaints had more to do with Sam's constant screaming and/or ranting--and I mean CONSTANT--as well as the new girlfriend character. She was completely cardboard. I felt as though she added nothing to the movie aside from her good looks. At least the other girl had guts and grit and played a part in the action. This girl was just a pretty, blonde damsel in a white dress and pumps (oh, yeah--and don't forget the clunky black glasses for whenever the director wanted to show us she wasn't just a dumb hot chick. cheap. really cheap...)My husband and I fast-forwarded through any relationship angst/talk between her and Sam--they seemed forced and insincere and they cluttered the movie in a weak attempt at a sub-plot. What could he see in her anyway(aside from the obvious)? She had no personality and just got in the way of the story. Yuck.Otherwise, it was a fun no-brainer.

OK, I'll make this simple...
I'll make this simple folks. I haven't seen the film, but I'm sure it rocks, as I even enjoyed TF2. But here's the deal. This is a bare bones release. Standard 2D BD and DVD copy. That's it. If you're fine with that, go ahead and buy this cheaper version. But if you're any at all interested in extra features and 3D (<~ which I'm not, btw), then wait for the Deluxe Editions coming out in Q4. In fact, this title was originally supposed to come out in Q4, but Bay decided to release this bare bones version for those who couldn't wait and aren't all that concerned with special features. I don't go to the theaters anymore myself, so waiting years for film is nothing for me, so another couple months for the BD is no biggy for me.

Better than I thought it would be
I'm not talking about the DVD. I'm talking about the actual movie.I'm one of the few who didn't mind ROTF, but I agree that it did have too many things going on.Now that Megan Fox is out of the picture, I could see Michael Bay and his creative team ask themselves, "Who would be perfect to cast as Sam's (Shia LeBeouf) girlfriend?" Michael then tells everyone he has the perfect woman in mind and she would fit the role perfectly. Or should I say, fit the tight outfights perfectly? So, Michael goes for the one kind of woman that would be so far out of Sam's league that OF COURSE she happens to be the kind of woman that goes for him. She's smart, charming, understanding...and a freaking SUPERMODEL. Naturally, I assume that Rosie was chosen simply for her looks. But what surprised me wasn't the cliche 'hot blonde with a smoking hot body who falls for the nerdy guy' routine. It was Rosie's acting. She's better than Megan Fox! Granted, that's not saying much, but still.Shia is in his best form and I think he's probably the best natural actor of my generation. Josh Duhmel is perfect of course and so is everyone else. Granted, they have the most random greatest actors doing stupid stuff, but this isn't an oscar type movie. It's entertaining. And that's exactly what it delivers.Do I get tired of seeing women like Rosie cast in parts that should go to someone who's actually known for something other their body? Yes. Will it ever change? That depends on if the production companies stop thinking with their "little producers". So...basically, that's a no.Overall, I enjoyed it. I loved Bumblebee kickin butt and taking names, Sam squealing like a girl when he's in danger, the music, the supporting roles, and even Rosie (mostly because to her credit, she can actually say a line and not make me cringe).Next time though Bay, why don't you try an actress who's believable and has experience? Just go out of your comfort zone for a change.

Not as bad as the previous, but not all that great
One thing that baffles me, is how someone who was never a fan of the original cartoon and an almost 70 year old producer are somehow qualified to revamp a franchise and cater it to the same kids-now adults that will wonder if they ever watched the series, researched the series or have a clue as to why kids liked it in the first place. Somehow I can't find the answer and that has been the biggest problem with this franchise. Besides Prime, nothing is relatable to the original series to tie these same adults to it in a manner that will have longevity. Basically they got it wrong, when sometimes people get it right and satisfy the youth locked into the 20-30 something adult much like some goof-off movie like Fanboys or recently Iron Man. Still, all nostalgia aside even as a casual fan, the last two movie totally sucked. The story's were lame and the dialogue was horrible and almost embarrassing, I would never tell someone to watch it out of feeling shame when they thought it sucked.I walked into this movie expecting it to be worse, as usually the middle act of a trilogy is the best and thus I had no inclination that this could be drug out of the gutter. I was surprised. The movie still suffers from the usual nonsense however. Steven Spielberg has this penchant for always adding wise cracking "Gremlin" style characters to his movies and they are in abundance here. Laserbeak looks like a robotic reject puppet part from the movie "The Dark Crystal" without the puppet cast and has the most annoying, cliche' 80's sultress cartoon voice. Imagine a evil female villian from any Disney film and there you go. These characters use social dialogue which will only date a film years past and are annoying in present day as it is, adding horrible top 40 music doesn't help either. How can I get into a movie with that girlie guy from American Idol singing in the background, its impossible. The script is a little better this time around but for a movie targeted at kids and to sell kids toys and other stuff, its laced with adult themes and slander. I would not take a child to this movie under 10, maybe 13. When gremlin mini robot says "this is a cluster" at which time the scene changes everyone knows what they are implying. So whats the point of that? To be clever? This movie is dumbed down like a comedy, but uses adult themes like a drama, but has hardcore action scenes like a "R" action movie, autobots getting their heads blown off execution style. Who is this catered too? Kids? Adults? Again I am lost. The action scenes were well done, way better than the previous films inwhich the director is so impressed with the CGI that they slow it down and ram it down your throats while ignoring the reason they are in the scene to begin with. I once knew someone that said they thought it was awesome because the affects were so neat. Thats a sad thing to say about a movie. This time they ace all the close-ups of the gears and constant motion and use longer shots and more character driven scenes, such as between Bumblebee and that kid who isn't called Spike. There are some throwbacks in this film, unlike the others that avoided them. Megatron is still nothing like the character people rememeber. They debut Shockwave but give no explaination of where he came from, however he is at least similar to the origianl. They break out a new "Prime" using Leonard Nimoy, who voiced Galvatron in the animated cult classic. He is moreless Ronimus Prime gone bad. The movie imploys the storyline losely of the episode "The Ultimate Doom" from the 84 season. Bringing Cybertron to earth. Cybertron by the way is a desolate shell of a planet with no life...why bring it to Earth via a space bridge is never explained. Another thing never explained is how this kid picks up hot chicks like his love interest. That is more unbelievable that anything in the movie.

A visual spectacle that's still lacking that extra spark
Transformers: Dark of the Moon managed to shoot itself in the foot before it was even released and it wasn't just one happy accident out on the job. It got to the point where it seemed like they took a semi-automatic pistol and unloaded an entire round of bullets into this metaphorical foot. Between Megan Fox getting fired, Shia LaBeouf claiming that the film has "a lot of human death," that this was their "best film to date," and that "you don't breathe" during the action-packed last hour of the movie, and apparently Steven Spielberg claiming this is the best use of 3D to date even trumping Avatar, Dark of the Moon had a lot of hype to live up to and a lot to make up for after the travesty that was Revenge of the Fallen. While it does fall victim to a few famous Bay-isms a handful of times, Transformers: Dark of the Moon will still be the movie king of the summer.When it comes to the writing, this is probably the best written Transformers film to date. Jokes actually feel like they're almost humorous while irritating characters don't receive much screentime. In the very least, it's at least a definite improvement over Revenge of the Fallen in that aspect. But there are certain things that are squeezed into the film that may not sit well with you. Some of the dialogue is really atrocious. At the beginning of the movie, we have this rather stunning scene of Cybertron at war that bleeds into the moon landing of 1969. The whole thing is put together surprisingly well as actual footage and movie magic almost make Sentinel Prime and The Ark crashing on the moon feel genuine. That sucks you in rather effortlessly, but it's ruined after we jump to a scene with Carly (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley) waking up Sam (Shia LaBeouf) talking about a lucky bunny. Sam's parents are still annoying as well, but luckily we don't see much of them. There was news of Michael Bay claiming he may not work with Shia LaBeouf again since he's become like a cranky, old man on set and that seems to translate on screen. Sam is pretty whiny this time around and complains a lot. Him yelling so much in Dark of the Moon is actually pretty entertaining, but that's probably because he mixes it up a bit and doesn't just shout, "OPTIMUS!" over and over again for two and a half hours.New cast members manage to make a big splash even if most of them only have small roles. Frances McDormand is great in her role, but is cold hearted at the same time since Mearing is the type of woman who takes charge first and asks questions later. John Malkovich is fairly funny though. The pictures on his desk pretty much solidify the ridiculousness of his character, but his appeal is kind of ruined once he interacts with Bumblebee. It was also nice to see Patrick Dempsey step away from typecasting. Whether his decision was a successful one is completely up to you, but it's respectful to see an actor take a chance every once in awhile. Ken Jeong is around long enough to make you notice his over the top antics, but is at least funnier in this than he was in The Hangover Part II. Alan Tudyk is easily the best new addition to the cast. His one-liners are funny, his character is useful, and he has one scene in particular where he shows he is a force to be reckoned with. Most of you will probably be wondering about how Rosie Huntington-Whiteley does in her first acting gig. Even though she plays a different character, she's basically the Megan Fox of this movie and plays that role just as well as Fox did.The special effects in this movie are pretty much unparalleled compared to anything else you've seen before. There are certain scenes that seem like Michael Bay returned to an idea from one of the previous two movies to do it again this time around and do it bigger and with better camera positioning; almost as if he was like, "THIS is what I meant for it to look like." The prime example is the freeway scene where the decepticons are trying to get to Sentinel Prime. There seems to be this "epic" freeway sequence in most Michael Bay movies; Bad Boys II, The Island, and at least one of the last two Transformers movies. This one seems to take it to the next level though. The slow-motion effect continually used throughout the movie will blow your mind as it gives you a moment to digest this explosive spectacle you've just witnessed. The movie is worth seeing for the last hour alone. That's where the insanity kicks into high gear. Soundwave is generally a fun villain to watch anyway, but him tearing through that glass building is something else entirely. The last hour is as captivating as Shia LaBeouf claimed it would be mostly because it's just nonstop giant robot destructive mayhem that entire time, which is pretty much the only thing you want to see in a movie like this.Dark of the Moon may be a bit darker than you're expecting if you haven't kept up with all the news revolving around the movie. New characters that are introduced die, main characters die, and there is a countless number of humans that die. The movie makes a statement; this is the biggest threat they have or ever will face. With Bay and LaBeouf exiting the franchise, we can only speculate that this was meant as finality. Other than the obvious gripes about a Michael Bay movie, some things might not sit well with you. The most obvious one being how wishy washy Sentinel Prime is. Is he a good guy? Is he a bad guy? Does Sentinel Prime even know which side he's on? A quick sidenote, Star Trek fans pay close attention to Sentinel Prime's dialogue. It also felt like Optimus spent a good hour tied up away from the action. So he killed off the villain in the last movie in three minutes and spent a good portion of this movie just hanging around. Megatron is easily manipulated and the Nascar autobot additions are pretty pointless. There are times throughout the movie where you can pretty much figure out who's going to die and who's going to make it. What the decepticons will gain through this whole thing isn't exactly made clear either. The rebirth of Cybertron would probably be nice, but Megatron seemed perfectly content on making Earth his new kingdom in the past two movies. Turns out he just had this whole thing on the backburner this whole time?Transformers: Dark of the Moon is easily the best written movie of the Transformers franchise and features some of the most mindblowing special effects to hit a 3D movie screen. While it is an upgrade over Revenge of the Fallen, it isn't as entertaining as the first movie. Dark of the Moon falls victim to lame dialogue and weak story points at times, but it will more than likely go unnoticed by the average moviegoer as the last hour tries to compensate any weaknesses the movie may have with extravagant and extremely impressive special effects littered amongst destructive and catastrophic chaos. Dark of the Moon hasn't set out to make new fans, but it will excite and satisfy the people who already are.

Best Transformers movie ever.
Easily the best film in the series. Tranformers: Dark of the Moom is the summer event film I have been waiting for. Perhaps the biggest surprise here is that the girl replacing Megan Fox is a much better actress. The action and set pieces, including an amazing chase scene on a freeway are incredible. The last hour set in a war-torn Chicago are some of the greatest sequences ever put to film. Shia does a terrific job being both witty and funny, but also very emotional when the time comes. Unlike the first two Transformer movies, this time it truly feels like something is at stake. While I loved the first two for what they were, this one has a more authentic story and tighter narrative. Finally a 3D movie with actually depth in the shots! Your jaw will definitely drop in certain scenes.

These transformer movies are horrible. The special effects are the only good thing about these movies. The actors, especially the main actor have drab storylines, stupid dialogue, and the transformer voices are poor. Unless you're a kid, this movie is not for you.

Forget your brain and allow your eyes to get your money's worth
Transformers: Dark of the Moon is a stupid summer movie, but it is a huge improvement over the last film in the series and features some of the best CGI ever. The story is oh so familiar, you know, giant robots from outer space fighting the other space robots that have taken a liking to the human race. This time we learn about a secret 1969 mission to the moon that had to do more with stealing alien technology than just the accomplishment of the landing on a moving space rock before the Russians.Like Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, this is a long movie (nearly 3 hours with previews) and you will definitely feel the length. As great as the visuals are, director Michael Bay never lets up in the last hour and it becomes a draining experience. But hey, there is some beautiful destruction as the robots demolish Chicago. Not to mention that the fight scenes are shot well enough to tell who is fighting who.The cast is huge and they do a good enough job, though most of the dialogue, as expected in a Michael Bay film, is very weak. I will admit that some of the jokes landed this time around. Shia LaBeouf was less annoying here than in the previous two and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley replaced Megan Fox with ease. She looked good and her character's personality was way more likeable. Not bad for a Victoria's Secret models first acting role. Francis McDormand added a bit of believability to all the stupidity, while John Turturro, John Malkovich and Ken Jeong provided plenty of weirdness. At least they seemed to be having fun, but we all know the real stars of the series are the robots. We get a bunch of new ones and the old favorites. Leonard Nimoy provided excellent voice work for the former Autobot leader (I loved the Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan reference). Hugo Weaving still gives Megatron the right amount of ferocity, but the standout, as in the previous two movies, is Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime. His voice adds a quality of strength and compassion to an already noble character. When he is not talking, let's just say that Optimus does not mess around in this one.I tried to see it in IMAX 3-D. To my disappointment the theater was only showing it in digital 3-D, so I went with that after reading that 3-D is the only way to see it. I was very impressed. Probably the best since Avatar. I noticed almost no blurring and the picture was crystal clear.To my surprise, half the theater clapped when it was over and that rarely happens. As for myself, I wasn't expecting what I predict The Dark Knight Rises will deliver next summer. It's a good summer movie that never pretends to be anything more. The CGI is worth admission alone, but there are a number of good laughs, more action than anything in existence and the moon landing sequence might trick you into believing that you won't lose as many brain cells as you did with Revenge of the Fallen, but don't worry, they will be gone forever by the time the end credits role.3 and 1/2 out of 5 stars

Forrest Gump to Michael Bay: "Sometimes we do things that just don't make no sense"
Megatron was going after the Cube on earth AND meeting up with Spock (aka Sentinel) for making the ultimate bad-ass portal? How many other things will they tack on to that moment in history? Transformers 4 anyone?The Soviets took pictures in 1963 of the Pillars drag marks and stockpiled on the moon. Who were these Decepticons that did this and why didn't they attack Earth for resources if they had nothing else to do?Soviets never bothered to tell anyone about those early pictures they took? Sure would have been helpful to the Autobots years ago huh? Another story spoiler the writers couldn't afford.Sam's hot model girlfriend (who cares what her name is) has her opening scene showing a close-up of her perfect a_ss in panties. Can we get back to the robots now and schedule her p_orn movie later? -And let me know the title for that moviePoor Sam having it tough getting a job....that storyline took too long and got annoying fast.Sam just happens to get a job where one of the few human worshiper-spies for the Decepticons works? That sure was convenient. And what was up with that psycho Asian guy's attitude? Were they desperate for the underwear-disgusting, gay-like comedy?The Autobots revive Sentinel and speak to him in English when they try to calm him down. I sure hope he had been to earth in the past otherwise I can understand why he's so freaked out by the Autobots' voices.Sam's parents camp out near Sam's hot model girlfriend's house and give him woman advice....creepy.Sam tells his mom that his hot model girl is "the one". Really? If Mikaela dumped him after two big adventures and years together....how long can he last with a hot model who doesn't like him risking his life?Just after Sentinel reveals he's really with the Decepticons and all h_ell breaks loose and Ironhide is killed, Sam goes back to visit his folks to have the girlfriend chat to change the pace of the movie??I'm not sure which is worse: McDreamy as the traitorous bad guy, or Spock doing Sentinel's voice.The Autobots' ship is destroyed in true shuttle-Challenger-explosion fashion....double creepy.Sam can't shoot McDreamy from 10 feet away before getting b_itch-slapped? Of course not, we need McDreamy to turn the Pillar back on again later in the movie...and how did McDreamy know what to push?Sam basically ruins the Autobots desperately needed surprise attack with his bungled rescue of the hot model. Nothing like risking the fate of the world on a guy who's jealous-hot for a potential porn star and can't shoot a gun.They spent a lot of movie time with human strike teams trying to get close to the Trump building but never did...Optimus shot at it via Shockwave's gun. They could have made a mini-movie of the tipped-building scenes....and I have to say that was the toughest building to destroy I've ever seen.The humans did "deceptively" well battling Decepticons with assault rifles. Remember how Vortex (the Decepticon helicoptor) obliterated the military base in the first Transformers?Spock gives his Vulcan line for "The needs of the many outweigh...." - that was my first clue that the film hit rock bottom. There's already enough homage to Star Trek in this movie - don't mess with Star Trek II.I'm sure Spock's plan to enslave us little fragile humans to work on the huge Cybertron metal planet will work just fine......was I the only one skeptical about this the moment he said it?I'm also sure that bringing Cybertron into close proximity would have NO effect on the Earth.Hot model girl saves the world by using her feminine wiles on Megatron?? That was my second clue that the film hit rock bottom.Megatron can see Spock about to destroy Optimus, so he doesn't wait a few seconds first before shooting Spock? And then Optimus takes the opportunity to kill Megatron.....see Megaton, that's what you get.I was very happy that Optimus wasted no time killing Megatron and Spock....unlike Sam who when handed a pistol from Epps, grabs it like a little girl grabbing an icky worm with her fingers.The film apparently had very obvious product placements, but I was too busy trying to find reasons to like the movie to notice.What's the best parts?1. Opening scene on Cybertron.2. Whenever Optimus is fighting.3. Any scenes of the hot model in panties or sexy outfits. And to think, when she was a kid her classmates made fun of her big lips and no b_oobs....where are those loser classmates now?(It should be noted - the "Transporter" dude is bangin her now and he's 20 years older than her. Now that's a REAL hero.)

Movie only
Although I didn't purchase this movie through Amazon, I thought I'd enjoy having this Blu-ray combo pack. The movie is fun. Better in my opinion than I would have thought. The action is fast and the CG has come a long way in the short time between the first and third movies.My one complaint is that although, you get a combo pack with the DVD and a digital copy, you get no extra features. If I had known that, I'd have waited to purchase it at later date. I thought it was insulting to include a coupon for the 3D copy of the movie in the package itself.Will I purchase the next version with all the extras? No.Buyers who don't care for any extra features will be happy with this version. The transfer to Blu-ray is very good. Surround sound works great on a home theater system.The story is really only an excuse for the action. Don't think about it because there is very little plot. It's a fun popcorn movie but missing vital information for those interested in any of the background information.

no speacial features
This is a good movie. Just stay away from this version. I was excited and bought it on release day only to find out that it is just the feature film. I was really disappointed. I would never have purchased this movie if I had known that it was the feature only. Yes, I know, in my excitement to get the movie, it was my own fault for not looking carefully at the back of the box, although, nowhere could I find that it says feature film only. I used to download movies illegally. I stopped and started buying them legit again because the special features are really enjoyable. When the companies charge full price for the feature only (which i can get from netflix anyway), I feel cheated. Maybe everyone should start downloading illegally and really send hollywood or whoever a message that if they want our hard earned money they need to work a little harder for it. This is just my rant.

Bogus - no special features - rent it, don't buy.
(SORRY...THIS IS FOR BLU-RAY, NOT AMAZON INSTANT VIDEO) Would have given 4 stars for the movie/blu-ray, but I was very disappointed there were no special features at all - not even notes. That's the main reason I like DVDs and blu-rays so much...for the special features that may contain commentary, interviews, behind the scenes and show how some of the FX were done - explosions and such. I'm sure they will release another version in the near future with the special features movie buffs enjoy and spend more cash$ Who the hell comes out with a new release Blu-ray in this day & age with ZERO special features??? DO NOT BUY - RENT FROM RED BOX.

Not even rental worthy
Ok so I heard that this was better than the last Transformers (didn't see that one), so I thought it must be ok. It's got to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Horrible acting, not sure why Shia LaBeouf is an actor...think Matthew McConaughey and Ben Affleck, but without the charisma. If you are into cartoons,explosions and superficial story telling then it might be palatable for you....otherwise you'd be better off watching the grass grow.

Love 3D hate the Price.
who is on crack that they think any movie is worth 42 dollars 3D or not. This is just another scam like with cell companies and internet providers charging for data like there is some limited amount that isnt self imposed. The technology is not so overwhelming in RD to cost 4 times that of dvd and twice that of blu ray.Dont get me wrong love 3D and this was one of the best 3D movies I have seen but honestly 42 dollars just is taking advantage of consumers in a market that has no where else to go. If this disk was 30 bucks Id by it hesitantly but thats the problem with blu ray they charge way to much for the theatre experience. Sad too cause this movie and captain america are ones i would have bought but i refuse to let them think this is a good going price for the gimmick.

Liked it, but not true to form from the first movie. Hope a fourth comes with original damsel. T3 damsel just not what I anticipated nor looked forward to. Bring back the brunette at any price. She was worth it. The blonde just had no spark. I will look forward to number four if you put the brunette back in where she belongs. If you forget where you come from, you will never know where you are going. Some fool forgot that the brunette brought spark. The blonde brought nothing to her character except a stupid kind of normal. I was disappointed in T3. But I love that Bumble. He is my kind of cool. If your producers understood people at all, they would have recognized that with our current economy, people need to see loyalty and responsible conduct. If you build a T4, I will watch that one too if you bring back the brunette and show America we are truely loyal and steadfast! Suspenseful. Intriguing. The blonde was a let down to the original theme. Somebody thought too much and ruined T3 for me.

WAIT FOR THE BETTER DVD COMBO!! So dissapointing!
I pre ordered this thinking it was a great deal for 18$ but I was so wrong! Not only was it just the blu ray movie but there were NO EXTRAS on either the blu ray or the regular dvd!! They rushed this out to trick us all. This is worth 5$ not 20$! For 20$ I bought the extended edition blu ray/DVD combo edition of suckerpunch and it came with over 4 hours of extras! WAIT FOR THE BETTER VERISON! THIS MOVIE IS SO INCREDIBLE save your money and wait to see it with the extras! trust me!!! I returned this the day I got it, and will be saving up for the deluxe edition and maybe even the box set with tons of extras!

Probably the best movie of the year
I don't understand why people didn't like Revenge of the Fallen. I thought that was great. I thought that the first Transformers the best... Until I saw Dark of the Moon. Dark of the Moon was just a perfect movie. It had comedy, suspense, and (Most importantly) action. Some of these action sequences were just great. And there were some white knuckling sequences that you HAVE to be prepared for. And Shia LaBoef was just great with the new actress. She was better than Megan Fox. In more than one way if you know what I mean =) But altogether, this was an A+ in my book. So dissapointed that it's the final one. Michael Bay, this was your MASTERPIECE!

Best Transformers yet! Best of the three!
I wasn't blown away by the first movie, it was good but not great. The second wasn't as good as the first, but I have to say I loved everything about Dark of the Moon. The 3D was awesome! The movie was great! And I never was much of a Transformers fan. The movie had some minor flaws but the positives easily negated them for me. The battles were easier to distinguish between the robots, they where in much more detail than in the previous movies, the special effects were better and I loved that the human race had equal time in the fight and actually looked like they were able to fight back. And I thought Sam had a better presence in this one. He was a hero this time. I just loved this movie!

Worst movie of the year so far...
I had heard that the movie was bad before going in,but I was surprised to know just how bad.The first few minutes were interesting. The 3D was good and the story was entertaining. And I pitied Bay when Sam wasn't able to find a job. People have said that Bay was sad after people hated Falled so much,and so he tried to make Sam feal like him. Why is Bay so greedy for money anyway? He shouldn't have made this one,it is horrible to say that Megan Fox's character dumped Sam. After all they have been through??? I mean seriously! Can you imagine going back to watch the first two where the relationship was built knowing that it would be torn dow in the third?But then it transformed faster than Magatron can into a comedy which can be compared to the Muppets. The jokes are insane and sick. I was surprised and started to worry that the whole movie would be like that.Nope. Then came part two. Optimus Prime allows an ENTIRE city of people to die just to prove a point.Then comes part three. BOOM! SMASH! PUNCH! BOOM! SMASH! PUNCH!,wait a moment,I thought I just watched that! It went on forever! There was a moment where I was just sitting there staring at the screen and allowing my attention to wander. I was just waiting for it to end...And then it did end:The battle was all too fast and short.

TransAmers: Darkside of the Moon bluray is worthless plea for common sense
There's just no point to it. The movie sucks, it's pure garbage. The bluray sucks, there are no special features, just the movie. Not worth the price. Save your money for something worthwhile, it's a tough economy right now and this film doesn't deserve any of your hard earned money. The fact that they're releasing a bluray of the film without any supplements with the intent of releasing another bluray later this year with everything is just plain selfish business. This movie was so absolutely terrible, and if you honestly liked this and thought it was anything more than what it is, going so far as to say it was a 'good movie' then that's just sad. There are thousands of movies already out on bluray and still coming that deserve your $20 more than this one. If I may recommend it, spend your money on Tree of Life when it comes out just a week later on bluray. It's not the greatest film ever made, but it's the best to come out this year and the bluray is going to be so amazing. That movie alone is more rewarding in one viewing than this film could ever be. But regardless, please just don't buy this movie, especially not this version of the bluray. If you want to spend $20, give it to a charity or something, or keep saving up because the economy could nosedive again at any moment and this movie isn't worth the risk. Tree of Life is, but not this. NOT THIS MOVIE. YOUR MONEY IS WORTH MORE. DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THIS. NOT THIS MOVIE.

MORE MINDLESS GARBAGE FROM THE BAY TRASH FACTORY.....
How could anyone watch any of these Transformers movies and consider them to be anything but garbage of the lowest order? Michael Bay is without a doubt a brainless juvenile delinquent. Bayformers 3 might not be filled with as much cross burning racism and military propaganda as part 2, but it's still an insultingly stupid movie. Now, I know this is based on a cartoon about robots that turn into vehicles, but Thor/X-Men: First Class/Captain America were based on comic books and all three of those movies were very well made for the types of films that they were. Popcorn movies don't have to be dumb and when audiences flock to see crap like Bayformers they're practically paying to be treated as though they were mentally deficient.Michael Bay's Transformers movies are to Science Fiction as the Twilight movies are to the Horror genre and it's truly sad to see that both franchises have made soo much money as it proves that I.Q.'s are dropping across the board. Bayformers is to cinema what The Jersey Shore is to television as Justin Bieber is to music; the lowest common denominator.

kind of a pathetic dvd
I guess i should have done more research before i bought this. I enjoy the transformers franchise and even though i feel like the 2nd and 3rd movie will never live up to the quality of the 1st I enjoyed this one enough to decide to buy this bluray/dvd hoping that the blu ray format and additional special features would keep me entertained. Well when you put the movie in you are treated to; the movie, different audio languages, and nothing no commentary, behind the scenes, deleted scenes,etc.......If you want nothing but a movie buy it off itunes or something, I'd recommend getting the other special edition version that i learned about after I already bought this one

The definition of a good movie
It's very interesting reading the reviews of all these so called "Critics". The movies are done for the viewers, not for critics. It is simple as that. This is an action movie which i enjoyed very, very much as well as the first two. Visual Effects and Transformers scenes are larger than any other and if the critics didn't like the movie, so be it with it. If it's such a bad moview as they said, how is it possible that it made more than $1B in screenings??

TF3 not that Great but...maybe the next Trilogy might be better?
Loved the TF G1 Series as a Kid and guess what I still watch them to this Today Seasons 1-4. Then came Summer of 2007 and TF's The Movie hit the big screen and Took what I loved and brought it to Life! the AutoBots/Decepticons were everything and More Then Meets The Eye! then 2009 Saw TF's:Revenge Of The Fallen and I loved it because it was a Straight Up Action Adventure Movie with a Decent Plot and lots of Special Effects to Make number one seem Small Scale but My Major Gripe is Sam was still acting like a Bitch through out the Movie and cost The Autobots their Greatest Hero until of course the Fabled Matrix Of Leadership Sub plot was used which made Optimus Prime into the Bad Ass Doom Bringer to Megatron and his Precious Savior The Fallen. well 2011 came and we get TF:Dark Of The Moon it was 50/50 great Special Effects and a not bad Story(much less interesting then 1&2) Sadly but 1 thing the Great Michael Bay Fudged up on is ! Sams still a Wimpy,Whiny sack of Crap through The Film! Um you would think He'd Be more of a Strong and Confident Man who sees the Value of helping Ensure The that Evil Decepticons never Win because it would be the Death or Enslavement of The Human Race and Considering what happened to Optimus in TF2 because Sam Acted like a Scared little Bitch and Optimus paid for that with his Spark. Luckily The Matrix Of LeaderShip saved Him and Thankfully Ensure he didn't Die again (permanently). I am Hopeful that with Shia not being in the Next TF's Trilogy they find a more Powerful and Mature Actor to Carry on the Franchise!!! (Jason Statham was mentioned as very Possible Replacement so lets All Hope it proves True?) I'd Love to See a Real Bad Ass in the TF's series like Mr.Statham kicking ass blowing up Decepticons and Ensuring Freedom Is The Right Of All Sentient Beings!!!
