Eight reasons to like it:
- It had giant talking robots that kick ass.
- They didn't do the comic book movie thing where a hero/villian can will shot, blown up, and thrown through a concrete overpass and shake it off. But in the next scene he'll die from being thrown through a brick wall. (See: X-Men and Spiderman)
- The action sequences were intense and myriad, but no single sequence is dragged out. (See: Pirates, Matrix)
- The movie was just as long as it shoulda been. It's not short, but it's not full of unnecessary, longwinded scenes. (See: Pirates)
- The teen awkwardness moments were more goofy than tired situation comedy. (See: Any movie that involves hot cheerleaders)
- They spent a buttload of money on stuff that wasn't cgi. Putting too much money into a movie is like having too much beer at a party, is anyone going to say 'dude, your extra kegs are getting in the way'?
- No shameless setup for a sequel.
