After my last fair review of The Asylums AVH you should know that I am a generous person. Unfortunately Transmorphers sucked, the CGI looks like a bad PS2 game and the acting is terrible. The Asylum really disappointed me, There's a difference between a flick that's so bad it's good and a flick that's utter tripe and unwatchable.
During the first hour I was bored to death, I couldn't even be bothered to watch the ending. However since I have gone back to watch the ending it was nothing impressive.
If you're looking for a bad movie that's fun to watch with friends, do not look here. THIS is just terrible, so many people with poor abilities were cast and the game CGI was just an insult. I've read that the budget for this flick was around $300K, well for that they could of at least found a decent special effects guy.
This is the worst Asylum flick, personally I blame the CGI and The Female actresses (There all terrible).
1/5
I do give credit to The Asylum for at least trying, but they didn't try hard enough. Small tiny Humans with pistols VS Huge robots was an idea that was an obvious failure from the start.

The final battle between man and machine begins - allegedly!
The story centres around a war between humans and a race of alien robots who have conquered earth. Responding to the message from one of the Voyager Space probes, the alien robots track the signal back and invade and for the last few centuries the last of the human race have been fighting back against them.
Humans now live deep underground in a city and make raids on the machines when they can. When a mission to capture a Z-Bot, in order to download a virus into its power core thereby disabling all of them goes wrong, the council have to take a convicted criminal out of cryogenic hibernation to lead the second attempt.
Cue an endless series of chases through dark wastelands, corny dialogue and special effects that would look more at home in a 1980's Atari game and you begin to see what the film is like.
Transmorphers is one of those films that you wish was so bad that it was good - but it's not. It's just bad. I wouldn't even call this a B-Movie as, quite frankly, that would be insulting to B-Movies everywhere.
The writers have borrowed ideas from so many other sci-fi films it comes out like a bizarre mix of all your favourites with none of the things that made them great. The acting is terrible, no-one has the capacity to emote and they're about as convincing as a puppet.
The robots themselves are quite nice but having borrowed heavily from Transformers (see what they did with the title of the movie - oh, the cunning wit!) and Macross they are nothing spectacular. Its a shame that the rather small budget didn't allow for better work. It may have been more sensible to have less robots and spend a little more on making them look good as opposed to the rather computer game graphics and movements that we get in the film.
End of the day, try watching Robot Jox as it's miles better than this and the mechs look better too. I never though I'd see the day when I'd be praising that film for something.
In the end, its a quick way to kill 90 minutes but I'm sure most of you who watch this will want that 90 minutes back.

No, it's not a spelling mistake; it really does say `TransMORPHers'.
Oh the wit! The sheer wisdom of imitating the title of a considerably better known movie smash! How sneaky! How delightful!...
LAME.
Be prepared to waste 86 minutes of your life on CG reminiscent of an 80's arcade game rusting in my basement and acting that gives a tooth- pick character. Mix this with a lifeless plot and hey presto!, the worst movie of 2007!
It's so mind-numbing, I can't even be bothered to talk about it anymore.

So bad.. this film shouldn't be made!
I saw this film on Zone Horror. It was one of the most crappiest films I've seen. The CGI effects were done so bad. Read more

Worse than "so bad it's funny"
Worst film I've ever had the misfortune to watch. The £3.00 I paid was £3.00 too much.
Bad acting, worse script, 1950's quality special effects.... need I say more!!
