No Sacrifice, No Victory!

Went to GV Vivo City to get tickets for the movie “Transformers”. Gosh, every single show on Saturday was sold out! Fortunately managed to get 8 tickets for Sunday.
Transformers is a movie about alien robots divided into good (Autobots) and evil (Decepticons) raging a war between each other while searching for a cube known as Allspark which is a source of life for them that has found its way into earth. When the battle comes to Earth, all that stands between the evil Decepticons and ultimate power is a clue held by young Sam Witwicky. An average teenager, Sam is consumed with everyday worries about school, friends, cars and girls. Unaware that he alone is mankind’s last chance for survival, Sam and his girlfriend, Mikaela find themselves in a tug of war between the Autobots and Decepticons. With the world hanging in the balance, Sam comes to realize the true meaning behind the Witwicky family motto–“No sacrifice, no victory!”

The transformations of the robots are simply amazing and awesome. The CGI fits in seamlessly with the live action. The robots morphed themselves effortlessly into auto-vehicles, helicopters and jet-planes.

I was completely blown away by the visual effects and genuinely entertained. I had a lot of expectations for this film especially with all the hype and anticipation surrounding it and I'm very glad to say that at least for me, it delivers! This is definitely one of those movies that set out to entertain you and does a wonderful job in doing so. It may not be the perfect movie, but it's definitely worth your while and your money. It's engaging, funny and has tons of "Wow" factor.

On another note, it’s time to start my fitness regime on Monday for the Regatta race. Time to sacrifice some time and effort on gym training, running and mental preparation, only then would we see some transformation and taste the fruits of victory!

This is a cool song by Linkin Park from the soundtrack
