Wow where to start. Hmmm CGI, bad but not terrible. I guess it is like a very bad Sci Fi network show for quality. The way, or rather the reason they blow up is hilarious. Production value is pretty rough. They use the same old refinery from virtually all the Asylum movies. Actually they couldn't even scrape together their usual cast of ever returning actors. Seriously every movie has the same people playing small roles. It does give a certain continuity and ruins less careers I guess.They even manage to get some actors not working for scale like Bruce Boxleitner. However he can not save this dog.The camera crew does a decent job with what they have and the sound is OK. We are talking relative terms here. Ed Wood would call this a masterpiece, but it isn't. One production issue I had a problem with and at this point it would be nitpicking given the nature of these films. Keep the main character's wound in the same spot OK. It was almost never in the same spot. For that matter do people run around covered in their own gore for days on end? Which brings us to some other funny issues. The "scientist" gets a pipe put into her leg that they pull out while in the magical van that transmorphs from a 1994 Chrysler mini that the door wont shut on to a 2000 that is missing its wheel covers. So yes there was a transmorphing in the film. All while travelling very slowly(look out the window, trees are barely moving in the background...priceless) At least it was filmed in a vehicle. This character then limps for about half a scene before becoming pretty much fine. About on par with the girl in Cloverfield when pulled off the rebar.There are so many weird things happening with script and plot you have to see it to believe it. But the most epic part is when the Mayor whos' daughter has an operation(as you are told over and over) ask the scientist about the difference between ETs and Aliens. All I can say is she must have been pretty drunk during the shoot and they wanted to wrap. She is wobbling around slurring and is kinda touchy feely. "Thanks for the respect" LOL. The lines that do come out are incoherent at best and require the Mayor to explain what she meant while one of the other characters is caught rolling her eyes. In fact Dr Drool has a plate magically appear in front where she tied her sweater around her hips after the slurring explanation of what friendly/enemy like bad and good creatures from space are. At this point the Mayor mentions how good he is at cooking. She then remembers her cue but not the location of said magical plate. After wobbling a bit and looking around behind her in both directions, she gets that excited look (like a kid getting a bowl of ice cream)when she find it tucked into the front of her pants. I mean it has lots of funny moments but this was really the best for the 5 people who watched it with me. We had to re-watch it 3 times because we were crying so hard from the stupidity of the scene. "I guess thats a take eh!" Replied one of my buddies. The whole scene probably could have hit the cutting room floor. But it wouldn't have been a feature length film if they had tried to fix all the errors in this dog so why bother.To be fair I would have been pretty drunk while filming this too. I hope they had fun filming it, because it is very funny in a "The Room" sort of way. Better than some other Asylum films and I did like it better than Paranormal Activity. I wish one of the MST3K groups would take a crack at the asylum movies. Pure gold as they are a self parody.I gave it 4 for the effort and laughs, but its pretty bad, my official rating is 1 just so more people will see this ...um movie? Come on bottom 100. It really deserves to be there. Some of those movies don't come close to this bad. Gigli is terrible but at least it was produced and had some actors in it.

A cell phone turns into a Mini-Me Transformer--I mean, Transmorpher. It zaps a dim witted girl in a convertible, then also eradicates some idiot in a van. At this point, I was pulling for the 'Morphers. They were only doing away with fools, anyway.Red flags pop up everywhere with the film's title. This movie is every bit the joke you'd expect from one that packages a morphed title of a recent big-budget film (which was a poor movie to begin with). With a budget of about 99 cents, it's just about as novice and amateurish a production as you'll see. To begin with, there's really no plot; nothing is connected in any way.The robots pop up at random, and the CGI quality varies, as does the power of the 'bots. One minute they're impervious to rocket missiles, the next minute a wild pistol shot from a moving car at extreme distance can bring it down. The bullet-induced Morph explosions were way over done and absolutely hilarious. I love how the Morphers also recoil from projectiles that visibly haven't even hit them yet.The only name actor exits early, leaving the Drama 1A drop-outs to stage weird scenes. The romantic interlude is churned out poorly, maybe just to increase running time. You knew what was coming for most every character, who all seem to be parodies of themselves. In particular, the guy that talked about how "Russians tortured one of these things until it surrendered its memory chip." I laughed so hard I had stomach convulsions. Speaking of the Morphers themselves, they appear to be doing Three Stooges impressions. First they sneak up on victims and beam lasers from behind; then in later scenes they just stand around gawking stupidly.So utterly stupid. It's an Asylum flick, so have a Conkla Cola and a McDanny's Big Quack for snacks to munch while you laugh at this.

My gosh my gosh my gosh. SO bad, it makes Twilight seem perfect. (And I didn't "Hate" Twilight. I thought it was OK, but had many many flaws) I wanted to believe that it was even a little better then the utter atrocity that was the Transmorphers. I was slightly right, BUT THE BOTH SUCK! Hard. the acting is slightly better, but everyone still over acts or under acts! But everything else, a rip off of terminator, Transformers 1 and 2, and The Matrix! I mean, the ripped transformers right down to Megatron, and I swear they actually said Megatron.Final word, the film sucked, they both suck, don't watch it, because you won't ever get you're 90 minutes back.1 out of 10 stars, wish I could rate it lower.*'''''''''

I didn't think it would be possible, but this movie is actually worse than Transformers 2! This is not a parody of the Transformers movies or other action movies as the title may lead you to believe. It's actually (as far as I can tell) a serious attempt at creating an action/adventure in which humans come under attack by transforming robotic creatures and must fight back! Basically they took many of the essential elements that make up the Transformers franchise and repackaged them into their own movie. This has the benefit of removing Michael Bay from the equation, but is done at the expense of hiring convincing actors and high budget special effects. Unfortunately, the script is just as poorly written as that for Transformers 2! Now there are some out there who actually enjoy low-budget B-movies with cheesy special effects and poor acting. Sadly, the special effects were actually done on a high enough level where despite being slightly cheesy they're actually not that disappointing. Also, despite some of the acting being poor it's not bad enough to be entertaining for that reason and although the story is full of holes they're just not presented in a way where it might be easy for you to amuse yourself with them.Overall a bad movie, but even if you're in the mood for a "bad" movie I suspect you'll still be disappointed by Transmorphers Fall of Man!
