I definitely recommend seeing this in IMAX before theatres replace it with the new Harry Potter movie. I was glad that Harry Potter didn't move into IMAX as soon as it opened, since I didn't have time to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen before Harry Potter opened. This movie is probably the best I've seen with seemless transitions from the IMAX scenes to the scenes not shot in IMAX format. There was only one scene where it was a bit annoying, since it jumped back and forth quickly a few times.
If you liked the last Transformers and enjoy action movies, you'll like this one. It's exactly what you'd expect of the sequel and I'd go see the next one. They did a good job with the story and I loved all the little transformers in the beginning. Very entertaining.
The special effects were (of course) a large portion of the movie, so if you have a chance to catch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in IMAX, I definitely recommend that. If not, it's still worth seeing on a big screen for the special effects.

I never know what to expect when they make a cartoon/toy into a movie. Some of those have been pretty bad, so I didn't expect much. I'm very happy with what they did with the Transformers movie. The special effects were very well done and the story was even okay. I figured the movie would be all about the special effects, but it was well done.
If you get a chance, catch Transformers on the big screen, since the special effects are definitely better if you see them on a huge screen.

For complete info, see IMDb's Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! page.
A small-town girl wins a date with a big celebrity trying to clean up his image. The date goes better than anyone anticipated and all of a sudden the celebrity is acting like a changed man. Of course, the girl's best friend has issues with this, since he's always had a crush on her... It's a chick flick and a bit sappy, but it's a cute movie. Worth seeing if the cute romantic comedy is your thing. I enjoy them for what they are - totally light afternoon fun. If you can do that, then you'll enjoy this. If a movie has to have more meaning for you, forget Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!.
The cast is really great. I adore Nathan Lane and Sean Hayes and seeing them work together was great. They're such great comic actors!
