Summary: 5 Stars
Really fun series. We've been watching it on the Internet so it was fun to really have it.DVD Review: Great series
Summary: 4 Stars
Transformers Animated is the most recent Transformers cartoon series, and, while it is a little kiddish, it retains the good old-fashioned Transformers feel to it.
There are a few episodes that were a little annoying--especially the ones with the pathetic human villains, which I felt are unnecessary.
My other big problem with Sari (besides her obnxious behavior) is that she has a Deus ex machina Key that fixes everything throughout the series. Even though the Key has side effects, it does not detain Sari from constantly (irresponsibly) using it throughout the series.
The Autobots are adjusting to Earth's ways with the help of a little human girl named Sari (who is, IMO, a spoiled brat--give me Spike any day!), while the Deceptions are mostly just looking for Megatron (and the AllSpark).
All of these characters have personalities. Optimus Prime is as protective as ever, Bumblebee is chatty and childlike, Prowl is as serious as ever, and even the Decepticons have personality. One Decepticon in particular has (literally) three personalities!
There are some other Transformers that show including a certain spider from a certain Beast Wars and Sound Wave.
This series has humor and action. I highly recommend it (as long as you do not mind the annoying humans, especially Sari).
DVD Review: Not what I remembered
Summary: 3 Stars
The episodes are OK at best. I compare them to the first the first two seasons of the SIMPSONS; Homer has the "different" voice and Bart is the main character. Here, Optimus Prime sounds "funny," Megatron does not look the same, Starscream is nowhere and they all work with and fight with humans. I know the later seasons will be much better. DVD Review: From mother of a 5-year-old
Summary: 5 Stars
Santa brought this to my son this year and he loves it. I appreciate that the 5 hours of programming are split onto 2 discs, so I have a little control of the hours spent watching what felt like "lost episodes" to us - because of not being awake at 7:30 am on Saturday mornings to watch them.
Description of Transformers Animated: Season One
n "Transformers" Season One, the Autobots swear to protect the ALLSPARK, their adopted new home Earth, and an 8-year old girl named Sari Sumdac, who not only becomes an honorary Autobot, but also a vital component of the team and the keeper of THE KEY, which serves an emergency power supply and healing source for the Autobots.
While Optimus Prime and his team of Autobots are out fighting Earth-bound super villains and basking in their new found superhero status the real threat, the Decepticons, are out there regrouping, preparing to return with a vengeance and will stop at nothing to get their hands on the ALLSPARK and THE KEY.
An engaging and action-packed mix of the original animated TV series and the blockbuster theatrical movie, Transformers Animated: Season One offers nearly all of the revived heroes' new adventures on a two-disc set. As seen in the previous DVD release, Transformers Animated: Transform and Roll Out, this generation of robots in disguise numbers just four--an inexperienced Optimus Prime and three companions--who have gone into hiding on Earth with the AllSpark, the source of energy for both good and evil Transformers. The Decepticons remain their chief enemies, though conflict comes from human sources as well, like mutated evil scientist Meltdown (well voiced by Peter Stormare). But the Transformers have their own allies as well; namely, an eight-year-old girl whose father happens to be a scientist. The good doctor, however, has what could be a trump card for the Decepticons in his possession: the disembodied head of Villain Supreme Megatron. Told in bold and breezy strokes by its writing and animation team, Transformers Animated does a fine job of incorporating much of the classic Transformers mythology into the new storyline while never losing sight of the show's key appeal: slambang fights between giant robots that can change into vehicles. That respect for the source material should please old school fans without leaving newcomers hopelessly lost in the Transformers' complicated backstory, which makes altogether possible the charming notion that fathers and their offspring can both enjoy this series at the same time. Unfortunately, all audiences wishing to catch up with the first season of Transformers Animated will not find the complete series on this double-disc set; the three-part premiere episode is only available on the aforementioned Transform and Roll Out disc. It's an unfortunate move, as is the lack of any substantial extras save for a gallery of Season 2 images. --Paul Gaita
