A mockbuster is a film that is clearly a ripoff of another film. I really do wonder why the creators don't just sue the people who ripped them off. There have been much more frivolous lawsuits. "The Amazing World Of Gumball" did an hilarious parody of "Miracle Star". Anyway, this movie really does make the Transformers films look good. At least those had fairly good special effects.The special effects are as horrible as expected, especially with how they show the robots killing people with lasers. It's just these blue streams that leave holes in their heads. I remember near the end how they say that there are other survivors, but the budget is obviously too low to hire enough people to show them. At one point, someone says that the robots have destroyed most of the world and we just cut to a regular looking sky. Some destruction. The acting is truly horrible.I barely remember the first one, but this is actually a prequel. If there's such a massive invasion, why do we only see two or three robots at one time? Because the budget couldn't afford to put more in! This has so little effort put into it, it seems like it's doubtful to even call it a movie at all. It's mostly just people walking around. It doesn't even have two minutes of good action scenes like the Nostalgia Critic foresaw in "The Last Knight". 1/2*

First, I would like to say that the only plausible way the producers of this film could have gotten anyone to work on it was to offer them an unlimited supply of intoxicants. This having been said, the rest of the movie makes a lot of sense.Why are all of the explanations for things totally incoherent? How is it that a beaten up car pulls up every time something goes wrong? How can you torture a captured robot? What is the real difference between an alien and an extraterrestrial? Like a long night of drinking, the film seems to end time and again, only to jerk back into its own plot line. One such time we find the male and female lead slow dancing in a bar, which quickly escalates into a scintillating night of lovemaking. Fade to black (for 10 seconds), suddenly they awake to the sound of robots falling from the sky! Coming full circle, you might have to be utterly plastered to feel you understand what the film was getting at, or to appreciate it in any way.I highly recommend watching this movie.

I could not believe one of the "Transformers" movies had ended up so quickly on TV, not to mention on the no-budget Sci-Fi Channel. Then it began to dawn on me, especially when Shia LaBoeuf failed to appear and Bruce Boxleitner did: I was actually watching a ripoff of the big-budget movie, and an Asylum flick to boot. Horrible! It's men versus killer robots, except it's mostly men (and a woman or two) standing around, talking about killer robots. And the robots that do turn up are just plain silly looking. I wanted to claw my eyes out. But I did the next best thing and turned the damned thing off. I hope you will do the same.,

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.
