Filmed in Chicago a summer ago, Transformers may wind up doing better in rental than it did in the movie theaters.

Here is a synopsis:

The war on Cybertron between the Autobots and Decepticons appears lost. The leader of the Autobots, Sentinel Prime, attempts to launch the Ark from their planet, with technology that could have saved his kind. It gets attacked and crashes on Earth's moon in 1961, when President John F. Kennedy makes his famous promise to the nation to put a man on the moon.
