The film starts with Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots, describing in a voice-over the destruction of the Transformers’ home world, Cybertron. It was obliterated by the seemingly evil Decepticon leader Megatron in his plot to obtain the All Spark. The Autobots want to find the All Spark so they can use it to rebuild Cybertron and end the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons, while the Decepticons want to use it to defeat the Autobots and lay waste to the universe. Megatron discovered the All Spark on Earth, but crash-landed in the Arctic Circle and ended up frozen in the ice. Captain Archibald Witwicky and his crew of explorers came across Megatron’s body in 1897. Captain Witwicky mistakenly activated Megatron’s navigational system and his eye glasses were imprinted with the coordinates of the All Spark’s location, an incident that left him blind and mentally unstable. Sector 7, a secret United States government organization founded by Herbert Hoover, discovered the All Spark in the Colorado River and built the Hoover Dam around it in order to hide its energy emissions. The still-frozen Megatron was transferred into this facility and was used to advance human technology by means of reverse engineering.

 

In the present day, the group of Decepticons — Blackout, Scorponok, Frenzy, Barricade, Starscream, Devastator and Bonecrusher — have landed on Earth and taken the disguise of Earth vehicles (except Scorponok, who hides within Blackout). Blackout and Scorponok launch an attack on the U.S. SOCCENT foward operations base in Qatar and attempt to hack into the U.S. Military network to find the location of Megatron and the All Spark. Their mission is stopped when the base staff severs the network cable connections. Blackout destroys the rest of the base, while Scorponok chases a small group of survivors, lead by captain William Lennox and sergeant Robert Epps, but he is eventually repelled and, after his tail is destroyed, hides in the sand. This battle leads the military to discover the only effective weapons against the Transformers’ armor are high-heat sabot rounds.

After Blackout’s failed attempt, Frenzy sneaks into Air Force One to again hack into the military network, leaving a virus. He finds the map imprinted on the Captain Witwicky’s glasses. Witwicky’s descendant Sam Witwicky plans to sell the glasses on eBay. Frenzy and Barricade start tracking Sam’s location; but Autobot scout Bumblebee is already on Earth, disguised as a 1976 Chevrolet Camaro, He is purchased by Sam while shopping for his first car and eventually helps him win over his crush, Mikaela Banes. Bumblebee leaves at night to send a homing signal to the rest of the Autobots, and Sam sees him in robot mode. After an incident, Sam is arrested, and, in the police station, tries to explain the police officer what happened, but the man just thinks he’s on drugs. When Bumblebee returns the following day, Sam leaves, believing the car is stalking him; that leads him directly to Barricade. He and Mikaela are saved by Bumblebee. Frenzy’s body is damaged by Sam, but he changes into Mikaela’s cellphone and hides in her purse. They leave to meet with the rest of the Autobots — Optimus Prime, Jazz, Ironhide, and Ratchet — who have landed on Earth and taken the forms of Earth vehicles as well. Sam and friends return to Sam’s home and pick up the glasses; however, agents from Sector 7 arrive and take Sam and Mikaela into government custody. The Autobots disrupt the arrest, but Sector Seven eventually captures Bumblebee, Sam, and Mikaela.

 

Sam and Mikaela are taken to Hoover Dam, as are Lennox and Epps, under Defense Secretary John Keller’s orders. Frenzy sends an alert to the other Decepticons and manages to make his way into the computer system, freeing Megatron from his frozen status. Sam convinces the Sector 7 agents to release Bumblebee so that he can deliver the All Spark to Optimus Prime.Frenzy’s virus has already shut down government communications, but Keller and two computer hackers by the names of Maggie and Glen are able to establish a signal to the Air Force in order to support the Autobot-human convoy, who have gone to nearby Mission City to hide the All Spark. The Decepticons attack and Bonecrusher, Frenzy, Jazz, Devastator and Blackout are all destroyed during the battle. Sam, who was told to put the All Spark into Optimus Prime’s chest (which would destroy Optimus Prime) if the battle went in Megatron’s favor, neglects what he was told and chooses to ram the All Spark cube into Megatron’s chest instead, destroying it and killing Megatron at the same time. Optimus takes a small piece of the All Spark from Megatron’s corpse, but realizes that with its destruction, their home world Cybertron cannot be returned to normal. Following this, Optimus sends a signal to other surviving Autobots in the universe, ordering them to their new home, Earth. The government orders the closure of Sector 7 and has the dead Decepticons dumped into the Laurentian Abyss. Starscream, who ran from the fight when the tide turned is shown escaping into space.
