Easily the best character in the film.

He was interesting. I liked that he used a computer interface needle, just like Robocop's.

Almost stole the movie. The funniest scene had to be him leaving AF1 and making his way to Barricade.

I actually thought he was a retardicon. I didn't find him very funny, and for a huge budget movie where you wanna see awesome car vs. car action on the screen a lot, this little boombox/cellphone got way too much effing screentime. I could have done without him, really.

Frenzy surprising didn't come off as comedic/obnoxious as I expected.
I thought he was lot of fun & a great homage to Waspinator. He does get pawned a bit but never to the point where it's utter overkill. (Ice Age 2 made this mistake by capitalizing way too much on the prehistoric squirrel character) Frenzy's involvement was great. I saw this twice & Frenzy easily scored the most laughs. I love the bit where his head gets cut off & Sam kick him across the screen. This would have been an absolute WTF in any other movie but in Transformers it just fits without looking forced/too stupid. Same with his head rolling down the wall of the dam.
I personally can't wait to get the replica version of this little guy.

My co-worker, who saw the movie this weekend with her fiance, asked me yesterday, when Frenzy was linked into the POTUS computer, if he was having the robotic equivalient of an . His face and sounds just, according to my co-worker, seemed like it. When I took a moment to think about it, she had a point. And in light of this fact, it's kinda funny.
Frenzy in general was funny. Like a few people have said. He's like a robotic Gremlin, just even more evil. He steals the show with his humour character.
I like it when he cuts his own head in half and seems to say "Oh sh!t!".
Now, I would have liked to seen him thrown by one of the larger characters since that might have been funny. I can so totally see Prime just picking him up by his tiny head and just tossing him 500+ feet.

I think Frenzy lived up to his name. REALLY well! Him fighting Sam was sorta a cool reference to Spike trying to fight Rumble in Episode 1 of G1

I liked him. Really manic.
My fiancee said that he reminded her of another G1 character - KREMZEEK - Except Frenzy was like effective and deadly and stuff.

I liked G-1 Frenzy better, but the movie one was cool.

Loved the guy.. every minute of his stuff was great.. flipping people off, say "Oh Blot" when he knocks part of his head off on accident.. CRAZY CRAZY Robot.. like Waspinator gone postal.

I agree with Galzamus.
Movie Frenzy --> eccentric and crazy, speaks funny, gets torn apart but can move about in pieces and be reassembled = WAZZZZZZZPINATOR!
Gah! I was gonna attach some video, but YouTube seems to be broken right now... *kick kick*

Oddly enough, I thought I heard Ewok and Jawa like vocal refferences in his mad talk-sounds. Doesn't suprise me, it is ILM.

I missed this twice apparently.
When in the movie does Frenzy flip anyone off? All I saw him do was do a quick salute followed by hiding his face as he scurried over to Barricade.
I'd totally be cool with him returning .

For life.

Didn't care for him. Not to sure what was funny about him either. IMO
Couldn't understand how he got his head sliced off with a battery powered Dewalt (product placement) demolishion blade by slashing at him. Unless, of coarse, his heads made of cheese. Now that wood r00l.

Frenzy flipped the people around Air Force One off right after he climbed in Barricade's passenger seat. He was making the comment about "Insects tried to shoot me." He does it very fast and I see how you could miss it.

I loved his character, speed and voice...
His robot looked to "open" and disconnected, though...
But he certainly was a highlight of the Decepticon characters...

His voice got on my nerves a couple times, but loved the flippage, and he raped in most scenes.

Ewokese and Jawaese (aka Jawa Trade Language) are two entirely different languages. :/ Jawaese is primarily based on the Zulu language whereas Ewokese is mostly Mongolian mixed with some Nepalese and Tibetan. A friend of mine who speaks Mongolian actually understands the Ewok dialogue when he watches RotJ.
As for sound, they're not allowed to source Star Wars as it's property of 20th Century Fox, although they were allowed to access anything from Paramount, hence the Star Trek lines from Bumblebee's radio.

I liked movie Frenzy. He was a cool character. My only complaint is that he walked around right in front of humans and was not seen, thus making him the source of a major plothole.

Honestly....I could see that happening IRL and no one noticing. Most people are extremely oblivious to anything other than thier momentary objective.

i could see it happening as well, esp with everybody scurrying to take care of the president.

The more I think about it, the more that Movie Frenzy's personality was like a combination of BW Waspinator and BW Tarantulas.
