Pretty Good

Please don't spend money on this.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Alright, alright, this is not the best movie ever made, but it's way better than some people give it credit for. But genre-wise it's a weird movie. There's action, drama, sci-fi, an occasional bit of comedy and a truckload of product placement, notice all the supercars. Of course it's supercars and not regular everyday cars, which in my opinion would make much more sense. Also keep an eye out for the 2001 Cadillac Cien concept car, it makes a very brief appearance. It still looks brand new, though it were 13 years old at the time.I don't know if you'll like this movie or not, I guess it depends on what you compare it with.But if you have two and 2 hours and 45 minutes then you could watch this movie. Just be prepared for a lot of GCI.

I have seen all of the Transformers film and this has to be one of the lowest in the franchise. The addition of Mark Wahlberg to boost star power was a nice touch but certainly did not save the film. His character is an inventor, witty, comical, hell bent on protecting his daughter. TJ Miller was a nice nugget until he bowed out so early in the film. It was a nice caveat that we saw Kelsey Grammer as the antagonist in the film as a defiant and power hungry CIA director. The continuity of the film kept with the franchise story but most of the autoboots are gone. Special effects as always drove the film to a higher rating. I wasn't in complete disappointment but as far as the franchise goes this laid an egg. There is action and some well thought out dialogue, firey scenes with the bots. Afternoon filler.

This is the first Transformers film i really didn't like. It is really long and confusing.I give Transformers: Age of Extinction a 3/10
