Transformers: The Last Knight | 6/21/2017 | Big Budget, Weak OW?

[McNerdy]

I agree that the first TF is easily the best, but IMO TF4 benefited from adding Mark Wahlberg. He really fits well in this franchise IMO.

Agreed, I enjoyed TF4 for the type of movie it was and a part of it was replacing Shia with Mark for me.

I didn't necessarily "enjoy" it, but it was watchable.

Put in Rock.

 

Or Vin Diesel. 

[SchumacherFTW]

After how diabolical the fourth one is, it would take a miracle to get back in a cinema seat for another one of these. And this is from someone that loves the first 3!

Sarcasm?

[Lordmandeep]

He should come back for 3.

 

Not sure if I watch this in theaters but 1000% at home. 

 

 

TF movies are good background noise as you chill.

Transformers is the type of movie that you need to watch in cinema, It's not the same thing at home.

[Lordmandeep]

yeah but even at home they are fine.

[Mockingjay Raphael]

Nobody wants Duhamel back?

[Ethan Hunt]

Nobody wants Duhamel back?

Oh, I do. I do for sure. Bring back the whole crew from the first one including Rachel Taylor and Anthony Anderson

[RaidensSword]

Sarcasm?

No I genuinely think he deserved a chance to lead the franchise after Shia left. He's done a great job as part of ensembles, now I would have liked to see Bay put him front and center.

Maybe with him and Duhamel both together as the leads

I appreciated the fact that TF4 decided to throw subtlety out the window completely, be it in plot or in product placement.

TF4 is easily the most intelligent answer from a director to critics in the history of cinema.

Thus, it's impossible not to interpret AGE OF EXTINCTION as two brilliant deconstructionists jam-banding on an action movie specifically designed to burn the house down. This is Kruger and Bay as Bialystock and Bloom, dropping "Springtime for Hitler" on an unsuspecting crowd like it's an atom bomb. And appropriately, the soundtrack of the damned can only be provided by Imagine Dragons.

With the fourth Transformers, Michael Bay finally accomplishes what the three previous films tried so hard to do - turn the Transformers into bad guys, the enemies of all mankind. The first film is idealistic and Spielberg-like for the first hour. It's the story of a teenage boy advancing into manhood by pursuing the desirable girl. It's a story as old as time and one gets the sense that were there no killer robots, Sam might win Mikaela's heart easily. But then the killer robots smash into Sam's narrative and from then on, the simple joys of independence from one's parents and pleasures of the flesh are cast aside.
