I'm just surprised at how much better TF4 did in the box office than 'Edge of Tomorrow' has to date which in contrast has nothing but stellar reviews
I guess from a brainless entertainment point of view, TF4 is better

Saw it, found this movie to be very annoying.

Very bland characters and development and all this explosions and metal flying around is tiring.

Nothing after or mid credits. Which is weird cause in all the other Transformer movies Bay did put something there. I'm assuming because he has said this was his last Transformers movie. It also would sway the next movie in the director of the after credits scene which wouldn't be fair for the new director.

I can't explain how bad this movie is.

What I CAN say though is that because of the Chinese investment this movie is ruined. For example, the HK scenes are terrible i.e. simplified Chinese billboards, a MONORAIL in Downtown Hong Kong. Also, when the guy was drinking a redbull in the states, Texas presumably, it had Simplified Chinese on it.

All I got to say is that Michael Bay went full retard on this installment, both on the story and the effects.

Didn't like the "made up" autobots, wish they would stick to characters that existed in the cartoon world of Transformers.

Finally got around to watching this movie. Honestly, I can't say much other than that it was an overly long (by 1.5 hours), typical Michael Bay production. Lots of explosions, lots of girls in tight clothes and not much more.

One positive thing I'll say is that Mark Wahlberg is a much, much better actor than Shia Lebeuf. Kelsey Grammer and Stanley Tucci were both surprisingly decent choices as well. Not that it did much, but these three added at least a tiny bit of legitimate acting into the movie.

But my god... that was an insanely long movie, which could easily have been cut down to under two hours in the editing room. And, yet, there was hardly any Grimlock et al in the final cut. But I suppose Lockdown made up for it.

Not going to rate it as it was just that terrible. I suppose it's a good mindless action flick but even as one it overextended it's stay by far too long. At some point I'd like to see Michael Bay get back to the movie style he used to make back in the 90's - while they're still mindless action movies, at least ones like The Rock and Bad Boys 1 & 2 had some legitimate character development and not as out of this world action scenes.

I'd like to point out I went to the movie with three kids who are huge modern Transformers fans and even they were all going "WTF" at this movie. Pretty sure this one managed to alienate them from the series...


Side note: Transformers 4 is more Fast and Furious than Furious 6 was...
