This review is probably going to be laughed at, but I don't care.
I love all the transformers movies, just because they're entertaining. I know they're not critically acclaimed for the acting or the heart-wrenching story like say a Terms of Endearment, but they're not supposed to be. They're action, they're visually spectacular, and very fun! It's escapism at it's best. Watching these movies with a nice surround system is a must. The explosions, the sounds of the transforming, all of it is a much better experience with surround and a good subwoofer! I can do without 2 things in the movies...the eye candy that is the chicks in short shorts! To me, it just doesn't add to the movie. I guess because I'm not a adolescent teenage boy. Secondly, is the language. it seems like all sequels, things are pushed further each time another one is made. There was more profanity in this one than the others. It too doesn't add to the movie. My 4 year old son loves Transformers, too and I don't want him picking up the language. I know one day he will be exposed to it, but c'mon! These movies are enjoyed by all age groups, Michael Bay, please tone down those 2 things and all will be well. Mark Wahlberg did a good job in the movie... I like his movies anyway. I didn't miss Shia LaBeouf or any of the other actors from the previous ones. Also, this one had more work done on the video side. The greens were way greener. My wife noticed that almost everyone had colored eyes, and over exaggerated at that. I didn't mind all that, but it did seem a little weird. I loved the robots! All of them were too cool...Lockdown is a bad dude! His walk, his whole demeanor...I found myself liking him. Those Dinobots were massive! I can't wait to watch it again...and for the next one, which is probably already in the works.

Good Action
Warning: SpoilersWhat I enjoyed about this movie is the action sequences. They have been exciting and fun to watch in all of the movies. It's giant robots fighting in HD, so it's hard to go wrong there.However, there are several things that could be improved upon. The first is what spoiled the movie for me the most, which is the unoriginal story. Why does there always have to be a damsel in distress in every transformers movie? Why is she constantly getting rescued, only to play a pivotal role in the very end where the good guys wouldn't win if she wasn't there? All four movies have been the same in this regard, there's a hot girl that likes the nerd, she is getting in trouble a lot but she has this independent attitude where she's going to do what she wants, and in the end she has a eureka moment that ends up saving the Earth. I'm tired of seeing this four times in a row now.Furthermore, I'm not very excited to see a cheesy, stereotypical love story in a movie about giant robots. Almost every romance in a movie has the same nuances (e.g., James Bond), and I'm tired of it. I'm sure the majority of the people that watch these movies get some subtle enjoyment out of watching the good guy get the girl, but I don't. I paid to watch giant robots fight each other, not to see a melodramatic romantic comedy embedded in every scene. I'm guessing that there has been a new female actress in every movie because they ask for twice as much as what they got last time, and they don't care so they just hire someone else.Third, while watching the Transformers movies I have always sat there wondering why they bother giving humans leading roles. Transformers should be about the transformers, they should be the main characters. They try so hard to give the humans any level of significance that it ends up being annoying. Having Marky Mark fend off Lockdown at the end with a sword-that-is-also-a-gun really made me want to stop watching. Lockdown goes around the Universe for centuries capturing the most wanted transformers, he nearly kills Optimus multiple times, and this human is actually winning a fight with him. Give me a break, I don't believe it. They did this in the other 3 movies too, somehow the main character is able to fight off transformers while everyone else is getting picked off left and right (except for the main character's friends, they are impossible to kill too).Fourth, they really seem to have stopped trying in some of the action sequences. In the scene where the ship they were flying in was shot down, it smashes into the Earth into a giant fireball and tumbles into multiple buildings, and at the end of it all the humans step out of the open cockpit just fine. How were they not killed in the collision? Or the giant fireball? And why were they not thrown from the open cockpit? It's like they said who cares, let's have a big crash scene right here.Fifth, I was really bothered by the blatant advertising throughout the movie. In one scene they crash into a Bud Light truck, and all of the bottles fly all over the ground. No bottles are smashed or anything, they must have not cared enough to make this part realistic. They end up panning over the bud light bottles for what feels like 5 seconds. For 5 seconds in this movie I'm staring at Bud Light bottles, and they thought this wouldn't be noticeable? Maybe they were forced to add it and they made the scene really crappy on purpose to spite their bosses? And at the end of the scene the hero pops one open and drinks it casually before throwing it on the ground. I wonder how much they paid for that scene. There also seems to be some Asian milk product in a juice box being advertised. I recognize it from the third movie--the milk the guy that gets pushed through a window was drinking. Well, they take 5 more seconds to show the inventor casually sitting in a chair drinking from the same juice box, literally nothing else is happening in the scene. They must be paying a lot for that cameo.My dream is to have a Transformers movie where there are no humans involved, at least not in anything more than a supporting role. I want to see transformers, I don't want to see terrible acting ruining every movie. I want to learn about the background of the transformers, I don't want a new story conjured up about the humans that is explained in depth in every single movie. Skip the boring first hour of the movie where they introduce the humans and replace it with us learning about the transformers. They just introduce these new transformers in every movie and we don't even learn their names! Why can't their personalities be explored? Why can't we get to know them on the same level as the human main characters? It is a missed opportunity. And if they do make the transformers the main characters, _please_ don't add in a transformer damsel and a love story to go along with it.So I give it 3/5, and I hope they try harder next time.
