- There were some cool actions scenes, and some of the robots did look cool.
Bad:
- It had all the Michael bay trademarks: product placement, loud flashy scenes, shots of the pentagon, air fore one and high ranking personell, lots of deaths yet no blood, etc. Certain scenes felt like they were rehashed from other Michael Bay films. Armageddon style metorites, shia and the girl on the street like the island, shia and the girl on the car at the end like armageddon.
- I will say this about the product placement, it was no where near as bad as the island, but still, did we need a mountain dew and xbox360 robot?
- This movie was a shakey cam NIGHTMARE. It was almost impossible to keep track of the action because all the shots were zoomed in really close and shaking like crazy or panning left and right really fast. Which is a shame because I think some of the action towards the end would have looked amazing if it was actually shot competently.
- John Turturro was garbage.
- Most of the comedy fell flat, I basically laughed at all the unintentional shittiness.
- It was way too long, this thing should have been 88 minutes long.
- Most of the human subplots should have been removed, especially that shit with the female signal expert or whatever she was supposed to be.
