Review: There’s a lot of vacant space at the top of the design. The rest is a hodge podge of characters who don’t have a lot of impact on the design.

Trailer Rating: B- / C+

Review: (#1) Another exploding Michael Bay film throws itself at the big screen with all the pomp and circumstance possible with an excess of explosions and action violence. The problem is the plot is loosely defined and the players seem like they feel trapped in the material.

(#2) If you didn’t know it was a Michael Bay film before, you certainly will now in another trailer that focuses on explosions and actions rather than a story you can root on. It now looks even more like a prototypical Bay film was pointless sex and pasty-white complexions. It even features a now-standard, unnecessary parkour expert character.

Oscar Prospects:

A Michael Bay film can be counted on fighting for Sound Mixing, Sound Editing, and Visual Effects nominations, but I doubt it will make it that far as many of his films have failed to do so in recent years.
