MOVIE REVIEW

If there is no sacrifice,

No victory can be.

Small Plot Leaks:

Two sides; one flesh, one metal. One WAR. Optimus Prime has left us. He cannot keep the peace.

One billion trillion planets in the cosmos…WHY DO THEY KEEP COMING HERE?

Some say without sacrifice, there can be no victory. But how many more must we sacrifice? Our planet is DYING, be it because of Galvatron or Bumblebee, Autobot or Decepticon. They are all Transformers.

The Transformers must GO.

What is wrong with Optimus Prime? Why does he destroy his fellows? WHERE IS OPTIMUS PRIME?

Overall Rating

I rate this movie as a 2/10. The plot is terrible, jokes are where they don’t need to be, and there is a severe lack of character development. Everything feels rushed, considering that this is a TWO AND A HALF-HOUR MOVIE. Despite this, Michael Bay did so much right in this. The animation was simply spectacular, and that is what saved it from a 1/10. Action scenes are done beautifully, and Michael Bay actually rose quite a bit of hype about this, despite the past four being despised among Transformers fans.

At the very least, TLK looked amazing, even if it really wasn't.
