First off...It's A Michael Bay Movie!!

This is how you watch a Mike B movie: 1. Be in the mood for insane action. 2. Make popcorn 3. Settle into overstuffed movie-watching-chair 4. Don't overthink it 5. Enjoy the ride

This movie was everything I expected it to be and a little bit more (thank you Ryan). You've probably read the other reviews and have most likely have seen other MB movies, so the reviews shouldn't surprise you. They are all over the place, much like Micheal's edits and plot points.

Adjust your criteria based on that, you have a solid 7. If you judge this movie based in the same criteria you would use to rate the cinematic milestones throughout movie history, it's not even a 1.

I had a great time. Laughed my ass off and let loose with a few "holy s***s". Every thing I was in the mood for when I plopped my ass down on with a beer in one hand and the remote in the other. Yeah, I rewinded a few scenes. Where MB may miss critical plot details, he makes up for it in visuals. Take this movie for what it was meant to be and have a good time.
