Review of Transformers: The Last Knight (2017) by Creeper3455 — 22 Jun 2017
With Paramount trying SO HARD to have a good year with movies that looked dumb (with the exception of GitS), we were destined to have another (probably cash-grabby) Transformers movie after the whole nonsensical boredom that was Age Of Extinction.
And yes,this is what you'd expect from another Transformers movie: an awesome production that falls into this lazy story that cares more on the action than setting up the story. As I mentioned,the production is awesome.
The visual effects were well-made,but the sound effects were kind of decent,since at some point I was starting to have a headache. One thing that was certainly annoying was the change of Aspect Ratio,because,like every poster (and the trailers) said,it's filmed with IMAX 3D cameras,and I thought the aspect would change during an action scene (and it does),not that it would change every single second.
The acting was okay,but some things were unnecessary,like those initial 10 minutes of exposition from Anthony Hopkins. The story may be dumb,but the 3rd act,with all those magnificent action scenes,was fun.
In the end,last times may be perfect (this is M.Bay's last Transformers movie),but this one certainly does not. An 'A+' cast,the 3rd act and the awesome visual effects are not enough to save Transformers The Last Knight from being a GIANT mess.
Still better than Revenge Of The Fallen and Age Of Extinction,though.
