Sometimes things that are beautifully made, well-thought, and perfectly acted are simply not entertaining, at all.

Yes, there were ample flaws in this movie. Yet, there were ample flaws in Star Trek, he disliked that too (most critics ignored the gaping ST plot holes), but it also was well-received by moviegoers.

Are the Transformers movies going to stand toe-to-toe with the Godfather Saga, Gone with the Wind, Titanic, Schinder's List, etc. No. But I don't think it ever wanted to.

I think Transformers was designed to be an overwhelming feast of the senses, and there's definitely a huge market for that. I don't think the CGI action fests are going the way of the western by any means.

Exactly. I just saw the movie and loved it. To be honest, I thought "Dark Knight" was too long and boring.

Thank you Mr.Bay...Can't wait for Transformers III.

Is it wrong to think Arcee is hot!?!
