Great actionn scenes and special effects. As for the rest of the filmn, it was complete shit. That Megan chick can't act to save her life, and some of the jokes were funny, but most went no where and were just awkward.
Fun to watch while baked, but that was about it. I don't think I'll ever care to see it again.

WHY CAN'T THEY HAVE BOTH?
Theres millions of cute little girlies who, newsflash, CAN ACT.
If the movie's acting had even a touch more class in it, I might have loved the entire film. But every action scene was ruined by some stupid joke or line that went no where.
[monotonous voice on]
"I'm not leaving without bumblebee"[/monotonous voice off]
I mean what the fuck, they're in the middle of robots fighting in downton LA and this chick sounds like she's at the hair salon on a sunday.
"Sam, I need you to help me with something" as optimus prime and megatron are fighting to the death.
She should quit acting and just do porn imo, her skills would fit right in.

I could list hundreds. But I don't feel like going on IMDB just to prove a point.

megan fox wasn't THAT bad, imo the script was eh and everyone in that movie said something corny/dumb at some point. not meant to be a movie full of substance so don't know why people expected it to be, it's about cool ass robots fighting each other. it was entertaining.

Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut.
To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

I didn't expect it, but I wanted it. I'm sorry that I dont like shit acting when the budget is millions of dollars wide. The kid actually had some funny lines, like when he said he was making a book on brain damage in football. His acting was actually very good I thought, but the girl was absolutely piss poor.
As I said, the action scenes were beautifully done though.

Yeah Shia LaBeouf is actually a good actor, I mean I expected more as well but after thinking about it concluded good acting wasn't necessarily the focus of the movie. Personally I don't plan on going to see it again because it's not worth it to me but it was worth seeing overall. I kind of wished there were more scenes with Josh Duhamel, Tyrese and the other guys

Definitely, it was just clear to me that most of it pandered to the lowest common denominator, unfortunatley I am not that person.
Also, some of the product placement reached new depths. At points I felt like I was watching one long car commercial.
