I figured as much as what everyone is saying.
Come on, people. It's Michael Bay. The man is a TERRIBLE artist, but he's a great action director. He is the epitome of "popcorn flick". Michael Bay = formula.
That said, I'll probably see it. His stuff is better on the big screen than it is on video. But I won't expect more than a two-hour waste of time to the cinema. I don't expect to discuss the social significance of TRANSFORMERS on the drive home, much like I don't ever bring up Bad Boys and The Rock when I discuss the artistic greats of our time.
