ORIGINAL: NRJ1995 If I'm completely honest, I hear people almost on a daily basis bitching about Michael Bay's transformers films and how they are "justa ll about the explosions" and that he's a crappy director. Okay maybe there are a hell of a lot of explosions, but what do people hoenstly expect when it comes to intergalactic robots battleing it out? flower bombs? And as for people saying he's a sucky director, I think it's a little bit TOO critical. He's good at whathe does and should keep going at. They may not be the best films I've ever seen, but I still think they are pretty damn good in comparison to some other action film. Thing is, I don't think anyone goes into a Transformers film expecting something which comments on the nature of the Universe and the meaning of a life ala Terrence Malick, and nor should they. But that isn't a get out of jail free card for Bay and his shoddy film-making and frankly horrendous sexism. It is possible for Transformers to be good and fun, but Bay is such a cack-handed director and has proven time and time again that he has no intention of delivering a half-way decent film. The man is a hopeless, drooling infant.
