Transformers: The Last Knight's reviews
Media reviews
The Telegraph
If you?re not staggered by the technique on display here ? the stuff that sets Bay?s work miles above the Fast & Furiouses, X-Men: Apocalypses and Tom Cruise-chasing Mummies of this world ? you?re not paying attention.
Variety
For the first time, the messy hyperactive form and nihilistic crunched-metal content seem to reinforce each other.
Entertainment Weekly
Monster metal, mass destruction, Anthony Hopkins saying ?dude.? This is your brain on Michael Bay?a cortex scramble so amped on pyro and noise and brawling cyborgs it can only process what?s happening on screen in onomatopoeia: Clang! Pew-pew! Kablooey!
This film?s sense of action geography and tactics is atrocious.
The New Yorker
The absolute tastelessness of Bay?s images, their stultifying service to platitudes and to merchandise, doesn?t at all diminish their wildly imaginative power.
