Fiiiine i will do it - Review TF5

[Autocon]

Spoilers ahead.


Very stop start between people talking and the action. The cons get a suicide squad intro then die promptly. Its messy and retconns bee and hot rod fighting nazis in earlier years. Its not the best but beats ROTF. Earth is unicron similar to Tf: Prime. Not much has changed from Bay lol Cybertron latching to earth why didnt this change anything to gravity etc? Im tired of the humans always wanting to kill autobots. Couple of bots show up in the background with no names. Who knows who they are or where they went. There were 4 writers on this script and it shows with a few elements in one movie. The screen ratio changes. Its not too noticable till hopkins talks and it goes very square. Not sure how this will affect imax viewing.

Pos:
Good cgi set pieces and bots look good.
Baby dinos are cute.

Cons:
Cons die so quickly.
Cogman doesnt do headmaster effect.
Plot iffy
Could have used terrorcons n knights better with a big battle.
Some scene from the trailer not in movie
Austin martin, maclaren, and electric car are not transformers.
....

Stuff
How will they kill unicron?
Quintessa is a prime?
Quintessa as a pretenderbot like alice. Created the cybertrons. Who are the quintesons in this reality?

Won't be seeing it. Maybe ever. Life is too short to be spent watching bad movies.

Took the kids to watch it this afternoon, pretty much the same as all the others. In terms of how it compares with all the others, I would rank it above revenge of the fallen and age of extinction, and below the original and dark of the moon. Again, just like all the others, it is it's own individual pop song, still no sign of a rock opera. If you can leave your brain at the door and enjoy the pretty lights, whilst forgetting most of what came before it, you will be entertained, it is, like all the others, an action packed popcorn movie. Good effects, cool action sequences, and heaps of explosions.
