Don’t know how much of what you said was or wasn’t accurate, but I do agree that (for me at least) this movie didn’t live up to expectations. I really liked all of the other installments, liked them a lot, but stopped watching this one after about an hour in. Really had a hard time keeping my attention for some reason, and it seemed like something was missing that was in all the other movies. Can’t really put my finger on it, but just couldn’t get into this one…

I really tried to like this, I really did, but at the hour mark I realized that there was just no point in me going any further. While there were spots I liked, overall there was just something, for me at least, that was just lacking that the other Transformer movies all seemed to have that this one just didn’t.

Could be just a matter of perception on my part, or the mood I was in at the time, as a lot of other people seemed to like it just fine, but I did read a review online by a critic that got to see a pre screening and he pretty much said the same thing. Didn’t say that it was a bad movie, just that he felt it was lacking something, and he was a big fan of the Autobots and Beastwars when he was a kid.

Guess I’m not alone in that, but hope it does well in the box office for the people that worked on it, so they get well compensated for the work they put in it.
