Just got back myself. It wasn't a great film, but it was fine enough. Better than 2, not as a good as 3, probably equal to 1. Maybe a little worse.

Michael Bay does need a serious editor though. And I always wonder, because Ehren Kruger isn't THAT bad, how much Bay changes the script while filming. He must do it a bunch.

And Bay still has a knack for shot composition that rivals most "great" film directors, believe it or not. Some of the scenes in Texas were just superbly shot. The confines of China never allowed for much, but I can't believe that a young director out there with a better need for story can't learn something from him.

Yeah he has a great cinematographer, but the guy/gal will never get their credit because of the elitists in Hollywood.

The Dinobots were awesome though. He did a great job with them. I do like the scale of his robots, how big and powerful they are.
