Critics Consensus

With the fourth installment in Michael Bay's blockbuster Transformers franchise, nothing is in disguise: Fans of loud, effects-driven action will find satisfaction, and all others need not apply.

Since the film is a chilling two hours and 45 minutes long, that means one's mind quickly wanders, dancing across this film's many flaws, little and big.

The few authentic inspirations to be found in the movie's hundred and sixty-five roiling minutes involve gigantic science-fiction contrivances.

It goes to show what a little focus and restraint (and I do emphasize “a little”) can do.

1/4

Bay’s garbled action, Kruger’s scattershot writing, dull humans, underdeveloped robots—these are the same issues that have plagued Transformers movies since the start.

Transformers: Age of Extinction is often unfairly dismissed, but it delivers exactly what a Transformers blockbuster promises: massive spectacle, explosive action, and visually stunning Autobots brought to life through impressive CGI. While the storyline isn’t flawless, it’s strong enough to anchor the chaos and keep the momentum moving. Mark Wahlberg brings a grounded energy to the human side of the film, helping balance the overwhelming scale of the robot battles. What truly stands out is the visual craftsmanship, as the Transformers themselves feel detailed, powerful, and cinematic in every frame. Many critics compare these films too closely to the original cartoons instead of appreciating them as modern reinventions. This chapter may not be perfect, but it’s loud, entertaining, and unapologetically fun, offering a thrilling ride for fans willing to enjoy it for what it is rather than what it isn’t.

I understand why this movie has such a low rating, but I still had a lot of fun watching it. This movie felt like the start of a completely different Transformers saga rather than a continuation of the first three films, and Shia LaBeouf's absence was a big part of it. Despite this movie's flaws, I still think its amazing. The visuals were awesome, the story was compelling, and the action was incredibly satisfying to watch. I definitely recommend it for action, sci-fi, and combat fans, and for fans of the Transformers franchise!
