Transformers: Age of extinction has a pretty shallow plot and paper thin characters but on the plus side it has absolutely insane stunt work and special effects.
It looks incredible and the amount of work to set up even a quick 5 second shot in some of the action scenes must have been crazy. Mark Whalberg was a fine choice as the new lead and although TJ Miller's character is very annoying he gets incinerated about 20 minutes in to the movie so it's all ok.
The movie never tries to be anything more than it needs to be, it's a movie about giant alien robots punching each other in the face so people leaving bad reviews because it wasn't deep or thought provoking need to stop taking themselves so seriously. I love a good character driven movie like There will be blood but sometimes all i want to see is crap explode and Transformers: Age of extinction makes crap explode real good.
