Transformers: Age of Extinction - Probably the best Transformers film
ever made till date. Yes, I have to say that the screenplay was weak.
Still the storyline were not strong enough as mentioned by top film
critics, being too lengthy with unnecessary conversations which could
have been avoided. So, at certain parts you might feel bored and draggy. Despite being lengthy, the action sequence has overtaken
the script.
Mark Wahlberg was a great substitute for Shia LaBeouf. His
acting skills in terms of body language, expressions, stunts and sense
of humor were simply perfect. If he would have been cast for the previous sequels, it would have been far greater.
The rest of the cast played their roles very well. Next, the CGI and visual effects was absolutely amazing, spectacular
and mind blowing. The epic action sequence was shot in an amazing way as
it makes you to forget of the screenplay but makes you to enjoy the
action scenes to the max. Plus, using Dinobots in this film was absolutely a brilliant idea.
I've
read a lot of reviews from top critics saying that they hated this film
because the storyline is too weak and it ain't
worth watching this film, but honestly, you're not paying to see a
Transformers movie for the screenplay or the drama. You're paying to
watch the CGI and visual effects on how much better they could possibly improve
compared to the previous Transformers films. So, "Age of Extinction"
does not disappoint you in this area.
Steve Jablonsky, was another major
strength of this film. His background score was simply rocking and synced well with the scenes.
Finally, director Michael Bay, once again you have made it but I hope
you would focus and improve the screenplay to make your film more concrete.
As a conclusion, Transformers: Age of Extinction is full of boom boom and boom!
