Had a look at io9's review of Transformers 4.

"....Even the movie's big fist-pumping triumphant sequences feel grudging, like "here you go, whatever. You can pump your fist if you want, I guess. I don't care." The movie manages to make dinobots feel sad and pathetic. DINOBOTS. Why is this film so glum? Because it's actually trying to capture the feeling of spending several weeks trapped in a car (or truck) with your father, watching his midlife crisis curdle into despair. Lars von Trier only wishes he could make a movie as bleak and existentially discomfiting as this one."

....

I'm just gonna leave that right there.

... wow.

I mean, I wasn't planning on seeing it anyway (and it's saying something that Michael Bay has actively made me not want to bother seeing a live-action Grimlock), but ... wow. That's ... not just cold, that's, like, the liquid helium is climbing over the walls of the beaker due to losing all viscosity.

They aren't the only ones who are unenthused.

"Take your head, wrap it in the American flag and smash it into a mailbox for 15 minutes. Now you're ready for Transformers: Age of Extinction, says CBC film reviewer Eli Glasner."

...Thanks CBC. I'll just sleep or something. Sleep's good too.
