Critics often think Michael Bay doesn't give a damn about characters, but how can you believe that when everything in the film is shut deliberately to be from a perspective of a character? Michael Bay is
Lars Von Trier of action. Lars uses strange chaotic camera work and weird editing choices to elevate the emotion on screen and Michael Bay uses chaotic camera work and weird editing choices to elevate the emotions too. If you take him seriously everything clicks into place. It's just Michael Bay likes it louder.

The first thing you notice when watching
Michael Bay's directorial debut
Bad Boys is that the movie is not trying to be a Michael Bay film. There was no Michael Bay films prior to it. Bay was doing music videos and commercials before this film. And while those do have some of the style Bay will eventually bring over to his cinema pictures, here it seems he is actually trying something else entirely. The best analogy for the movie would be
Tony Scott's 1993 film
True Romance written by
Quentin Tarantino.

Producer
Jerry Bruckheimer didn't only work with the legendary
Michael Bay. He worked with other legends too, like
Tony Scott and in the case of
Con Air Simon West who directed the
Rick Astley music video
Never Gonna Give You Up. Yet probably due to it being the first collaboration of Bruckheimer and West ( because it is West's directorial debut when it comes to feature films ), Bruckheimer steered him a bit to copy a style of another director he worked with. Michael Bay.

In my review of
Babylon I claimed that it was 1941 of
Damien Chazelle. But there is one filmmaker that makes 1941s all the time. And his name is
Michael Bay.
Peter Berg's Battleship 2012 is a strange mix of stupidity and amazingness

After
Michael Bay made a hit out of
Transformers,
Hasbro ( who made the toys,
Transformers were based on ) decided that it would be a good idea to make more, similar films, based on other
Hasbro toys. So they chose to adopt, fucking
Battleship. Really?

In my review of
Bad Boys II I talked about how Michael Bay needed to discharge from
Pearl Harbor and do a properly Bayhem! movie. This speculation of mine is largely based on some stories from the set of this movie, where it looked like Bay tried to actually make a properly directed film in the very beginning and then suddenly snapped and started setting up Bayhem! shots out of nowhere in the middle of production. And when people pointed that out to him he told them to "Shut the fuck up" and that he "knows what he is doing".

Before
Jerry Bruckheimer was obsessed with telling all his directors to be like
Michael Bay and before
Don Simpson had passed away. The duo of Simpson and Bruckheimer were obsessed with
Tony Scott, the director of such classics as
Top Gun,
Days of Thunder and
Enemy of the State ( which coincidentally were all produced by Jerry and Don, apart from the last film, which was produced after Don's passing ). But Tony Scott didn't only work with the duo. For example in 1993 he made a film not produced by Jerry and Don called
True Romance from a screenplay of
Quentin Tarantino. Which makes
Crimson Tide the second collaboration of the two

What is it with
Jerry Bruckheimer of the late 90s and early 2000s and with
Nicolas Cage? First in 96 we get
Michael Bay's
The Rock. A year later in 97 Jerry puts Cage in
Simon West's
Con Air. And then in 2000
Dominic Sena under the supervision of Bruckheimer puts Nicolas out of his Cage and into a driver's seat of 1967 Ford Shelby GT500, in the subject of this review, the loose remake of
H. B. Halicki 1974 film
Gone in 60 Seconds.

Transformers 3 has only 1 flaw

Megan Fox. Megan Fox is the only flaw of
Michael Bay's
Transformers: Dark of the Moon. The script by
Ehren Kruger ( who wrote
Top Gun: Maverick and
F1 ) was written with Mikaela Banes ( Megan Fox ) as the girlfriend of
Shia LaBeouf's character Sam. But because of some drama behind the scenes ( which involved
Steven Spielberg for some reason ), she ultimately dropped out of the project, in very late stages of pre-production. Forcing the team to quickly patch her character out in a very forced and obvious way, replacing her with
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley who worked with Bay on Victoria Secret commercials. That ultimately made the film very confusing, emotionally.

I decided to re-watch the first
Transformers film today, but differently. Instead of indulging in it as mindless entertainment, I decided I want to actually view it seriously, as I would with somebody like
Steven Spielberg, who, by the way, was an executive producer on the film.

It is infamous at this point that the production of the
Michael Bay quickly assembled into something from which a good script could be written. This movie started production without a script, only a rough idea of the story, which is not a bad rough idea. But all of the little details were not there at all by the time of production, leaving Bay pretty much at the helm of coming up with stuff on the spot.

I love
Isabela Merced. Ever since I saw her being this absolutely amazing girl in
Michael Bay's
Transformers 5 where there isn't enough of her either, I was a fan. I even genuinely tried to like
Madame Web because of her part in it. And so it was rather disappointing to see how little screen-time she has in the new 2025
James Gunn film
Superman. In case you didn't understand the title, she plays Hawkgirl.

The movie is nothing like I've seen. It's a masterpiece of cinema. The so called
critics are critical of it, citing similarities to
James Cameron Titanic. They're right, but it is a dead serious film and by no one other than by
Michael Bay. For the director, it a grueling experience to conduct. It's a good watch, it'll make you
cry your eyes out.

1941 ( a 1979
Steven Spielberg action comedy film ) seems like a parody of
Michael Bay. The film's credits literally have explosions happen all throughout, under the scrolling text. There is so much colorful destruction, so much over the top action scenes, so much loud over-bombardment, that I believe this is the Ultimate Steven Spielberg film.
