Yeah, watched this on Saturday night because I was getting frustrated playing COD, just getting my butt handed to me left right and center. A few times from behind as well.
Wasn't bad, wasn't as funny as I was hoping either, but there were some good parts for sure! |

Watched it & was disappointed. Seemed like it was clapped together just trying to make a buck.

It’s a great movie for Michael Bay fans. If you’re down for explosions, hot women, car chases and gun battles - all captured by frenetic/gratuitous focus on T&A camera work...well, you’ll enjoy this one a lot. Critics are less forgiving of things like empty plots, which is why i think they killed it on rotten tomatoes.
Ryan Reynolds, as usual, plays himself - which is usually fun but in this movie he has a lot less wisecracks. I thought the scene with the magnets on the boat was the one original thing they came up with. My only small complaint (setting aside all the stock complaints about Michael Bay films, of course) was that the product placement was contrived and pretty distracting. |

I thought it was pretty good and not deserving of the low rotten tomatoes rating. It is an action movie, what do the critics expect? The car chase scene in the beginning was amazing.

I watched it sunday. It did have some cool scenes but the story was pretty lacking IMO. kinda of overdone. 6/10 for me

She's Puerto Rican and Guatemalan. Talk about a spicy meatball.

My wife and I started watching it on the weekend, she fell asleep about half way through. She wasn't enjoying it and I'll be honest I found it a bit disjointed. Anyway, I finished it up yesterday and the I found the last 40 minutes or so better. I'll echo some of the earlier comments, it wasn't as funny as I was hoping for and the story was a bit weak but I guess it was what one would expect from a Michael Bay film. Maybe the sequel will be better.
