Firstly, I totally disagree with those who say the acting was bad. They delivered pretty much spot on what was asked of them, which, unfortunately, was a pile of crap. Don't blame the actors for a bad script and bad directing. I actually liked the actors a lot, but felt sorry for them in many scenes for the dialogue they had to deliver.
Transformer movies, with the exception of Bumblebee, have never been anything to use in the same sentence with words like "smart" or "intelligent", but they were entertaining nonetheless. But THIS one here takes the cake in just plain stupidity. Not suspension of disbelief, just plain stupidity. The couple of minutes of "story" between (world-class) CGI orgies make the last two Fast and Furious movies seem like sophisticated pieces of deep philosophy and the holes in the plot are so huge, you could drive a dozen Optimus Primes through them.
This is for you if: you are equal parts die hard Transformers fan and veteran plot hole masochist and as long as it features Transformers made with good CGI you don't need anything else.
This is not for you if: you expect anything, and I mean ANYTHING at all, but great CGI.
I gave one star for the actors, which I liked, two stars for the really awesome CGI and one star because "Transformers". If you are not generally a Transformers fan, subtract one star.
