Written by Art Marcum and Matt Holloway and directed by Michael Bay. This film covers a war between Humans and Transformers, Optimus is gone and the key to saving the future is buried in the past.<\/p>\n<p>This outing sees the return of Mark Whalberg as Cade and includes many new characters and lots of new transformers. At two and a half hours its a long one but its full of allsorts and is a typical Bay film.<\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed it although it was a little bit of a slow buildup. There was also parts that just looked a bit strange, when some of the Decepticons were introduced there was flashy text on the screen which just looked childish to me. I honestly think if they made it more darker and less child like these films would be so much better.<\/p>\n<p>Seems strange when you go from film to film and there are suddenly new plot devices buried on our planet and nothing has been seen up until now&#8230;.. Like Megatron who was trying in Fallen to destroy the planet with a massive energy collecting machine, all the while Unicron is sat under the crust chilling&#8230;&#8230; when Cybertron was being pulled through the portal where was Quintessa&#8230;. must have been off having a cuppa!<\/p>\n<p>Despite all that its a really good film and worth a watch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night was the release of Transformers the Last Knight.
