Earlier this week, new images from Transformers: Age of Extinction were released to build hype up for a new trailer. Alas, the time has come for new robot-on-robot action to enter our eyes. It’s more of the same from Michael Bay, chock full of little Transformer chunks getting punched off, explosions in the background, cars flipping over in the air, and an attempt at humanizing the human characters more than they need. However, this time around, we have Mark Wahlberg to deal, a significant upgrade from Shia LaBeouf whom could actually hold his own against any type of threat.
This time around, the threat facing the Autobots aren’t just the Decepticons, but the US Government hunting them down, presumedly in the names of “science” and “technology.” Much like the first trailer for the film, this one ends with Optimus Prime riding Grimlock, a robot dinosaur. Come on… there are robot dinosaurs; how can Transfomers: Age of Extinction not be the greatest Transformers film? Hopefully, Bay heeded all of the criticism from the previous films and kept the focus airtight on the Transformers themselves. Then again, I wouldn’t mind seeing Wahlberg punch a Decepticon in the face or something super machismo like that.
Transformers: Age of Extinction will be transforming theaters on June 27th.
