Age Of Extinction more than delivers on whatever promises Bay makes to an audience at this point. Giant robots. Giant mayhem. Destruction on a global scale. You know what you're in for if you buy a ticket, and Bay seems determined to wear you down with the biggest craziest Transformers movie yet. - 63

Confounding. But not without its thrills. - 50
Variety
It’s the robots — endowed here with character-rich physicality and almost human-scaled facial features — who give the film its emotional heft. - 50

Age of Extinction runs on and on, popcorn piffle without end. - 38
New York Post
You get the feeling the guy who wrote Transformers: Age of Extinction used the entire script as a passive-aggressive running joke on his boss, director Michael Bay. - 38
Chicago Sun-Times
Age of Extinction is just another warmed-over, cynical, ATM machine of a movie. It’s soulless eye candy. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Belying its ominous title, Age of Extinction barely skirts the idea that humankind and planet Earth are about to be totally annihilated. What is extinguished is the audience's consciousness after being bombarded for nearly three hours with overwrought emotions...bad one-liners and battles that rarely rise above the banal. - 30
TheWrap
The battling, metallic heroes have never looked better, but Michael Bay's choppy, dissonant storytelling methods remain as audience-punishing as ever.
