Bay has destroyed action films
The main thing I hate about Michael Bay is that although he's supposed to be an action director he can't fucking direct action. In a good action film even if you don't care about the characters you can still enjoy the careful choreography and visual storytelling. In, say, Raiders of

Schoolhouse Reck: Don't make me break your arm and throw you through a window.
