Quintessa rules Cybertron and takes control of Optimus Prime on the way to Earth to retrieve her staff. Yeager and his group is recruited by Sir Edmund Burton (Anthony Hopkins) who reveals the secret history of the Transformers and that professor Viviane Wembly is a descendant of Merlin.
So... that happened. It is everything Michael Bay. It has plenty of explosions, slow-motion action, hot babe, and big CGI set pieces. I'm willing to live with all that. It could be mind-numbing popcorn fun. There's nothing wrong with that. There is simply too much with the plot for this type of movie. Then there is the overall Michael Bay directions. His noisy muddled messy style is getting annoying. The historical Transformers leave me scratching my head. It is chaos in action and in story execution.
