watch the original 1980s Movie with Unicron in it it was much better than this.
things I can think off that were bad/annoying about this movie
-too many cheesy lines
-not enough of Unicron destroying planets-where was Galvatron?
-no Decepticons
-no Rodimus?
-why not use the Matrix to destroy Unicron?
-soundtrack was rubbish (Could have used at least some of the originals like)

They picked some parta from the 1986 film and Beast Wars TV show and mangled it into their own bundle of unwatchable crap :(
Coincidence that Alexander Skarsgård — aka. Eric Northman — stars in this movie? I think not!

I was hoping there'll be something referencing Eric from True Blood (:pound_symbol:TeamEric), however, there is sadly nothing of the sort :( Unless there is an after-credits scene I missed that is.
Sounds like you only watched the first 15 minutes of the film.
A bit of a nothing burger, it doesn’t really get interesting until the final 20-30 minutes.
There are a few entertaining bits inbetween (e.g. there’s a fun scene with Paul Rudd in a Wallmart), but there’s not nearly enough going on.
It’s just mostly bland: some decent acting and directing, but there’s not a lot of action, mystery, charm, clever comedy, drama or characters to get invested into (besides McKenna Grace).
For example, Finn Wolfhard gets as much development as the older brother from Jurassic World, he’s a teen and he wants to get laid. That’s all you get, and it’s not that interesting.
There are, of course, a lot of ‘member berries, which add nothing besides empty nostalgia.
The original Ghostbusters leave the biggest impression with just 5 minutes of screentime, and they clearly didn’t even give a shit about being there.
It’s not the worst thing ever, but this falls short of the benchmark for this kind of movie.
Just watch the original, or anything directed by Spielberg and Cameron in the 80s/90s.5/10

Found one of the critics from the metacritic! ;)
This is a good spy-thriller film of course. But the main problem I had was, throughout the movie, I didn't actually feel the gravity of danger the world's facing or even the risk they are facing doing something like this that much. But nevertheless, hat's off to Benedict's acting, this man is incredible.

I don't think the gravitas is felt in such moments - only after they pass one does realize how these situations shape the world we live in.
