New Transformers Movie an Intellectual Orgasm

New Transformers movie an esoteric vision

The early reviews are in, and the fortieth installment of Michael Bay’s epic science fiction saga, Transformers: Age of Extinction, is quickly being hailed as the War and Peace of the silver screen.

“Age of Extinction,” writes Desson Howe of the Washington Post, ”plays itself with such contrapuntal richness, it resonates in you forever. Set in an unknown time and space, this extraterrestrial saga of will, destiny and passion–starring Mark Wahlberg (formerly Marky Mark of the Funky Bunch)–is an extraordinary symphony of sound and silence, of lilting pleasure and tangled horror.”

“It’s a genuinely epic ciné-poem that deals with flying, transforming robots as an absolute, inevitable and eternal facet of existence,” raves Geoff Andrew of Time Out.

“So gorgeous it feels as if it’s being seen through heavenly eyes,” exudes Josh Larsen of LarsenOnFilm.

“An intellectual cine-gasm,” writes Porter Ponihousen of Iron E movie reviews.

“When Optimus Prime (so nimble of heart and mind!) turns to his ‘merry few’, his ‘band of brothers’, and says, ‘Autobots, roll out!’ I knew I would never be the same. I was caught up! transfigured! in a sweet rapture of existential intoxication that eclipsed my wildest imaginings. It’s safe to say that nothing has been or ever will be its equal.”

Transformers: Age of Extinction comes out June 27, 2014. Check your local listings.
