Just came home from the theater. It opened today in france (may 21st)
The lights went down, the movie started and sure enough, as soon as mr.jones showed up, the theater was shaking with people rooting and clapping.
Fast forward one hour and fifty minutes later, and everyone is silently getting up walking towards the nearest exit thinking "WTF?"
I am not going to spoil anything for you, but i feel the need to express the following:
It is badly written, badly shot and badly "CGI'ed"
I Loved the originals, but this one was a joke.
There are so many moments that jokes and actions fall flat that you start wondering if mr. spielberg ever read his own "approved" screenplay.
I understand that twenty years and countless rip-off's later, its hard to impress with the same palette. But the way that the filmmakers decided to go in order to "change" was to shrink the plot down to it's minimum and create all the digital effects they couldn't in all 3 previous films all together.
They could shot on-location during the 80's. I Don't understand why they can't do it know. It looks horrible, some of the blue-screen material are simply disgusting.

According to IMDb, the filmmakers made quite a bit of the movie on location:

In addition, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, the movie used more stunt performers than almost any action movie in the past twenty years in its attempt to get away from too many pure CGI activities.

Rather harsh and uncalled for, no? He was excellent in "Disturbia" and "The Greatest Game Ever Played." But I suppose you're referring to "Transformers"?

I'm not referring to any specific movie. He sucks in all of them. He should just go back to that Even Stevens crap that he came from on Disney.
