I'm honestly shocked that you paid to see a Michael Bay film. I remember how you used to torture Irish for being a fan.
The first Bay movie I paid to see at the theatres since I guess BAD BOYS 2. Thing is I deserve derision because I knew it would suck but I guess I was in the mood for crap. That's the thing about Bay: He always makes the same movie over and over, difference only in budgets, but I do give him credit for his consistent success because he appeals to the very lowest of low audience expectations. He's like those POLICE ACADEMY sequels, except more explodey. And less Steve Guttenberg and that guy who made noises with his mouth.
I like to think you can learn as much about the movies from the turkeys as you do from the winners. (Screen THE AVENGERS and BATTLESHIP together, it's quite a revelation.)
Bad Boys 2 was a decent movie, I remember almost every kid in college who had dvd's had that movie. It is fun to watch when your having a drink and your seeing tons of action/stuff blow up. I thought Pearl harbor was a decent movie as well, I am a big war movie buff.
