Alright, I'm man enough to admit when I was wrong. However, I'll say in my defense that when I said he hasn't made a good film I hadn't seen Transformers: Dark of the Moon yet.
That said, Transformers 3 isn't even an option in the poll! Crap!
I watched Transformers 3 last night with my kids expecting more of the same extremely stupid crap like the first two films. Instead I got a slightly toned down and tamer version of Michael Bay than I have ever seen, a plot that, while simple, actually made sense, and a two and a half hour action film that never felt boring or padded! What the hell?!? Where did this film come from?
Transformers: Dark of the Moon is not only his best film, but it's the only Bay film that I actually want to watch again! It played like a live action version of the Transformers cartoon, which is what I've always wanted from the films. The story was slim enough that it never got convoluted like the second one, but it still had enough of a story to keep me interested (of course that story was paper thin, but it was still there). The action was pretty good, but it should be since that's the only thing Bay has ever done well.
Anyway, I was wrong, he has made at least one decent film. The rest are all crap.
