I’m not going to tell you that Michael Bay has no soul. Only that I’ve never seen evidence of one in any of his films.
The irony, of course, is that by commercial standards Bay is the filmmaker of his generation, able to hits the mass audience’s sweet spot with a fusion of flash, noise, endless f/x and eye-blurring action.
