Finished watching Transformers: The Last Knight, directed by Michael Bay and starring Liam Garrigan, Stanley Tucci, Isabela Moner, Mark Wahlberg, Peter Cullen, Frank Welker, Jim Carter and Anthony Hopkins. The film opens in the middle of a large battle with King Arthur's (Liam Garrigan) army is on the brink of defeat with Arthur putting his faith into Merlin (Stanley Tucci) to find a way to turn the tides of the battle, which he does in the for of twelve Knight Transformers that combine to form a large three headed dragon that wins Arthur the battle and ends up forming an alliance with the Transformers. Back in modern day the film goes to a destroyed Chicago where a group of kids met a young local girl named Izabella (Isabela Moner) try's to stop the kids from getting caught by an anti Transformers military unit, but once they're noticed a wanted Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg) along with Bumblebee save the kids from the the military unit. Once Cade returns to his junkyard where the rest of the Autobots have been living since Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen) left Earth, the military unit find themselves working together with Megatron (Frank Welker) to find and capture Cade and the Autobots thanks to the help of a tracker that was planted on Bumblebee in the first fight. During that fight between the Autobots and Decepticons, a human size Transformer named Cogman (Jim Carter) has come to take Cade to England to meet with astronomer and historian Sir Edmund Burton (Anthony Hopkins) after receiving the news of Cade being handed an artefact from a dying Transformer in Chicago. Overall this was an okay film as it continues to deliver on the great Transformer action set prices and some of the CGI that brings to Transformers to life looks breathtaking in some places. However the the film itself is plagued by multiple editing problems from the cutting between shots going from full screen to wide screen shot with a different picture quickly which becomes incredibly annoying as these changes are very noticeable throughout the film. The film's story has some very interesting concepts that are on show which effect that the Transformers movie universe but never all get fully expanded upon and even the ending of the film leaves a lot to be desired as the film becomes a story full of exposition about the secret history of the Transformers on Earth. 5.5/10.
