The point is the movie served it's purpose, it allowed me to stuff my face with take-away and forget everything for a couple of hours; it was pure junk-indulgence and I didn't have to cringe at any ham-fisted attempts by the producers to make it relevant or deep. see: Pearl Harbour (an action movie posing as a historical drama)
edit: AND it had John Turturro in it. What more do you need?

Everyone hates LeBeouf but I won't lie, I actually liked him in Transformers. I thought Bay casting a guy like him in the lead instead of someone like Ben Affleck was dare I say it?....... original.
