I have mixed feelings about Bay
Bad Boys is OK, tries too hard to be the black version of Lethal Weapon, Will Smith works better in MiB
The Rock is a solid action flick, not the first Die Hard, but not the crap Steven Seagal has attached himself to for the last decade or so
I would have loved Armageddon if it hadn't decided to take itself seriously about a hour or so in
Pearl Harbor tried way too hard to be a clone of Titanic with the damn love story and the teen heart-throbs and deservingly paid the price for it
Bay had no business making a movie like The Island with his style of film-making, a film like that should have been in the hands of someone like Ridley Scott
Transformers had its fine moments, but it was about 40 minutes too long and tried and failed to have it both ways in keeping the fanboys happy and appealing to a bigger audience
I'll believe it when I see it regarding Bay no longer making action movies
