Transformers: The Last Knight Review: 5 Ups & 6 Downs

2. The Incredible Sound & Visuals

One of the more reliable aspects of any Michael Bay film is the sonic and visual ingenuity he brings to the table. In that regard, The Last Knight is a frequently ravishing film, essentially 2.5 hours of IMAX and VFX porn, with gorgeous open vistas and the most impeccable digital colliding metal you've ever seen.

It typically sounds fantastic, too, with the sound editing in particular being reliably crunchy and pleasing to the ears. If you're even remotely interested in the film, it's really worth watching on the largest screen you can find, because though there's a lot to criticise The Last Knight for, it providing plenty of whizz-bang for your buck absolutely isn't one of them.
