Movie Preview : Transformers: Age of Extinction

     Now that the bitterness of winter is starting to finally melt away, spring is here but we all know summer is not too far away. When it comes to the summer in the box office, every moviegoer knows that summer blockbuster and popcorn flicks will dominate theaters. For some films and directors, their films are tailor-made for the summer money-makers.

     Michael Bay is one of those directors whose films are targeted for a summer release. His films are meant for the coolness of air-conditioned theaters where the action keeps everything hot for audiences. After summer hits like Bad Boys II, The Island, and, most recently, the Transformers trilogy. This summer, Bay is returning to the world of larger-than-life machines that are set to make our world their battlefield once again.

     In the fourth film of the Transformers film series, set four years after the events of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, a struggling inventor (Mark Wahlberg) and  his daughter (Nicola Peltz) uncover a discovery that brings about the return of the Autobots, the Decepticons, and the government on them. From the trailer, it seems that the Transformers have all been forgotten with the government seeking to remain in control after the events of the war between the Autobots and Decepticons. 

     It seems as though two of our favorite Autobots, Bumblebee and Optimus Prime, are getting an upgrade as they go into battle again against more treacherous villains. Overall, you should expect to see the same destruction and action to come from a Michael Bay film. 

     Transformers: Age of Extinction is scheduled to be released on June 27, 2014.
