‘Transformers: Age of Extinction’ Most Tolerable of Series

HollywoodChicago.com Oscarman rating: 3.0/5.0
Rating: 3.0/5.0

Rating: 4.0/5.0

CHICAGO – “Battleship” certainly could simplistically be reduced to a 131-minute propaganda piece of why you might want to enlist in the U.S. Navy – that is, if Earth had to ward off lizard-like creatures from a deep-space solar system we can only reach by slingshotting a highly amplified “What’s up, aliens?” broadcast to them.
