The film opens with a bit of historical hogwash, suggesting that America’s Cold War Space Race was actually motivated by a crashed alien transport. The ship carries the technology to open a “space bridge,” by which instantaneous travel across the universe is possible. Everyone involved wants the tech, and the battle begins. A lot of disposable human carnage litters the screen, along with a sickening perversion of Americanism. Shia LaBeouf reprises his role as one of the many human goofballs. Shoddily directed by Michael Bay. (2011) — John Rubio
