We also learn very little of the Maximals as their full group introduction only happens much later in the movie. Having both the Maximals and Autobots in one film makes it feel like two entirely different franchises are being juggled and fighting for screen time. If there was ever a movie that needed to be a two parter but wasn't, it's this. Everything happens just too quickly because the movie had to get somewhere by the end but wanted to do so much before then that you end up with less impactful sequences that are over before they even start. Overall the story is sufferable but very condensed. Although none of the fights are comparable to the iconic choreographed fights Michael Bay gave us (Optimus v Bone crusher in 2007, The Forest Battle in Revenge of the Fallen or just about anything in the second half of Dark of the Moon) they are acceptable. Although the human element is present and (much weaker and less fleshed out than previous entries) the movie absolutely delivers on robot on robot action.
