Regardless, it wasn’t one of the typical liberal lecture films we have to endure for the rest of the year. For once, the military isn’t depicted as savages.

With the possible exception of The Rock, which showed a Marine Colonel gone crazy, Bay's films are all pro-American, or at least neutral. Pearl Harbor was way too cheesy, but at least it portrayed Americans as unambiguous heroes.

Bay's not the best director, but he blows stuff up almost like no one else, and he's not going to smother his audience in leftist propaganda. You've got to appreciate him, at least for that.
