Jeff, I too feel that Bay was out of his element. It seems that when he tries to infuse "love" subplots in his movies, they tend to not come off so well. The Rock, for me, was an awesome action movie. Then came Armaggeddon, and the beginnings of a failed love circle with Affleck & Tyler and the father on the outside looking in. Didn't do it for me in a convincing manner, but I liked the rest of the film. PH had way too much time spent on what I thought to be a weak love triangle at best. Yes the attack itself was visceral (cheesy dialog from the principles notwithstanding), but there was altogether too much of the love subplot which Bay cannot convincingly pull off.
Just my view.
