Michael Bay

What makes a Michael Bay film a Michael Bay film

Across 14 films, they run far more energy, much more violence and somewhat less melancholy than films in general. Their films resemble each other more than chance would account for, though not unusually so.

The line down the middle is the average film. A bar to the right means more of that reading than films in general, to the left less. Drawn from every film of theirs in the catalogue, not a selection.
