Release date: 21 June 2017 (Philippines) Director: Michael Bay Based on: Transformers; by Hasbro Budget: 260 million USD Music composed by: Steve Jablonsky Bonifacio High Street Central Square Cinemas This long-awaited movie is worth it.  Yes, it's still very long even if Michael Bay shortened it(a little more than 2 1/2 hours), but the scenes were pretty exciting, so I didn't notice the time.  For a non-expert or ordinary viewer I could say I love the special effects.
