I went with two friends who haven't seen anything TF-related outside of the previous movies, and they said it's par the course, same thing as usual.

They seem to have enjoyed it overall, one of them praised Lockdown as a better villain in the one movie he was in than Loki in the three he was in, and it's come up in conversation before when we were discussing movies.

 

My dad said it was like the last three, but he generally doesn't like movies...or Transformers.

Might show him Beast Wars sometime.

 

My best friend said it was good. My other two friends I saw it with thought it was good, with big plot holes. When I asked what the pot holes were, and gave them an answer to them, they'd only reply with a "I guess."

My in-laws seemed to have really enjoyed it though. So that's cool.

 

I watch the Films always with my father who respected them and knew some characters. He always adored Russian dubbing. But unfortunately he died last year. I was going to cinema with my older brother, his wife and his daughter but they said before day that they can't due to work's problem. Than I have to go by myself.
My mother knows all characters who's toys versions I have but she never see the Films and consider it as a religious sect 
My older brother very like TFs, watch film twice and recently ask me about buying TF toys 
His daughter (she is 15) don't watch AOE yet but VERY want it and ask me about new vehicle mode for Autobots, I have to spoil her 
My friends from Snt Petersburg (man - american truck driver, his wife his 17-year daughter and 6-year son) said that they VERY like the Film, daughter now wants a poster and son wants TF toys (I already got them for him)
My best friend 22-year girl don't watch TF but know main heroes and often ask me about TF at all. She very respect my passion 
Some of my other friends have different thoughts: guys mainly like TFs but badly interested in it, some girls don't like TFs but some very like and interested due to "romantic and good actors"
Mostly russian people like Michael Bay's TFs from children to 40-year old mens

 

I saw it with my dad. He hated it. And he liked RotF.

I was gonna go see it with my mom on my birthday... But then Apes came out, and I couldn't justify spending more money on this than that.

 

I went to see it with my brothers and they liked it then went to see it with a couple girls I know they liked it but they thought it was too long and had some stupid scenes.

 

One person whom a friend and I invited tolerated it, but she said she probably won't see it again.

She also is rather turned off by Mark Wahlberg's violent tendencies in real life.

 

Saw it the first time with a friend and my girlfriend. My friend doesn't know a lot about transformers but he thought it was the best one. My girlfriend being somewhat of a transformer fan liked it a lot she loved Hound. After i saw it with my mom and sister. My sister hates everything about transformers so she really didn't like it. My Mom liked it a lot she was confused about the robots however.

 

Among my friends I know a lot who enjoyed and a lot who hated it.

 

My mom has seen the other 3 and she thought that AOE was miles better.

 

My sister thought it was meh and the plot was an inconvenience to the action.
My girlfriend loved it but she likes transformers anyway so I guess that doesn't count.

 

Saw it with my sister the first time. She thought it was too long but she really enjoyed it. She really liked Optimus, Bumblebee, Hound, Brains and the Dinobots. Saw it with a couple of friends the second time and they along with the rest of the audience really liked it as well. My second showing got a bigger applause than the first showing.

 

my brother thought the movie was insulting to the Dinobots

 

My brother liked the movie but thought it was way too long with too many action scenes.

My friend thought it was amazing and told me after the movie that it was way better than The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and X-Men: Days Of Future Past.

 

My best friend actually didn't mind it when we saw it a few weeks ago.

 

They all thought it was awesome

 

My sister thought it was meh too

 

..

 

My sister thought the film was too long when she saw the film with me and 5 of her kids.

She also didn't like how there wasn't any reference to any of the human characters from any of the previous 3 Transformer films.

 

I watched it with my friend, and even tho the movie took almost one hour to begin (the movie projector broke,  ), she was still really excited for the movie.

I don't know how many times she said "That's awesome". She was really enjoying and even asked me a few times about things she was confused or didn't get. At the end she said it was the best movie of the series, and one of the best she ever saw on a cinema. And she isn't even close to a TFan.
