I've made my own thoughts on the movie known in my review of the film proper so here I'll just talk about The Nostalgia Critic video.
Doug Walker, calling himself The Nostalgia Critic, overly enthusiastically praises Michael Bay's Transformers as "the greatest movie I've ever seen in my life" and then sarcastically celebrates the movie's flaws to make fun of it and maintains this overly optimistic persona until the end when he breaks character and offers an extremely deadpan "it was good, I enjoyed it."
What do I think of the video? I think that, by and large, the flaws he exposed in the movie are present and that Doug Walker did a good job expressing them in a humorous way. I found The Nostalgia Critic's over the top praise to be rather funny. And I found that how understated the concluding "It was good, I enjoyed it" was, in comparison to the excitable praise from before it, was an amusing shift.
All in all, this Nostalgia Critic episode is pretty good.
