This week, we finally tackle the most divise modern filmmaker in Hollywood: Michael Bay. In part one, we look at his earlier films, from Bad Boys to Pearl Harbor. We talk about how Armageddon is so shitty it feels like a surrealistic nightmare, why The Rock has aged so well, how horrible Pearl Harbor really is, how Bad Boys made Will Smith into a movie star, and why the film is Bay’s most progressive work.
