Take a journey with us to the far off year of 2019! This 2005 film takes place in the not too distant future of July 2019, culminating on July 22nd (hey that's the day this episode came out!) Like most of Michael Bay's movies, this film did not impress critics, but unlike his other films it also failed at the box office.



We debate if this is just normal Bay action fare or if it’s actually a more interesting sci-fi paranoia thriller! It might even be both!
