Do you like boobs and action? Do you like when they are combined together in a blend of action and cleavage so you’re confused where the explosions stop and where the sexy begins? Then you probably like Michael Bay. And will be delighted to know he directed a Victoria’s Secret commercial.
I don’t know how I feel about it. It’s not like Victoria’s Secret is an institution that hasn’t been defiled before from duets by Heidi Klum and Seal, and marriages to weird basketball players. But this just makes Victoria’s Secret look either more epic or more mundane. I can’t decide. But whoever had the idea to have models throw knives, kudos to you. I’d be terrified of their upper-arm strength not sustaining a follow-through, and then not being able to dial out to 911.
Fortunately, there are helicopters. There are nice cars. There are random cuts to the circus, people yelling, and lots and lots of lingerie.
Hate on Michael Bay all you want, I guarantee you, his life is more awesome than yours. He gives people parts by having them wash his Ferrari. Kubrick didn’t do that. You know why? Because Michael Bay would’ve kicked him in the face. Repeatedly. Take that, you giant baby.

Pretty ingenious if you ask me. really, this is the sort of thing Michael Bay was born to create. It takes all of his strengths -- sexy girls, sexy explosions, sexy cinematography and sexy action -- while, simultaneously, leaving behind all weaknesses -- plot, dialogue, and overly-long running times. Badass.
