Bay's worst film to date and the biggest piece of evidence yet in the case against him.

Fargo for jerks.

An often hilarious black comedy with a nicely embedded moral.

Not for the kiddies, this immensely entertaining flick is a hard-R romp through seedy South Florida.

Now [Bay] hits new levels of both artistry and sleaziness in the black comedy Pain & Gain, which I strongly recommend if you don't overvalue taste, subtlety, and moral decency. I liked it.

The most shocking thing about the new Michael Bay film is... not the orange, grunting criminals pumping a) iron, b) fists and c) other people, but the gradual realisation that this could be Bay's most intellectual film yet.

This crude and ugly entertainment is as crass as everything this depressingly successful filmmaker has done.

The first hour may be Bay's career high point: it's fast, freaky, gloriously tasteless and startlingly pointed in its attacks on western insecurity, shallowness and greed.

Maybe he's trying to do 'GoodFellas'-style dark comedy (the copious voice-overs would certainly suggest it), but put as charitably as possible, Bay is no Scorsese.

In between scenes of the muscleheads torturing their victim, Bay indulges his taste for treating women as sluts and grisly brutality as a nifty excuse for a cheap laugh.

It's official. Michael Bay, director of the Transformers clobberfests, knows how to make movies about humans, too. The problem is, he thinks humans are robots.

Pain & Gain weighs about 700 pounds when it ought to weigh 2.
