That looks like the kind of Michael Bay movie I was hoping he'd make again. Thank goodness it's not more Transformers.

Looks good, though it felt like they showed the entire movie in the trailer.

Wait this was a heist movie?

I was under the impression it was going to be a high octane paramedic/first responders premise with a Micheal Bay flair.

 

[Little Mac]

Looks like a Money Train remake with actors thinking this is their shot at an Oscar.

Also reminds me of Con Air which isn’t a bad thing.

I really hope there is a quick scene of Jason Statham popping up to shoot at them , just to tie it into Wrath of Man

Give me the Bay/Ritchie universe!!

 

[EruditeHobo]

The very last thing the insanity that is Bay's aesthetic needed was for him to implement drone footage. Or maybe it was always going to go this way. Regardless, the king of mainstream visual chaos just bought himself a new crown...

Anyways... yes it at least looks more interesting than big CGI cartoons beheading each other and ripping each other's spines out or whatever happened in the last trans-formers movie. And yes I'm sure that I will watch it.

Out of all the trailers today this looks the most entertaining.

 

[jason10mm]

Why are they highlighting the "LA"? Does anyone give a shit where it is set?

 

[trikster40]

Return to form for Michael Bay. This looks great. Great cast, interesting premise, looking forward to a good old-fashioned Bay popcorn flick!

Michael Bay fail… how do you make a Michael Bay movie called ambulance and not have the very first trailer set to the correct song?:

Opportunity missed by a mile

Looks better than I was expecting, but have to echo the sentiment that it showed way too much.

To be fair Bay films tend to run long and everything in the trailer could be in the first 60 minutes

Classic MB, lotsa explosions and destruction

This looks garbage. Leave it to MB to make a movie about an ambulance with guns and explosions.

lol I was thinking the same thing

Take a shot every time you see a cut and you'll get wasted in less than 15 seconds

 

[Javthusiast]

I am always hyped for some Bayhem.

[TheInfamousKira]

I read the title as "Ambulance - Dr. Michael Bay,"

Severely, nay

DEVESTATINGLY

disappointed.

 

[Sidney Prescott]

Looks like a fun popcorn flick, I won't be expecting anything more. I enjoy Heist movies and I like the cast.

Movie is just a simple fun film, nothing amazing. There isn't much set up at all and it gets to the heist as fast as possible. As is typical with a Michael Bay film you don't care about the characters, you are just there to enjoy the ride and it is quite fun. There are a hell of a lot of drone shots, many of them do look good, some don't need to be there.

Some of the action is very jarring, no real flow to them, just videos edited together. As an example, you'll see the ambulance driving in what looks like a warehouse docking bay area but the ambulance is down on the actual road/carpark looking section. Then the next minute the ambulance is driving up on the actual docking bay that trucks reverse their trailers into. You don't see this transition at all, it's like the ambulance just teleports there.

Story spoiler.

Spoiler

I really didn't care for any of the cartel shit, I feel that it bloated the film and didn't need to be there at all.

It had really damn good atmos audio though!!!
