While the flashier elements tend to get most of the attention, there are also subtle symptoms of Bayhem, like rampant patriotism and a romantic view of the “little guy.” In Bay’s films, these two themes are often deployed in equal measure despite being at odds with one another.

A con artist, a cop, and a hitman walk into a small-town police station. What results is the reason phrases like "lightning in a bottle" and "hell yeah" exist. Joe Carnahan's Copshop represents the absolute height of what action films can achieve when they have white-knuckle tension, a killer story, and two of the most charismatic performances of t...
Between Armageddon and the Transformers franchise, Bay ranks high among directors who love silly sci-fi and disaster elements. But no one ranks higher on this list than the legend himself, the director of Moonfall, Roland Emmerich. Independence Day, Godzilla, and 2012 have shaped our modern understanding of what makes a blockbuster sci-fi/disaster ...
A mix of Bayhem, John Wick, and Hardcore Henry, Ilya Naishuller's Nobody manages to rise above its inspirations to become much more than the sum of its parts. The film follows an emasculated every-man named Hutch, played by comedy legend Bob Odenkirk, who returns to his former life of violence after his house is robbed. The Bayhem of Nobody comes f...
Action stalwart Gerard Butler stars as an engineer who, along with his family, is selected by the government to receive life-saving emergency shelter from an extinction-level comet heading towards Earth.

- 'Bad Boys' (1995) Buddy-cop comedy meets "The Odd Couple" with identity-switching and lots of things that go boom.
