Why is this rated so relatively low?

I'm not going to go with the stupid "this movie is underrated/overrated" cliché because I know this depends on people's ratings and whatnot but I can't deny I'm quite baffled by its average rating. Honestly, I'd expect this film to have a 7 at least, to me it's a fine example of black comedy but I guess I am pretty much into black comedy. Maybe the widespread hate for Bay (whom I'm not very fond of in general either) had to do something with it?

Because it's Michael Bay.

You're supposed to hate him.

obviously I'm kidding, like whatever you want.

Yeah, that's one of the reasons I thought of myself too.

No idea... I thought it was hilarious. One of my favourites. I gave it a 9. Can't believe it's a Michael Bay movie.

Michael Bay, period.
