The cg looks bad guys, it might be Youtube doesn't fully show the crispness, but it just looks like Transformers 4 Lockdown transforming from car to robot for the first time. This can be a Marvel thing (rushing the digital artists to death) or budget restraints. Hopefully it looks better onscreen. If it doesn't I still wouldn't hold it against them, they shove in a lot of cg battles and bots.
I'm told IL&M are not behind this film. Which I think is quite evident from the trailer.

Unicron is boring because he's barely a character and more like a Transforming Death Star most of the time, I kinda hope he's not just killed off here and is instead more of a multi-film villain who can actually be his own character.
That's just it. Ever since '86, he's been a plot device. Even the Marvel Run, which gave the G1 iteration additional storylines. Didn't really make his characterisation that deep. I don't see this film veering too far from his classic depictions, to be honest.
