Nope. Tony Scott. But, I get what you mean. Still, it's got this thin film of political intrigue / thriller across the top that really holds the plot together. Bay would have skimmed that right off.

Also, I'm not a fan of Tony Scott at all, but boy can cast the hell out of a movie. He's got great actors in every tiny role.

Sorry, they all looks the same to me. Those directors, I mean.

Bay did The Island, and it suffers from the same thing, it could have been awesome with other director.
