Transformers has it's pros and cons, there's no one who can logically argue that. The pro's being superb editing, lethal action sequences, and plenty of water cooler moments.

The con's, on the other hand, are far more pervasive to serious movie critics. Shia Labeouf serves as nothing more then a snot nosed punk with no relevance to the story in any coherent sense, with his costars doing little more then delivering one liners and doing nothing of significance. I'll even go as far to say that Michael Bay only has people acting in the film is that it would be too expensive to do a movie exclusively focusing on the transformers. The plot is simple and you know where its going and how it ends. but then again, i think the point of this film is to just try and enjoy the actions sequences. Bay's at least got that in spades.… Expand

Nimoy is clearly doing his best and gives a fantastic performance as Sentinal Prime. The visuals are just breathtaking at points and gorgeous. But that's it! Other than those two things, the movie is utter garbage. It rehashes everything from the previous movies. There is no real focus on any character and doing anything to really develop them (aside from Optimus.) Sam is as annoying as ever in all his LaBeouf-ness. New hot girl is bland and uninteresting (but at least slightly better than Megan Fox.) The rest of the cast is forgettable and are really just there as plot devises. The overall story is nonsensical and most of the time seems to just make up its own logic, Transformers 1 & 2 did this too, but nowhere near as much as this movie. Overall: This is a movie that was designed to be an optical marvel and really is nothing more than an insult to fans and the general public. In short: It's the movie equivalent of a gold-plated turd.… Expand

The action has improved from the second movie, and it's not as annoying overall, but it still feels like it was made for 10 year olds. It can be fun, but from a story perspective it's brain dead. Some of the plot twists are idiotic, and it lacks a true sense of grandeur like the first movie had. It overloads on c.g.i. way too often, the robots seriously need to shut up, and when it's over it's over. Nothing truly lingers beyond the running time. There's nothing to think or feel about. An impressive action scene or two can't give a movie a soul, or a good story, or a brain. Like I said, it's not as bombastic as the second movie, but if Bay's going to keep milking this cash cow, (and we all know he will), he should seriously look at the first movie again, and see what he did there. Not that it was a masterpiece, but it was good. This one however, I can't truly call good. Ok is more like it.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So the last live action Transformers movie; for now at least, and it's obvious to say that this one is better than the last one. After the hate the last one got from pretty much everybody, I guess Bay decided not to muck up his next as much. I mean don't get me wrong, none these three movies are really that good. This one is entertaining and less offensive than the last one. For starters no twin robots, that's a positive in my book. Okay so I'm tired of the racist stuff about them, I think they're racist stereotypes, but I just hate them because they were so fricking annoying in that last one. Anyways back to this film, the only offensive stereotype to come out of this movie is probably that Asian guy who was in the Hangover. Action in this movie; obviously, is great to look at, but at times bring up questions. Like, how does shockwave drive that worm thing? Where do these new autobots come from? Why were Decepticons hiding on the moon for so long? And why do transformers have to be involved in Chernobyl? That's the main problem with this movie; of course that's debatable, that while all the action and spectacles are occurring, it causes much more questions. I could give any less care for the main character, I grown tired of him, so I don't even care. The new girlfriend however is a bit better, not by much, but at least isn't as bad as that last chick was. There's nothing much to talk about with this one, it made a lot of money, but what else is new!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "Iniziano bene e finiscono male" A.C. quello che si può dire del terzo capitolo della saga di Transformers.
E' un film che stata tutta una corsa, doveva iniziare e subito finire, una "minestra" di eventi che ha, secondo me, rovinato il film e la saga che lo ha preceduto; per non bastare, i registi hanno il vizio, direttamente o indirettamente di cambiare i personaggi. La bella e brava attrice Megan Fox (Mikaela Banes) sostituita dalla Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (Carly Brooks Spencer) la prima "gnocca" che capita che brava solo a mostrare le gambe e non ha il talento della nostra amata Fox.

Bay certainly used his profitable formula once more to create a movie that is quite possibly too long and to shallow, but certainly better then it's predecessor. It offered a lot within the technical scope, certainly elevating the first to movies and the plot was much more interesting than earlier, albeit not missing some WTF moments. Everything else - pale, shallow and typically 'Bayesque'. Also, the casting of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as Megan Fox's successor was the biggest flop of the franchise. Sure, Megan was horrible and we wanted her out, but the blond bimbo was such a step downwards that we actually wanted Megan back - yup, she was that horrible!

With a more interesting plot and a great set of technical achievements, combined with some very well picked cast members (Turturro, Malkovich), 'Dark Side of the Moon' offers more than it's predecessor, but still much less than the first movie and it is, essentially, an overly long action-packed movie with giant robots that trash everything around them. Something for the fans, but certainly not a first-time.

Also, this was the last installment with Shia... finally.… Expand

In the wake of widespread criticism of the second live action Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, director Michael Bay admitted dissatisfaction with the screenplay and blamed it on the writers' strike. So what's the excuse this time?In the wake of widespread criticism of the second live action Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, director Michael Bay admitted dissatisfaction with the screenplay and blamed it on the writers' strike. So what's the excuse this time? If anything, the script for Transformers: Dark of the Moon is worse than that of its predecessor. In the future, maybe Bay should abandon using a screenwriter altogether and just fill up 90 minutes with disconnected images of robo-carnage. That would serve two purposes: eliminate the need to watch actors embarrass themselves trying to outshine the hardware and elide excruciating dialogue, exposition, and "character development," all of which are inferior to what one finds in the average Pink Panther cartoon.

Bay makes the Transformers movies for 14-year old boys. I suspect he's one at heart, which gives him insight into the mindset of his target audience. I remember what it was like to be a 14-year old boy but I'm not sure I would have been more enamored with this movie at that age than I am today. Maybe it would have struck a chord when I was eight. That's when I watched Japanese monster movies which, technological advances in special effects aside, are not all that different from Transformers. In those movies, men in rubber suits pounded on each other. In Transformers and its sequels, CGI robots wreak the same kind of mayhem as Godzilla and friends. The average Japanese monster movie didn't have much of a plot either (aside from the obvious - stomp Tokyo), but it managed to get the job done with about an hour's less screen time.

It's pointless criticizing the action/destruction sequences in Transformers 3. Those are the "money shots" of this strain of cataclysm porn. People pay for extreme special effects. They want to see these Rockem-Sockem robots mash each other into the ground while Shia LaBeouf yells loudly in the hope that a big voice will compensate for his small stature (at least compared to the Transformers). In the biggest battles, I had some trouble figuring out the difference between the good guys (Autobots) and the bad guys (Decepticons), largely because (a) I'm not a Transformers fan (so the nuances escape me), and (b) things were moving a bit too fast. Aficionados will no doubt chortle at my ignorance.

The story, which requires more than a "willing suspension of disbelief" to swallow (an infusion of a mind-altering substance would be a good start), begins in the 1960s when men travel to the moon to investigate a crashed Transformers space ship. 40-plus years later, Optimus Prime (voice of Peter Cullen), having belatedly learned of this discovery, takes a salvage team to our nearest celestial neighbor. They return with the dormant remains of Sentinel Prime (Nimoy), who is resurrected by Optimus. Sentinel is the inventor of the Transformers' greatest weapon, which can be used to help or destroy humanity. The Autobots champion the former, but the Decepticons, led by a crippled Megatron (Hugo Weaving), have other plans. Old friends, like Sam, Lennox (Josh Duhamel), and Simmons (John Turturro), are joined by new ones, like Mearing (Frances McDormand) and Brazos (John Malkovich), to provide a human face to the resistance movement against the Decepticons as the evil metal creatures use Chicago as their base for an all-out assault on the planet.

Bay's flip-flopping on the issue of 3-D has led to widespread speculation about how effectively it is used in Transformers 3. After initially voicing opposition to it, he changed his position after discussions with James Cameron. Transformers 3 employs a mixture of native 3-D and post-production conversion. To his credit, Bay has avoided many of the common missteps, including the most pervasive (murky, muddy images), but there is still motion blur during intense action sequences. The most curious thing about the 3-D, however, is how innocuous it is. In many scenes, the 3-D approach does a remarkably good job imitating 2-D. People wearing the glasses are apt to forget that Transformers 3 is in 3-D not because they're immersed but because the 3-D is so flat and unremarkable. That's more than a little disappointing because the closer a Transformers film can come to an amusement park ride, the better.

Transformers 3 is like Transformers and Transformers 2 only bigger, longer, and louder. It's up to each individual to determine whether that holds appeal or is another cause to bemoan what the summer blockbuster has become.… Expand

After he’s cleared of sexual harassment at the end of the classic Simpsons episode, Homer Badman, Homer J. Simpson turns to his wife, and gleefully announces, “Marge, my friend, I haven’t learned a thing.”

Michael Bay is Homer Simpson. NotAfter he’s cleared of sexual harassment at the end of the classic Simpsons episode, Homer Badman, Homer J. Simpson turns to his wife, and gleefully announces, “Marge, my friend, I haven’t learned a thing.”

Michael Bay is Homer Simpson. Not superficially, of course – he has a gorgeous head of lovely, flowing hair, and he’s not yellow. But when it comes to avoiding the same mistakes that beset 2009’s Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen for this third (and final?) instalment of his toy-based blockbuster trilogy, he hasn’t learned a thing.

OK, admittedly the alarmingly racist robots, Skids and Mudflap, are gone, and there are no disconcerting close-ups of giant robot balls. But that still doesn’t prevent what remains from being, well, giant robot balls.

Exposition scenes are still choppy as hell, the writing is lazy, the plot turns brazen and in bad taste (Chernobyl was caused by Decepticons) the film is overloaded with a cavalcade of superfluous supporting players (look! It’s Josh Duhamel as Captain Wotsit! Huzzah! Here comes Tyrese Gibson as Thingummy!), and there’s an oafish insistence on cheap-seats comedy relief that leaves actors like John Malkovich (as Sam’s scary new boss), Alan Tudyk (as John Turturro’s fey personal assistant) and Ken Jeong (running through his tired old schtick one more time) desperately mugging. It does lead, though, to the year’s most welcome death scene.

That’s the bad news. The good news is that Dark Of The Moon is better than Revenge Of The Fallen. But not by much.

That upturn is testament to its last 45 minutes, in which Bay drops the Homer impression and does his best stab at Michael Bay. For, when all’s said and done, not many directors can handle large-scale action like he can, and the climactic Bayhem, in which the Decepticons occupy Chicago and transform (ten points!) it into a smoking ruin, is stunning. Price-of-admission-alone stunning, as teams of winged base-jumpers dive out of planes and plummet past skyscrapers; those same buildings lurch to 90-degrees in a series of vertiginous shots that will have you clutching your chair (the 3D, probably the best deployment of the form since Avatar, helps here); and giant robots, of course, kick the living oil out of each other.

For a movie squarely aimed at teens, it’s extraordinarily violent. Humans are reduced to smoking skeletons by alien attacks, but the likes of Optimus Prime (when he’s not giving sanctimonious speeches, Jerry Springer-style) and Megatron (almost completely wasted) save the toughest treatment for themselves. Heads are lopped off, spinal columns are ripped out, and several are executed with shotgun blasts to the head, gangland-style, in a manner that suggests that this is the final instalment, at least for a while. If this action were human-on-human, we’d have the next Human Centipede 2 on our hands. Best not show this to your Roomba, though – it’ll be traumatized.

The first Transformers has its flaws, but it did have its charms. LaBeouf’s Sam Witwicky was an intriguing hero, like Woody Allen was parachuted into an action flick. Dark Of The Moon is mostly charmless, however – for the first (surprisingly action-lite, slow-moving) hour, Sam is a moaning, presumptuous brat whose relationship with his new girlfriend (Huntington-Whiteley) is so shabbily-defined that it’s hard to sympathise with him. A boy getting his first car is relatable; a young man throwing a tantrum because his impossibly hot girlfriend has a hotter boss is not.

As for Huntington-Whiteley, the much-trumpeted replacement for Megan Fox (dismissed with an amusing, “She was a **** We didn’t like her.”), Bay introduces her with a self-parodying shot of her barely-clad bottom and it’s all downhill from there. You’ll believe a robot can fly, but you won’t believe a Huntington-Whiteley can talk.

An improvement on Transformers 2, but then what isnt? To paraphrase the Bard, its a tale, full of sound and fury and extremely stupid dialogue and nonsensical plotting and preposterous stunts and robots punching each others heads off, signifying nothing!… Expand

In the wake of widespread criticism of the second live action Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, director Michael Bay admitted dissatisfaction with the screenplay and blamed it on the writers' strike. So what's the excuse this time?In the wake of widespread criticism of the second live action Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, director Michael Bay admitted dissatisfaction with the screenplay and blamed it on the writers' strike. So what's the excuse this time? If anything, the script for Transformers: Dark of the Moon is worse than that of its predecessor. In the future, maybe Bay should abandon using a screenwriter altogether and just fill up 90 minutes with disconnected images of robo-carnage. That would serve two purposes: eliminate the need to watch actors embarrass themselves trying to outshine the hardware and elide excruciating dialogue, exposition, and "character development," all of which are inferior to what one finds in the average Pink Panther cartoon.

Bay makes the Transformers movies for 14-year old boys. I suspect he's one at heart, which gives him insight into the mindset of his target audience. I remember what it was like to be a 14-year old boy but I'm not sure I would have been more enamored with this movie at that age than I am today. Maybe it would have struck a chord when I was eight. That's when I watched Japanese monster movies which, technological advances in special effects aside, are not all that different from Transformers. In those movies, men in rubber suits pounded on each other. In Transformers and its sequels, CGI robots wreak the same kind of mayhem as Godzilla and friends. The average Japanese monster movie didn't have much of a plot either (aside from the obvious - stomp Tokyo), but it managed to get the job done with about an hour's less screen time.

It's pointless criticizing the action/destruction sequences in Transformers 3. Those are the "money shots" of this strain of cataclysm porn. People pay for extreme special effects. They want to see these Rockem-Sockem robots mash each other into the ground while Shia LaBeouf yells loudly in the hope that a big voice will compensate for his small stature (at least compared to the Transformers). In the biggest battles, I had some trouble figuring out the difference between the good guys (Autobots) and the bad guys (Decepticons), largely because (a) I'm not a Transformers fan (so the nuances escape me), and (b) things were moving a bit too fast. Aficionados will no doubt chortle at my ignorance. As a lapsed Trekkie (maybe not so lapsed, after all), I can provide a catalogue of the Star Trek references in Transformers 3: a clip from "Amok Time", a mention of the Enterprise, and the biggest of all - Leonard Nimoy (providing the voice of Sentinal Prime) delivering this gem: "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." I'd love to know who was responsible for that: Bay, screenwriter Ehren Kruger, or Nimoy.

The story, which requires more than a "willing suspension of disbelief" to swallow (an infusion of a mind-altering substance would be a good start), begins in the 1960s when men travel to the moon to investigate a crashed Transformers space ship. 40-plus years later, Optimus Prime (voice of Peter Cullen), having belatedly learned of this discovery, takes a salvage team to our nearest celestial neighbor. They return with the dormant remains of Sentinel Prime (Nimoy), who is resurrected by Optimus. Sentinel is the inventor of the Transformers' greatest weapon, which can be used to help or destroy humanity. The Autobots champion the former, but the Decepticons, led by a crippled Megatron (Hugo Weaving), have other plans. Old friends, like Sam, Lennox (Josh Duhamel), and Simmons (John Turturro), are joined by new ones, like Mearing (Frances McDormand) and Brazos (John Malkovich), to provide a human face to the resistance movement against the Decepticons as the evil metal creatures use Chicago as their base for an all-out assault on the planet.

The words "been there, done that" apply. Transformers 3 is not substantially better or worse than Transformers or Transformers 2 because it's more of the same. There are battles. Things blow up. Human actors give inferior performances to machines. An attractive woman is unabashedly presented as a sex object. More things blow up. A city is leveled, with the destruction lovingly crafted and presented. And, in the end, it comes to a smashdown between Optimus Prime and Megatron, but we wouldn't have it any other way.

Transformers 3 is unlikely to change any minds regarding the franchise. The brilliantly cut trailer makes it look like this might be the first entry into the series to tell a compelling story, but that hope is dispelled fairly early in the proceedings. It should be remembered that Bay's movies, with their high energy action sequences and top-of-the-line special effects, always translate into good trailers and TV commercials.… Expand

The story and it's characters are actually more interesting than the previous 2 installments, but it's execution isn't that good, with it once again focusing on the human characters than the transformers. While the transformers do get more screen time than revenge of the fallen, it's not enough to make it more compelling. The human side of the story is just as dull as the other two, but somewhat better. Once again the special effects are pretty good, and the final act of the movie has an action packed end to it. Even though I don't care about the characters, I still enjoyed watching the final battle in Chicago.The humor in this movie is toned down a bit, but when it shows up, it attempts the same jokes as the other two movies, which isn't good.

But I never understood how a franchise that's making so cool trailers can possibly be bad. I had even watched the first two movies and liked them more than the average ratings. Dark of the Moon, however, answered my question. Little did we know that this was the part where the eventual downfall of the franchise will begin. And trust me when I say this, I really wanted to like this movie. Only if the pesky humans gave me a chance to do so.
The movie, once again, starts with Autobots saving the world from Decepticons. But then one of them gets caught by the bad guys. To be honest this, THIS is the very problem of the movie. We have come to watch Transformers for the big CGI fights, not to see the conflicts of humans and robots. Because I believe I'm speaking on behalf of all the people when I say this, but if there's ever a conflict between humans and Autobots, we will any day prefer the Autobots, even if they are wrong.
The CGI of this movie is amazing. This is one thing Michael Bay is really good at (other than the explosions of course). I really like to watch the Transformers turn into sports cars and drive across long distances all the while fighting the Decepticons. The thing is, however, it's literally the only reason why I watch Michael Bay's Transformers movies. I don't watch it to see how Sam enters the gents restroom and someone else who comes in thinks he's in a cubicle having sex with another man. Nor am I interested in seeing Sam's parents trying to be funny because let's get real, they're not.
The acting of this movie is also terrible. Though I'd give it some extra points for completing Sam's arc, I'd also deduct some points for not showing Mikaela. She was the only human character I was interested in looking at ^_^. Even the Transformers act in a very campy manner. The villain of this movie looks like a discount version of The Fallen. And as usual the fight later shifts to Optimus Prime and Megatron, making the villain, once again, completely useless.
There's not a single thing for which I'd want to rewatch this movie. It only stands among a sloppy series, plus it's the part where the franchise starts failing until Bumblebee came to rescue, so there's absolutely no reason to watch it. It's so forgettable I had to watch Honest Trailers and Cinemasins just to remember what happened in it. And even then I couldn't remember half the things.… Expand

I mean, compared to the previous films, which concluded the plot nicely, the ending here didn't seem to me to be very good, I would even say a little bit cut off, as if there was still something missing. What to add. An action movie with a capital A without a deeper plot. If you're looking for explosions at every corner, you probably won't go wrong.

I was 8 years old when I first saw this in 2011, and it brought back a lot of memories. I am a huge Transformers fan and I recall a lot of details from this film. I remember the toys and the memories I had with others. I still enjoy the other films, but this is one that stands out the most and I will never forget it. It astounds me much more that it is one of the highest-grossing films of all time, with making almost 1.2 billion dollars in the box office despite a "low" budget of 195 million dollars. I had no idea what to expect after Revenge of the Fallen, but this caught me completely off guard. Everything in Dark of the Moon is out of this world, the characters, the musical score, the story, the mystery, the action, the intensity, everything compelled me. You need to see this movie and when you do you'll find out something that you definitely never saw coming, I know I never did.… Expand

Transformers Dark of the Moon: Now this is much better. First off yes this one is a better movie than the last because more action, most of the comedy sticks and because all the humans are awesome in it too.

First off yes this one is a better movie than the last because more action, most of the comedy sticks and because all the humans are awesome in it too. Shia is still here and he probably does one of his best performances in these movies, but Megan Fox is gone but she is replaced by another hot girl don’t know her name don’t care she is hoooooooooooot. Peter Cullen is still Optimus Prime and he does more stuff in this. The final battle is one of those scenes that is so awesome to watch because of how **** and utterly badass the whole thing is for real Prime is taking on multiple threats with one arm and kills Megatron. Once again the movie uses practical explosions which is amazing, the stunt work is also really cool but sometimes doesn’t make since because some humans look like they get smacked so hard by the Transformers they go flying and then get back up like nothing happens like for real. The cinematography is still really good but the shaky cam is still very bad to look at. But overall this is so much better watch it, the movie is on Hulu.… Expand

I wish there was more action because the movie starts weak with a lot of dumb dialogue, but some fights in the second half are honestly great.

In conclusion, watch it if you only want to witness 3D, robots, attractive chicks, and explosions. If you watch movies to see a good tale with developing characters and to get some cinematic value. This is nothing new.

I think the story is amazing. It is my favourite movie. It is thrilling, the battles are really good. I think the movie is as good as the other Transformers. The villain is very charismatic.
