This one was a massive improvement over the second one. I'm calling bullshit over the "lack of plot" criticism, but halfway through, they do chuck it in favor of ridiculous scenes with the lame ass human characters running through toppling buildings 9/11 style. And the ending was abrupt as fuck. Had they sliced maybe 35 minutes from the middle and maybe expanded on an ending that wasn't, and here's a spoiler, Optimus literally just shooting the two guys and deciding "...yep. We're done here" before Iridescent starts blaring, it'd have been great. As it was though, I enjoyed it.
Why didn't Sentinel take the Matrix? ;" He would've had an amazing tactical advantage with it in his possession ...
Except that happens far more often than you want to believe. If he's a joke for that reason, so is about every director, producer and studio out there.

Spielberg was the creative producer on board, so no doubt he's probably done it before as well. This isn't even the first time Bay has done this-- He recycled footage from Pearl Harbor in the first Transformers. At least they were his own movies. Can't say the same for the clips above. I don't understand what the problem is either. It neither distracts or takes away from anything in the movie. In fact many of you wouldn't have noticed had the wonders of the internet not pointed it out.
Transformers. Fuck yeah, all three of them. Lighten up guys, it's the movie equivalent of listening to blink-182 it's fun.
the last one was good but now waiting for its next part to release. It is surely going to be rocking all the way.
Lots of action, yet no suspense. I think I had more fun watching the digimon movie. And all throughout all three movies, I am not convinced that there needed to be that stupid sam character and his useless eye candy damsel(s) anywhere in these films. In all three, the human characters felt shoehorned into this thing or given extra staying-alive powers to stay relevant. The soldiers make sense, because they matter in a plot where robots blow each other up. Romance movie GTFO. And if I wanted a romance movie, it wouldn't be from Michael Bay. I'd go to someone who has plot. "Good artists borrow, great artists steal" Everybody does it. Originality is an illusion, and will always be, since humans only have six basic emotions that mix and match, and thus will gravitate towards the same things. It's why TVtropes even exists.
This. But not that. The Transformers movies give me my robot kicking ass fix that I want for the most part. I don't go watch them for the story line, or else I know I will be disappointed.
Just got back from it. So horrible. So, so bad. The production is the only thing worth watching. That was truly stunning and I'm glad I saw it for that reason alone.
Just got back from seeing the flick. Tired as hell, so I won't bother with a lengthy review. - Not as good as the first film - Improvement over the second film - Thumbs down for the abrupt beginning and end to the invasion - Lacked closure
Watched Dark of the Moon over the past weekend, it felt boring and slow. Optimus was a fucking bad ass though. One thing that really pissed me off was SPOILER Spoiler they never showed bumblebee and friends get taken hostage, it was like oh hey guys we caught the autobots out of nowhere /SPOILER I'd give it a 6/10, also the iridescent piano intro was used way too many times throughout the film, like 5 or 6. Killed that shit.
transformers 3 was so epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! people say that there is going to be a transformers 4 please tell me if i am terribly misinformed
