Transformers 3

[Marius Delphus]

Aint it Cool News claims in an advanced review that Dark of the Moon is the best of the three Transformers movies by Michael Bay.

The second half is.

I felt it was just as confusing and loud as the first two. Glad I didn't pay for it.

I enjoyed it.

There were some kinda glaring pacing errors towards the end ("WTF Bumblebee's captured? But he was just with the humans not two minutes ago!"), and

Spoiler

Sentinel's heel-face turn was kinda out of left field

even if I hadn't had it spoiled on AICN, and the entire Decepticon plot really only works if you squint and try and not think too hard about it.

But, it was fun, mostly-mindless enjoyment, and the 3d work was really well-done. I also enjoyed the old series references, like Megatron knocking the statue out of the Lincoln Memorial and sitting in the throne.

I went in expecting it to be a headache-laden pile of garbage and was pleasantly surprised - it was just a pile of garbage.

One man's garbage is another geek's treasure

The meatbags were more annoying in this movie that the other movies, even though 3 was better than 2 overall.

Too long, plenty of stuff could have been left on the cutting room floor.

I didn't like it and, as a Star Trek fan, I was really disappointed that Leonard Nimoy would sell his greatest line like that.

I'm curious, what line? Please spoil this for me so I spend less time pondering the movie.

I enjoyed it. I don't expect anything but action and explosion from Bay and that's what I got.

I'll go out on a limb and say either "That's illogical" or "Live long and prosper".

<--- still haven't seen the movie.

It was about as bad as I expected it to be.

The plot made ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE.

The final section was pretty awesome in terms of giant fighting robots.

The main question is

Spoiler

why the Decepticons needed the space bridge to bring the other 200 Decepticons in, when it's clear Transformers can travel in space, and also what the hell all those guys buried on the Moon have been doing for the previous two films?

So long as you don't consider the plot, and just enjoy the fighting, it's OK.
