Transformers: Dark of the Moon - 7/10
Although I was disappointed with the second part (loved the first one) I had good expectations with this one. And it didn't disappoint much.
Whatever was the plot , it really doesn't matter cause no one goes to Transformers for it's story(and those who do comes out disappointed) And that was the biggest problem with the film. It takes itself way too seriously and wastes a lot of time setting up the plot in first half. The human scenes are the low-point of the movie and a lot of such flab should've been cut out. Cmon, I did not pay to watch Shia LaBeouf act. At 2h30 the film does feel long and a bit tiring in the first half.
But like the previous Transformer movies, the payback comes in the 2nd half where the larger-than-life action unfolds. And in that regards, I was well satisfied.
There is a lot of action in the movie and personally I feel it was the best of the lot. One of my biggest problem with the previous films were the ShackyCam effect and ultra close ups during the fight scenes where it was hard to follow what's goin on.
Thankfully its so much better in this movie. The action scenes are super duper fun to watch and it goes for a long enough time to fulfill your appetite.
The 3D effects were the best I've seen . The transformers look fantastic and the 3D adds weight to them. Some of the shots (especially one with skydiving) is stunning to watch.
If you have watched Michael Bay movies previously, then you know what to expect. He will try to create a meaningful story and fail. He will try to give the films an epic feel and fail. He will try to put witty one-liners and emotional scenes in between and fail. But his success comes in creating some of the most fantastic action sequence ever caught(or rendered) on camera. And in this regard, he has outdone himself this time.
