A Perfect Addition to the Transformers Trilogy.

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2011)

As a fan of the first, and even second, Transformers film, I had mixed expectations going in to see this third entry.
I don't believe anyone's mind will be blown away by this movie, but I don't understand how anyone can walk away disappointed either. It's Transformers.
Michael Bay is a visionary director, and sometimes he gets carried away in his work. The second movie was relative immature. This one has a good balance; brief enjoyable humor underscored by a sinister undertone.
With Dark Of The Moon, there are moments where you'll wonder, "why is this in here?" or say "he (Bay) could have done better than that." But the hairs on your arms will be raised, and you might even get all emotional inside at moments, because when the movie does try to sock you in the heart, it does so with a crippling blow.
As with the first two films, there is room for improvement. But as a whole, this is a perfect addition to the trilogy, and I say it's well worth watching.
