It has its ups and downs

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2014)

To begin this is an extreme down-grade from the first two. I don't know about everyone else, but I LOVED the first two. Watching the third one once again I appreciate it MORE then I did the FIRST time I watched it. But, this is because I understand it a LITTLE bit more watching ti the second time.
I find this third installment extremely hard to keep up with. I take my eyes of the screen for 1 minute and suddenly they (the main characters) are no longer where they were and are some how in danger or out of danger.
This movie feels like they tried to jam a whole lot of information in one movie, they mention one idea, and that's it. They mention it ONCE, and so you are left behind thinking "What, explain again?". I still don't even know what the hell they were all fighting about. Something about something. It feels like it should have been TWO MOVIES, but then you think "NOPE, I will not watch this thing stall out into bullshit".
There are however some EPIC scenes. These scenes just keep you glued to the screen, even though you have no idea what is going on, and you're still wondering why everyone is fighting for, these scenes MAKE the movie.
Another great aspect are once again the creative and new designs of Aliens, weapons and gadgets. As one said in the film (no spoiler, just a quote) "Why do all the Decepticons get all the good stuff?" very true. It is extremely fun to see all these new unique Auto-bots, they are characters you just love.
As a fan it is hard to get attached to this new girl... I can see they try to enforce their love (I'm not into Romances, but!) BUT they get it right. Although it would have been nice for a change of personality, maybe a girl with a different body type, something different. But, it worked. I did miss seeing Mikaela (Megan Fox) I just loved her in the last two.
There isn't much comedy relief, and if there is you simply don't understand it as much because you really understand the plot. But it has its moments.
I GAVE THIS FILM A SIX (perhaps 6 and a half if I could). The first two were worthy of a 7-8. But this one lacked almost everyone that was good about the first two. It JUST CONTINUED ON AND ON. You get to the point where you think "Omg just finish already, get to the point". It was a drag. BUT it DOES have its MOMENTS. In every 'Transformers' film Sam has a problem. Number 1 was getting a girlfriend. Number 2 was saying 'I love you' and number 3 is getting a job. At least they kept that idea going.
Good film. Unfortunately the writers rushed it a bit.
Also, how do they procreate? I understand they're Robots... but they could clarify how they get the solid mental to change into them. PERHAPS in the future they will make a WHOLE FILM about the Auto-bots and Decepticons. No humans, just these two rivals battling on unknown planets. That's always fun.
