Love the visual effects, hate everything else...

Rating: 1/10 (15 August 2014)

Falling buildings, a very hot girlfriend and a lot of running, jumping, diving, falling and shooting. That's what sums up this utter piece of crap.
I never ever saw a movie this bad in my entire life. Even the superb visual effects couldn't cover up the lack of storyline and well constructed dialogs.
Maybe I can say something about the acting skills? Nope. There simply were none. It's really sad, because Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is one of the hottest girls I've ever seen on screen (at least when she doesn't purse her lips trying to look hot).
Overall it's a pity Michael Bay was in charge, because I remember the transformers cartoons as having an interesting storyline where you could really connect with the characters. In this movie, I couldn't.
Dark of the Moon lacks those same characters. Bay didn't even try to give them personality like the cartoons did. The action was to rapid, the scenes to short to get to know them on a deeper level.
And yes, even the action was horrible. As I said, the scenes were really short, jumping from one scene to the next without waiting, without explaining, without giving the watcher something to understand. I still don't know what was behind the dark of the moon... Something really creepy I think.
OK, I need to stop dissing this motion picture. The visual effects were at least great. But Dark of the Moon sucks on soooo many levels, I get angry every time I think about it. The creators of the cartoons didn't deserve this crap.
Please don't watch it!
