Best of the Transformers movies

Rating: Null/10 (24 December 2011)

Third installment of the Transformers series is much like the first two, but the story is more interesting.
Premise of the story is that NASA sent Apollo space crafts to explore crash landed Transformer space craft containing an elder Transformer named Centinnel. They found five "pillars" that is part of the technology to teleport matters. But it was a trap. Decepticon was there first, and they stole most of the pillars before Nasa got to them. They left Centinnel there because Optimus Prime was only Transformer that could revive Centinnel that in turn can operate the pillars.
Shallow story is a hallmark of director Michael Bay's movies, and this one is no exception. It's all about wham !, Bam !, rock um, sock um battle between the robots. It's made in grand scale, but if you expect any depth, you're watching the wrong movie. There're some cruelty as was seen in the previous Transformer movie, that I really didn't care for. But I could see that they had to bring this in to keep the story going.
The movie is best of all the Transformer movies, but it's still not much more than an expensive cartoon.
