Too much for the eyes, too less for the brain (screen)

Rating: 4/10 (15 July 2011)

Those are the two great defects of this movie and they don't leave anything else to praise:
For my eyes, i maintain my objection from the previous two movies, that is to say the robots aren't not well designed because they are too much designed. Next, the filming doesn't match up because the abuse of close-up, cuts make the action unintelligible. There are precedents with big characters and Spielberg ("Jurassic Park") or Jackson ("King Kong") have more talent than Bay for the big size!
For my brain, after now two sequels, i still can't name the robots except the truck, the yellow car and the bad leader. How can the writers skip those basics? Here, like the two previous movie, it's about getting a lost artifact that would end the war forever. That's recycling. To be more precise, it would be hard because as usual, i lost the trail of the story. Worst, if the previous movies could be balanced between action and comedy, here the story of Shia is terminated in half hour.
The climax of the movie (attack in Chicago) is better handled than the terrible gunfight of the last movie in Pyramids but it feels bitter: The scene of the building collapse is really riveting but as everyone kills everyone it's hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys.
