worst of the three

Rating: 5/10 (24 September 2011)

After viewing this title, I really appreciated the first two Transformers. At least they have some comedy elements and some really tight schedule. But this last sequel? It didn't have any. What it has is cliché.
A cybertrone civil war should be mainly fought by cyber beings, the Transformers. But now it is fought on Earth, so human is everywhere in the scene. I just don't quite get that why Sam and his girl friend and some GI have to be caught in every crossfire and witness every destruction of the key Decepticon players. And this far-fetched human intervention is poorly mixed with the main line of the story, like some of side stories. Why they cast the fine actor Malkovich for such a nonsense negligible role? What is it about Sam's parents and job interviews and things? These made the movie into a two and a half hours Spagetti.
I am glad that Prime finally finished off Megatron in this Michael Bay's version of Transformers, so that Bay can't make any more Sequel and stop destroying my appetite for more.
