Some things never change

Rating: 7/10 (23 July 2011)

There's only one way to put this...
These Michael Bay Transformers movies are a triumph of special effects over substance and common sense, and once you're used to them, it's almost criminal how easily these movies are forgotten.
I give Dark of the Moon 7 out of 10 if just because of how much a sucker I am for these effects. If you're not big on this sort of thing, but instead prefer details such as a coherent plot, comedy that's not adolescent in nature and a well-paced story, you can drop that number dramatically.
It's all subjective, and it depends what you like, but I'm only a fan because I like seeing big robots beat the crap out of each other. If you're not, I wouldn't touch these movies with a ten-foot pole.
