Entertaining than Revenge of The Fallen.

Rating: 7/10 (9 July 2011)

Upon entering the theater, I was really hesitant on seeing this film; mainly due to the fact that Revenge of The Fallen received very negative reviews. However, and I'm really shocked to say this, I actually enjoyed Dark of The Moon. Sure it's no masterpiece by any means, but what do you expect from a director whose only talent is making things blow up minus character development, plot, and dialog.
Dark Of the Moon really is the best film in the series, surpassing ROTF by many a long shot. It's story is better than the first two films, though that's not saying a lot when Bay for no apparent reason at all, inserts random shots of sexual innuendo that really serves no purpose at all in the film and scenes that are totally unnecessary; particularly the antique car and bathroom scene. But the battle scenes between the robots is really impressive and I'm shocked to admit that I was on the edge of my seat watching it all.
But still, some characters are seriously overlooked; especially the villains Megatron, Starscream, and Shockwave. Sentinel Prime, really, was the only one who had the most development out of them all. As better than Revenge of the Fallen may be, Dark of the Moon still suffers from the same problems that 1 and 2 had: No fully fleshed out characters and plot. Dark of The Moon has a plot, but it's really skin deep as far as the twists and turns go and because of the fact alone, the emotional attachment is drained significantly.
I will say that Dark of The Moon is better than Revenge of The Fallen, but it's not exactly the game changer of the whole Transformers mythos. And judging by the box-office business it's doing in theaters, it's safe to say that a 4 installment will inevitably be made. Hopefully by then it will have a better director and screenwriter along with better acting and plot.
