Review of Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011) by Alekkolchak — 21 Jul 2011
You don't go into a Michael Bay movie worrying about the story, but wow, this one had plot holes you could drive a sentient semi trailer through. At times outright ignoring elements established in the first two movies- just don't think about it too much.
The new lead actress is a Victoria's Secret model with no acting experience, so we're not subtle about the whole "style over substance" concept. But most viewers only care about one thing only: Giant Robots Fighting.
And this delivers in that area. Bay now uses "bullet time" to make it clear which robot is fighting which, so he is learning, and you will walk out with your Giant Robot Fighting desire satisfied.
A popcorn flick that delivers mindless but fun, but if you're looking for the 2011 version of "Inception," this 'aint it.
