Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon (2011) - Film Review



Steven Spielberg and director Michael Bay are back with their action-packed CGI-filled Transformers franchise. In the third installment titled Dark of the Moon, both the plot and its visual effects improves compared to its prior chapter, Transformers 2.

Shia Labeouf returns as the adorkable Sam Witwicky, who is now struggling to find a job in the real world, and also sporting a hot new girlfriend, newcomer Rosie Huntington-Whiteley who has no problem flaunting her flawless looks and body as Carly Spencer. Gone is Megan Fox and a basic Autobots versus Decepticons storyline, and its place is nicely executed twist to the 1961 Man on the Moon NASA mission.

The gorgeous cars, particular the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG that Rosie sports, and the action-packed robot battle scenes were sheer perfection. Furthermore, a few unexpected plot twists in the film easily made it a more favorable presentation than its previous installments.

Though I am not entirely convinced that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a good actress, she sure delivers in the looks department. Girl sure know show to flaunt her beauty in the movie. Shia Labeouf delivers as Sam, and the supporting cast of Patrick Dempsey and Josh Duhamel also makes for an enjoyable experience.

In conclusion, while not exactly intellectual or an inspiring movie, Transformers: Dark of the Moon was a fun and visually stunning movie, that is worth your extra $4 for those pair of 3-D glasses.
