Peer: Transformers: Dark Moon [2011]

15-157mins-Action/Adventure/sci-fi-d. 29 June 2011

Our summer of sequels continue transformers returns to the big screen with their third appearance. After the rather disappointing Transformers: Revenge of Fallen, I must say that my hope was not particularly high for this one.

Dark Moon is set several years after the second film where Sam (Shia LaBeouf) is struggling to get a job and return his life to normal and yet this has still not stopped him from solved the most attractive girl in the city-Carly (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley). At the same time discover the Autobots to a Cybertronian spacecraft crash landed on the Moon during the 1960 's and race against the Decepticons to reach first and protect the secrets it holds. The two angle overlaps and voilà plot is born.

As always, Visual impress and is best in the franchise to date, but I eventually ask myself, what separates this from the previous two, and it led me to this answer-not so much of a difference at all. The Bay has upped the ante somewhat with respect to the amount of CGI he has side paging feature in the film, so expect more fighting, more action and whole lot more slowmo. While many will think much more action, I see it as a part of the problem, however. There are only so many times that I might be impressed by a vehicle turn to something else, in slow motion before it becomes repetitive and I felt I had reached my limit in this film.

Except for the first 10 minutes, which dealt with the space race of the 1960 's, it took a while for the movie to get started. For the last hour or so, however, I enjoy what the film had to offer when it took on a Black Hawk Down kind of persona during the battle scenes in the city.

Several questions I had: 157 minutes the film tends to pull more places and led to a somewhat hasty final scene, which should not have been; element comedy was greatly reduced, despite a cameo from Ken Jeong aka Mr Chow from The hangover; the new love interest impress not with her acting skills at all and was more than likely brought just as the token eye candy viewers, which she succeeded in; and most importantly, the plot had more holes in it than a Swiss cheese, being used as target practice at a shooting range. And it is an understatement. There have also been zero continuity between the trilogy of films so far that do not go well with me.

I was more impressed than I trøde, I would be, but as I said, the expectation had been lowered due to the extremely poor second film. I need to be careful here, because I think the impressive graphics has partially blinded me for the rest of the cracks that appear in the film. I can say is if you enjoyed the first film or as good visual then you will enjoy this one and if you do not have or want an involved and interesting plot that evolves and characters as the movie progresses then you get there here.

Rating: B-

The basic synopsis of the film is that there is found a spacecraft that has technology that could tilt the balance in the seemingly never ending date the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons on the moon. There is a great rush coming to this spacecraft and use technology to gain the upper hand. In the end, after the battle the climax on the Earth with all characters from the previous films involved (except for Megan Fox's character, Mikaela Banes, but let us not go into).

Like all the big budget action/adventure/sci-fi genre movie, the movie is packed with special effects and epic stunts. In fact, as is the current trend, there have been shot the film in 3D to make the effort and effect just a little bit more anti-Americanism and put you in the middle of the action. The film may not have a lasting cultural impact on our existence, but it is a great piece of entertainment to away, while an afternoon.

So will most of these movies, there is plenty of merchandise, which can be purchased. There are games, action figures and, most importantly for the purposes of this article under all circumstances, costumes.
