Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)

Hazel's
Rating: 2/5
Review: For me, this is the worst Transformers movie in the series. Yes the graphics was totally awesome but the story was too cliche and the dialogue between Shia and the new girl is too corny. I like Megan Fox better, she has more attitude. I guess too much attitude that she got kicked out of the Transformers franchise... tsk, tsk, tsk.

Reviews

"Transformers 2 was only worth watching for Megan Fox and some of the robots. I guess we're just down to the robots, now." - Lewis C

"The look of the movie is worth five stars, but when you stir in a one-star script, you end up somewhere in the middle." - Clem Bastow, The Vine

"Admittedly better than its predecessor, Michael Bay still hasn't learnt that impressive action sequences don't make up for woeful acting and no character development." - Anthony O'Connor, FILMINK (Australia)

"Bay has delivered another empty spectacle that is overlong and mostly tedious." - Thomas Caldwell, Cinema Autopsy

"A very long mess that's embarrassingly devoid of gut level thrills." - Catherine Bray, Film4

"These Transformer movies are nonsense, of course, but they allow Bay and his team to push the envelope as far as movie technology is concerned and at least you feel get a sense of the shock and awe of giant hulking metal creatures clashing." - Baz Bamigboye, Daily Mail [UK]

"Transformers: Dark of the Moon may not be a great film, but it is largely great fun. ... It's nice to see the Transformers exit the screen (at least for now) on a high rather than low note." - Jim Vejvoda, IGN Movies

"[It] might struggle to equal the sheer exhilaration of Bay's 2007 trilogy-starter, but it's a whole lot more coherent and fulfilling than Revenge Of The Fallen." - Nell Smith, Total Film

"Transformers: Dark of the Moon is a fantastic feast of all-action entertainment... the first big summer blockbuster is one worth catching." - Mark Adams, Daily Mirror [UK]

Reviews

"Hardly a scene goes by that isn't visually striking or kinetically thrilling, and all of it enhanced by 3-D." - Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

"This emotionally resonant, character-driven, action-packed sequel is awesome!" - Susan Granger, SSG Syndicate

"The film marks the amazing feature film directing debut by artist-animator Jennifer Yuh." - James Verniere, Boston Herald

"No, we're not talking about Lord Voldemort and Harry Potter, although it does feel that way early on in the animated Kung Fu Panda 2." - Nancy Churnin, Dallas Morning News

"A fleeter, funnier beast than its 2008 predecessor." - Nick Schager, Village Voice

"The freshness and novelty that made the original film such a kick back in 2008 has been, well, kicked to bits." - Christy Lemire, Associated Press

"The kinder, gentler Kung Fu Panda 2 will surely try the patience of older children and fun-seeking parents." - Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail

"Like that kung pao chicken at the back of your fridge, none of it's quite as crisp the second time around." - Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
