Transformers Dark of the Moon Review

ByM Tek

The Master of Disaster and control chaos has done it again in his final installment of Transformers. Directed by Michael Bay and Produced by Steven Spielberg, the trilogy ends in a big bang that the two can only deliver. Set a few years after the end of the second film, we find the heroes, the Autobots on Earth who have heard little of their enemies, the Decepticons since Megatron and his forces were defeated in Egypt and went into hiding. For the time being, the Autobots continue to assist US forces in covert missions while they wait for their enemy to make their next move.

Meanwhile we learn that the space race of the 1960's was in secret a mission to investigate a crash Autobot ship and the nature of what was left of the vessel. After finding out about this mission through a raid that show the world leaders were withholding information, it's a race to see what secrets lie in wait for both sides as well as if there is more than what meets the eye. As with the previous two films, there is more than enough action to go around for a summer block buster and out of the three, Bay may have went all out for a finale.

As for the script, it is certainly better than the second one and has fewer fillers in the sense of comic relief which was good since this one nearly tops a run time of three hours. The special effects of course is without a doubt well done and may again outdo the second one, but some may wonder if the focus on the special effects may weaken the film in the sense of story presentation. Once again, we have a returning cast including Shia LeBeouf (Sam Witwicky) Josh Duhamel (Lennox) John Turturro (Simmons) Kevin Dunn and Julie White (Ron and Judy Witwicky). Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (Carly Spencer) plays Sam new girlfriend and compare to Megan Fox, there wasn't really anything different between the two characters in the area of supporting the main character to provide drama for the story.

One thing to look forward in this final installment is the search for true honor for the Autobots and the human allies as the war for Earth may lead to its darkest hour as well as treason within their own ranks. Final verdict for this film, Michael Bay may have redeem himself from some of the negative comments about the second film and has put a fitting end for the trilogy.

Final Verdict 3 out of 5 stars.
