Ok, im sick and tired of movie critics bashing anything with special effects combined with exhillerating cinematography(mainly every Bay movie). Dark of the Moon is awesome. Pure and simple. The story, though nothing mindbending or complicated, is still a good story. Its fun to follow along with it, especially if your big on conspiracy. and theres nothing wrong with the way Bay tells a story, especially this one. You just need to keep up with it. All the new autobots are at least given just a little bit to do this time, versus how in Revenge where Sideswipe just jumped over a car in the begining and that was it. Speaking of Revenge, DOTM is a MAJOR improvement. Its just more complete. The human characters are still charming in their own ways, and Rosey IS better than Fox, so top complainin. Anyway, all the new robots, Sentinel Prime, The Wreckers, Dreads, Que, Brains, ect are all cool additions and for the most part are all needed for the story. And the humor, well, its funny. thats all there is to it. And that finale in Chicago is totally awesome by the way. Even though some of the decepticons are very underused, when it came around to it, it was satisfying for the most part to see them all brawl it out. Id give this movie four and a half stars if i could, but oh well. Im sure the special features on the upcoming deluxe edition will be completely awesome too. ill just honeslty say for now that its the best and most entertaining one of the bunch.
