When a mysterious event from Earth’s past erupts into the present day it threatens to bring a war to Earth so big that the TRANSFORMERS alone will not be able to save us.

It is enough to expect with the Transformer movies and with most of Michael Bay’s action epics is a Big Loud Action Movie. Transformers 3: Dark of the moon like the other movies in the trilogy is a deeply humanistic movie, in the sense that humans have what it takes to survive and overcome an alien invasion. With most movie franchises, it is easy for them to lose; their ‘artistic’ feel as they change director with each film. Of course, this has not happened with Transformers 3 as Michael Bay has directed the entire trilogy and the band Linkin Park has been involved with the soundtracks for the movies. However, I really have to wonder was it necessary to release a 3D version of the movie.
Patrick Dempsey had an interesting role as one of the villains of the movie, though sadly I do not think that he embraced the role with enough vigor he seemed to come off as more of a wet blanket then a believable movie villain.
