Sam Witwicky and his new girlfriend, Carly, join the fray when the evil Decepticons renew their longstanding war against the Autobots. Optimus Prime believes that resurrecting ancient Transformer Sentinel Prime, once the leader of the Autobots, may lead to victory. That decision, however, has devastating consequences. The war appears to tip in favor of the Decepticons, leading to a climactic battle in Chicago.

Critics Consensus

Its special effects -- and 3D shots -- are undeniably impressive, but they aren't enough to fill up its loud, bloated running time, or mask its thin, indifferent script.

So how does Michael Bay justify making a third? Why, by making the film a little dense as to plot, and giving it perhaps the longest climax ever in Hollywood history.

There ought to be a way to make a live-action film about giant shapeshifting robots that's either a) fun or b) awesome... It's blatantly evident that Bay can only just about manage b) long enough to provide the shots needed to cut into a trailer.

Never mind the ridiculous subtitle. It's really just a precursor for what is to come from the rest of the movie. And Transformers: Dark of the Moon doesn't even try to play down its idiocy.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon is a flawed film, yes, but it’s not nearly as bad as Revenge of the Fallen and takes major steps into the franchise.

Are we forgetting compelling humans actors in this? Apparently so, but you won't find one intelligent or compelling in "Transformers: Dark of the Moon." They are all thin, dumb, and forgettable.

The worst of the 3, I can't even watch this in one sitting it's so bad. So many people on here have horrible taste, don't know good writing or are paid for their reviews, because anything over 3 stars makes no sense for this junk.

I watched it again today, its a good movie, but the new girl friend sucks, not half as cute and no where near as good an actress, really messed up the overall power of the presentation

5.8/10 The movie has a lot of great things going for it: A stronger, more interesting and involved plot with higher stakes, a more serious tone, an interesting set of twist villain characters and larger action. On the other hand, it also has the most boring/unlikable Sam relationship storyline in the series, the big Chicago war climax focuses very little on the title characters and the plot itself requires numerous retcons and asinine story telling leaps to justify itself.

Once again, it kept the things I've like about this franchise, and its kept the things I don't like. Although this one felt a little more confusing, plus it continued to NOT move the franchise forward.

Uma ficção científica aceitável que peca pelo argumento fraco e pela duração exagerada, mas que se salva graças aos efeitos visuais inovadores e à batalha final absolutamente épica em Chicago.
