I’m pretty sure that sometime during pre-production on this, someone sent Michael Bay a wing-suiting clip. And a picture of a gull-wing Mercedes. And a skinny blonde. And some conspiracy tapes. The whole thing feels tacked together from start to finish, which should, I know, come as no surprise at all.
I detested the slapstick, comedy robots from the first film, and avoided the second, but the vintage moon-landing footage in the teaser announcement for this suckered me back.
It might be the best of the three. There’s plenty of exquisitely executed set pieces, and McDreamy makes for an enjoyable foe, but it’s still all pretty terrible and forgettable and what the hell was Malkovich doing?

Saying this is the best of the Transformer movies is like saying prostate is the best of the cancers.

Easily, and this isn't saying much, the best of the series. It's a bit more straight forward as far as plot in concerned. More of its jokes land. And the action finale is uninterrupted, so that all the chaos can play out more cleanly.

Everything the second installment should have been, but still lacking the heart and soul of the first.

What is there to say? It's a Michael Bay movie: A convoluted mess of a plot, lame forced humor throughout, you can't tell what's going on half the time, and it's far longer than it needs to be (the third-act/Chicago battle by itself feels about an hour too long!) BUT... shit gets blowed up real good, and that's all you really go into a movie like this expecting to see.
Set your expectations accordingly and enjoy the mayhem. -
This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

For all the faults Michael Bay’s third Transformers film has, the limits of 3D force Bay into a more reserved filming approach, so at least the film is a coherent mess. The story makes some sense, and the double-crossing, Cold War-style theme is playfully built upon, leading to a mammoth end climax that, ultimately, gets a little long in the tooth by the end, filling an hour of the epic 155-minute runtime. Unfortunately, Shia LaBeouf in his third outing gives his worst performance, exposing newcomer Rosie Huntington-Whitley’s acting talents or lack thereof, while far too many actors are brought in to provide silly comic-relief that clashes with the dark tone that hangs over the film.

Even though its a bit better then Revenge of the Fallen, It still isn't as great as the first one. Unfortunatly, the hot girl in this movie is worse then Fox even though Fox was already bad. Labeouf continues his stuttering problems while Bay keeps adding action to every scene (some of it was interesting, I will give it that). The script isn't great, The plot isn't as confusing as the 2nd one but its okay and the filming makes me dizzy. Better then the 2nd, worse then the 1st.

Still just "dumb fun" at best, but thankfully nowhere near as dumb as the second film. The action is better, even if the acting isn't, and the plot is at least moderately entertaining. Visually, the film is a real treat, at least when seen large. If you're viewing on a small home screen, dock a full star from the score. Read full review.
