Transformers 3 Movie

Post by 80sJunkie »

Pretty much more of the same, so I loved it. Even if the movie had zero plot, I'd like it for the vehicles, explosions and giant robots fighting. Seeing the first 30-seconds of the new girlfriend on a five-story Imax screen didn't hurt either.

I did miss iconic planes like the B1 and the Blackbird, though you do see other cool stuff. Nothing as big as an aircraft carrier this time, but seeing the building fall down was incredible. (Not a spoiler since it's in the trailer.)

Did the movie make a lot of sense? Absolutely not. It's really just a series of moments and scenes, but man does Michael Bay get to what I want to see on the big screen for a summer action movie. Plot be damned!

I felt the same way.

And the new girlfriend was hotter than Megan Fox......

I thought the transformers looked more realistic in the movie than the new girlfriend :)

It was a fun movie. I never saw the second movie, but my daughters wanted to see this movie. I thought it was good, but they thought it was great, which was awesome. They really enjoyed the movie.

I did think this was the best 3D movie I seen since Avatar. It was really worth the extra $3.5 per person to see it in 3D.

It's $5 per person for 3D where I am.....we skipped the gimmick & saw it in 2D.

Wow.

I think I have given up seeing 3D movies unless it gets good buzz with the 3D.

I watched the movie and I thought it was beautiful visually. I saw it at an "IMax" theater, and I thought the 3D was awesome. I would have cut the building scene as it went a little too long, and brought little to movie. I disagree with Bob I thought the new girlfriend was a downgrade or at best more of the same.

I go to the movie for visual splendor and this movie delivered in spades.
