Review: Michael Bay shows once more that he is the unchallenged master of urban destruction on screen. Maybe he is having a contest with his buddy Roland Emmerich. This is a good movie to watch when you don't want to use your brain, except if you watch it in 3D, then it hurts. I had a worse memory of it from the cinema, but it is actually OK, maybe better than the second. There are even more comic characters which tells you of the non-serious intentions of Bay: Sam, his parents, Turturro excellent as usual, and now the head of NSA played by Frances McDormand that you liked in Fargo. The weaknesses of the movie are that it is too long, confused at times, fails to emphasize the stakes, and replays the usual stories of good guys, bad guys, girlfriend, family etc... Fun fact: the Blu-ray edition I bought comes in a flat box that transforms into a robot! Why didn't they think of that before?! |
