Midtown Manhattan crowd - real people, not movie reviewers, except for one - stood patiently in line for a 0:15 screening of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, the third in Michael Bay's ear, eye and large-scale series based on the Hasbro toy line robot. When the function began, half an hour late, the public has shown a penchant for the material to remember every look of the club-friendly yellow car Bumblebee, not with a loud voice, but with polite applause, as if, after a strong burst Wimbledon. A few cries greeted leveling IMAX 3-D Chicago. And when the movie ended about an hour before dawn, leave a few fans cheering decent. They sounded less like red meat that Fanboys connoisseurs to wine tasting.
The reaction of the critics "was more shy. Denounced the first Transformers (2007) and its sequel Revenge of the Fallen (2009), which together earned more than $ 1.5 billion in worldwide box office. They were accused of Bay have not all the classics (perhaps archaic) evidence of consistency of the narrative and staging. That sends the camera in virtually run all the time, even those split-second hard, and he seems to think that they coincide - the location of a fixed point of view, a law that the directors have followed since the first features - is for the weak. Reviewers of the first two films were so upset by the eroticized violence Bay, your car lust and carnage, its non- stop assault of sound and film, who saw his success in apocalyptic terms, as the end of the films that have once loved and the triumph of a new virulent strain: robotulism.
T3 writer Ethan Kroeger imitate the typical criticism of a film of Bay, where he has John Malkovich as a patron of the hero Epicurean said: "You fall into an abyss of life suck. This is a visual and visceral therefore treason. "(See all 25 all-time best animated film.)
With the T3, many reviewers have retreated from the previous attitude of bewildered horror rid of it. I am with them. I admit that, for better or worse, Bay is the soul of a new car, a poet of film post-human, CEO of Hollywood military-entertainment center. T3 is the film corresponds to the 80's thrash-metal concert (not Megadeth, but Megatron), where bits are inserted spoken in the action scenes of the show as the singer mumbled comments between songs. And yes, the Bay gives Autobots Optimus Prime and the other good relationships with blue eyes and the evil Decepticons Megatron knows red-eye appearance of fascism, but a useful way: what else is a novice viewers may be separated? It 's all part of the great director, lascivious vision - what might be called the Bay-watch.
Plot synopsis: Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf), blah blah, Optimus and Megatron knocking heads again, new Autobot named Sentinel (voiced by Leonard Nimoy), secret government project run by a bossy woman (Frances McDormand, more or less playing Hillary Clinton if she ran the CIA, and if you hate Hillary Clinton), new girlfriend Carly (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, whose generic blond sexiness makes her both a fembot and Playboy Femlin), big bot battle that devastates downtown Chicago (notably the aptly named Wacker Drive), blah blah, bring in the U.S. military and somehow let Sam command them to save the world — if he can first get Carly out of that Decepticon car that is trying to fondle her with its grabby tentacles.
