Transformers The Dark of the Moon

What can I say about this movie that has already not been said. I thought it was alright. I respect Michael Bay as a director, but I don't think he did these movies justice. I loved the first Transformers. For me it had all the things I love, great action, good story, etc. The thing that did it for me in the first one was it felt real like I could relate to whats going on and I could believe it. This movie seemed so far fetched, I know its just a movie, but I would like to feel some sort or realism. I didn't care much for the Carley character all she was there for was sex appeal but it sells so. I also didn't care for about the first 50 minutes of this movie. There were so many side characters that were completely unnecessary. John Turturro, Ken Jeong, John Malkovich just to name a few wasted actors. I love John Malkovich, but he is so useless in this. Now I did not hate this movie I'm just picking at the things I personally did not like. The action scenes were great. The thing about the action was it wasn't memorable for me. In T1 the action segment that blew me away was when they blew up the bus on the highway. In T2 the forest scene. But in this there was nothing really there for me to remember. I don't really know who the director was trying to target with these movies. The old school fans of Transformers will probably not like these movies because they do stray from the original tone and atmosphere of the cartoons. And I don't know if this is supposed to be a kids movie because of the little transformers. There are plenty of things to find negative but it was okay.
