Transformer: Dark of the Moon

First of all whoever does the voice for Optimus Prime has thee best voice of all time! Now with that out of the way. This movie was too long and sappy for my liking. It had it's good moments but ehh the movement of the film is too up and down. Plus too many gimmick points for me. The nerve watch, the "using the girl as bait," the "human traitor" really the list can go on and on. The fight sequences are good and the actually transforming never gets old. I didn't like anything about the storyline. They should have had Sam working with the Government from the start instead of him looking for a job and a cool but unnecessary John Malkovich and Ken Jeong cameos. Where is Unicron where is Ultra Magnus? Let's get some actual good story lines and prominent characters. The Rackers and the "Twins" and all the tiny weird other Transformers that serve as robot filler are a waste.

I applaud Mr. Bay for the way he cranks these things out but at some point they should chill a year and work on the content a little more. I how come Optimus can't fight or gets killed or nearly gets killed ever movie. That cloth Megatron was wrapped in was pretty awesome though. Shockwave was kinda impressive. I still don't really get what the Decepticons were trying to do though. I thought they were trying to rebuild Cybertron but then they were bringing Cyberton to Earth. Ahhhh stop the madness. Plus it was soooooooooooo longgggggggggggg. Good grief. They probably shot the whole 4th movie while I was in there. Shia kicking the hell out of the engine was the funniest part of the film.

Movie Review : Wall Street - Money Never Sleeps

This movie is a lot less devious than they made it seem in the trailers. Nonetheless its still pretty low down. It's a tale of revenge and power. Michael Douglas' character Gordon Gecko returns home from jail with nothing and is sort of befriended by his daughters boyfriend Jake played Shia LaBeouf. Jake wants revenge on a rival for the kinda death of his mentor and Gordon has the inside scoop. They play around with 100 Million dollars for about 2/3's of the film the love story the reconcile then it ends. You know though, this movie could have been better I'm just not so sure how. The money and seeing how money flows in the World is inspiring, the acting was good it was just missing something that made it special. Sidenote: The Barton Perreira glasses that Douglas had on in the film were amazing!

This is a sequel in a way, but it isn't a movie that you have to see the first one to get and it doesn't make you want to see the first one. I'm OK with not seeing the first movie even if I should, even if it's better than this one.
