Movie: Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Basic Plot: Optimus Prime and pals are back and this time they fight Megatron (not Calvin Johnson) and Sentinel Prime who is voiced by Spock, I mean Leonard Nimoy.
I'm Okay With: The fact that I watched this movie despite the 2nd one being so terrible. The fact that the humans actually win a war against an alien race of nearly indestructible robots. The fact that Optimus Prime preaches brotherhood and not killing each other, but then goes on a killing spree where he cuts down ten bad guys in five seconds, then rips out Megatron's (not Calvin Johnson) robot spine and smashes his old mentor's head in with a giant ax. The fact that there is a scene towards the end of the movie where some of the humans parachute off of a building for absolutely no reason whatsoever other than to give Michael Bay a boner. The fact that Shia LeBouef's character dumps Megan Fox only to get another equally hot and way richer girlfriend.
I'm Not Okay With: In a scene towards the end of the movie, Shia LeBouef uses some sort of projectile-firing weapon against one of the bad guy robots which destroys that bad guy's eye. When the bad guy robot figures out his eye is missing, the robot then begins to writhe around in pain. Think about that for a minute. A robot in pain. WHAT?!?! How is that even possible? Sure, he could have some sort of program that registers pain, but when you are a nearly invincible robot, why in the hell would that robot want to write a piece of code in its software that would give it any sort of a weakness. Did the Terminator react when it was shot a million times? No, he said something like "I'll be back" and then kept on killing people. So, why would a Transformer want to program itself with a program for registering pain? It wouldn't, so why was this robot reacting like it was in pain? I am not okay with that.
