When a mysterious Cybertronian spacecraft called the Ark is discovered on the Moon, the Autobots and Decepticons race to claim its secrets. The ship contains Sentinel Prime, Optimus Prime’s predecessor, whose resurrection sets off a chain of events that threaten Earth.

As the Decepticons launch an all-out invasion using technology from the Ark, alliances shift and loyalties are tested.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon Review - 7/10 Rating

Transformers: Dark of the Moon cranks up the action and spectacle with its biggest set pieces yet. The visual effects are top-tier, especially in the climactic Chicago battle, and the film leans hard into science fiction with a deeper dive into Cybertronian lore. While the plot can get tangled in its own chaos and character development takes a back seat, the movie delivers exactly what fans expect: robots, explosions, and edge-of-your-seat action.

We rated this a 7/10 for its stunning visuals and ambitious scale, though the storytelling could’ve used a more focused narrative. Still, it’s a solid ride for Transformers fans.
