On Wednesday, Shia LaBeouf, Josh Duhamel, John Turturro, Tyrese Gibson and franchise newcomer Rosie Huntington-Whiteley star in Michael Bay's franchise Transformers: Dark of the Moon, in 3D.
On Friday comes Larry Crowne, a romantic comedy which Tom Hanks is a co-writer, co-producer, director and also stars alongside Julia Roberts.
See what The Hollywood Reporter's critics have to say about those films -- and others opening this weekend -- and find out how they’re expected to perform at the weekend box office.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon (on Wed.)
Bottom Line: Michael Bay delivers a techno spectacle that is spectacularly empty.

Crime After Crime
Bottom Line: A powerful and emotional story of protracted injustice backgrounded by a potentially even more fascinating account of entrenched corruption in the Los Angeles D.A.’s office.
