Review of Bumblebee (2018) by Jaime L — 23 Dec 2018
Never thought I'd see a decent Transformers again but I guess once you ditch Michael Bay the quality goes up immediately. Now I can't say I loved this film but I got some enjoyment out of it and I'll take what I can get after the complete dumpster fires this whole series has been (other than the decent original).
I could follow the action and there wasn't the same constant terrible jokes and bad dialogue. Of course this just made Bumblebee not completely blow. I still found the story to be lackluster and frankly the actions of the military was absurd and I really felt no emotion for either Bumblebee or Hailee Steinfeld's human character.
In the end I suppose I may only be giving this film a positive rating simply because compared to what has come before this film didn't outright suck. Suppose that's an achievement in itself though.
