Review of Bumblebee (2018) by Noahpfister — 27 Feb 2019
Is Bumblebee the Transformers movie we've been waiting for? Yes. Plain and simple. Is it a perfect movie? No. Unfortunately not, as Bumblebee does suffer heavily from other downsides of previous Transformers movies.
..But that's also not really a bad thing here. While more focus is put onto the human characters, I found myself annoyed and yet intrigued. I actually cared what happened to them, I cared if they made it out okay.
This more human and personal story that this movie offers is quite fitting, and I found myself enjoying almost every single bit of it. The opening made me feel like I was watching the cartoon, which is already a sign that it's better than Bay's vision, and from then on, I had a blast.
Travis Knight is in fact the Last Knight that the previous movie spoke of as he has personally saved the Transformers franchsie from being an absolte ********* of ****. I'll keep this brief as I want to watch the movie again, so I'll simply say, watch it, then watch it again as it appears that while this is a prequel to the original Transformers movie, by the end, you realize something spectacular.
..they rebooted it. The next Transformers movie...will be good. And I gotta say, there's a bright future beyond the horizon of Cybertron, and I await to see what it brings. Also Dylan O'Brien is awesome as Bumblebee.
..even if it is for--like--ten seconds.
