Review of Transformers: The Last Knight (2017) by Rhiannon B — 25 Oct 2017

Sheesh..... what the heck did I just watch?!

I have no idea what's going on in these movies any more half the time. Their big, bright and well animated (except some of the fight scenes) have pretty good music and generally have a somewhat decent plot but this one? I just seemed like a disjointed mess.

Again we have an over blown male lead, the American army messing up, useless side characters, Bumblebee and a new female lead to provide eye candy. However she's pretty useless and is nothing more than the cliche girl who thinks she happy in life but is bothered by others because she's not married or has a hidden secret to er and needs a guy to help her get there. Why is it hardly any female lead characters are secure and comfortable with their lives, and arent judged for not having a husband/kids or whatever.

Ah well it least it had some good animation and amused my nephew. So some people might like it I guess. The plot is hard to follow at times though and makes no sense when compared to the earlier titles in the series. So it will leave you questioning things if your the type who likes transformers or just notices plot holes.
