Movie Info & Cast

Synopsis

Oh you know, just your average “girl makes friends with her car, which is secretly an alien robot in disguise” story – with a twist! Set in 1987, Bumblebee is battle-worn and hiding out in a junkyard, where’s he’s discovered by a teenage girl named Charlie (Hailee Steinfeld). Decepticons and shadowy government agents aren’t the only things plaguing the cutest Autobot, though. Because as Charlie finds out, Bumblebee does NOT care to be Rickrolled… Kubo and the Two Strings director Travis Knight joins the Transformers franchise to helm this entry, which also stars John Cena, Kenneth Choi, and Pamela Adlon.

Almost in tears during the opening sequence. Seeing Optimus Prime, Soundwave, Shockwave and Ramjet/Dirge and Ravage in their original form we all grew up knowing from Saturday morning cartoons. So glad to see this was a soft reboot that way it can steer clear of the mess that Michael Bay made. This was the movie us fans was waiting for when we first learned Transformers was coming to the big screen. Hope Paramount will continue let this happen.

It’s like an apology for the other Transformers films. Still produced by Bay... just not directed. Much more satisfying action movie

It’s hard enough to have a fully CG character as your co-star, and it’s even tougher when an actor is tasked with creating a deep emotional bond with something she can’t even see during production. Steinfeld is up to the challenge, making us believe in Bumblebee’s existence almost as much as the animators who worked on bringing him to life.

The Transformers franchise has made bloated, histrionic pandemonium such a thing that the modest Bumblebee, for all its derivativeness, feels like a breath of fresh air.

The script stays on safe, formulaic ground, but it’s effective — and somehow breathes new life into a franchise that had become a junk heap.
