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

With an opportunity to erase all that care before it, BumbleBee movie did a pretty good job, almost. The most exciting and successful moments are the ones that took place in Cybertron. The character design was true to it’s Generation 1 origins. Seeing Arcee and others in Live action form was a fan’s dream come true. Where the movie lacked was in the script. Some of the dialogue between human characters was cheesy and not from it’s time of 1987. As a kid of the 80’s, I think the writing team could have done some more research in that respect. Also, reducing the post Cybertron Bee to BB-8 from the new Star Wars movies was a sad attempt to make him cute. Overall, the Cybertronian scenes were worth it.

The best of all of the Transformer movies.

this is for the best transformer movie of the franchise. don't let Michael bay touch anymore 📠💯

Best Transformers Movie Made!

I will love this movie! Favorite series is Transformers!

Loved it!!

better than the last 4 Transformers combined

Great special effects

I have seen director’s cut when heroine dives into water in climax. Story is simple but screenplay is very well. Actors are newbies but have done it with ease. John Cena looks really like a army. Over all I enjoyed it and would suggest to anyone.

It was a great movie. Bee is my favorite transformer and he did not disappoint.. Hailee girl she had me in tears in some points of the movie. the 80's music was a plus for me.. :)

They changed the story from how the first transformers moving described how they came to earth. There was barely any action and Bee was portrayed as a scared little adolescent at times. I love transformers but this one was a disappointment.

thanks all

I grew up watching the original 80s cartoon, when I saw the opening Cybertron battle scene, WOW!!! took my breath away!!! this is what we've needed and Wanted! (Mr.Bay I am talking to YOU) Thank you Travis and the talented screenwriter (drawing blank on name) for bringing our childhood memories back!!!! 6 Stars all the way!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lots of action, we enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed this movie and it's great for families and friends

This movie brings back the 80's and its transformers, the way it should be.

I LOVE BUMBLEBEE!

My daughter and I loved it! We have always loved the BumbleBee Autobot Transformer character along with Optimus Prime too! Yes we would definitely go see it again!! We love you BumbleBee and now we have now how you originally lost your voice.

Cute for the kids. Very little cursing ("Mr. Cena said s***, Mom!"), adorable and squeaky clean heroine, cute robot-child friendship. Pretty violent robot fighting but not over the top. Took a 9-year old who loves robots and it was a winner for kids of 2009 and kids of the 90's. :) Some silly references and corny setups but great for what it was.

Great movie

Like how apps have lite versions, this was a very lite version of the transformers series. They did the bare minimum on this one even for a(late to the game) origin story. The plot was basically a mix of the first one, ET and the iron giant. The acting was whatever, it seems like John cena lost whatever mediocre acting skill he had on this movie. This could’ve been way more engaging and fun but they seemed to just wanna make a movie and get some money. This should’ve came out years ago in the middle of the transformers series, not this late, it would been a bit better. This really just a movie for pre teen entertainment. Very “eh”. And bumblebee is a warrior from a highly advanced robot civilization, and doesn’t understand the concept of discretion and acts like a 5 year old that can’t be left alone.

Was not impressed.

Ok

Sleepingonit

It was awesome

So happy to see a return to greatness for this franchise.

great film, fun awesome plot, music was great

Just more Transformers which isn’t a bad thing. Similar themes though. Not very original.

It was a great movie. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

For those hoping for a simpler, more true to the source Transformers experience, this is a must-see. Does not disappoint. For everyone else, it’s still lots of fun. Recommended. A-

was expecting more; great story, fun movie, some memorable moments, but definitely didn’t blow me away. i might have gone in with too high of expectations.

Not that good.

Beginning of the movie was great, but the rest was pretty slow.

I loved it. had me wanting to see more.

The story of Bumblebee was good and CGI was pretty solid. Acting of side characters and antagonists lacked flavor. Steinfeld held her own in this one which was relieving. Definitely worth seeing if you want to reignite your interest in the transformer movies series.

What the 2007 movie should have been.

Only 1 autobot and 2 decepticons in a 2 hour movie - seriously ? This is easily the worst installment of the Transformers franchise with a weak and predictable plot. I do not recommend this film, save your money or watch anyone of the Michael Bay transformers movies which are way better.

One time watch.. Enjoyable!!

This is my favorite transformer film!

great movie

So awesome!!! Definitely watch it again

A fun transformer movie with lots of heart. Bumble Bee is like a lost little boy that can fight machines much bigger than him. This movie perfects the art of hugging a huge cold machine and making it look cuddly.

Worst transformer movie yet. So boring and extra emotional. Meh.

Awesome fun movie

Dope

Great to see the 80s cartoon version of Bumblebee, Soundwave and other Transformers realized in CGI glory. I love the character and friendship development between the protagonists.

enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Great 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.
