Transformers One is actually good
So I saw that first trailer and wrote the whole movie off.
Months later, amidst the shockingly positive reception, I was curious enough to see it for myself. And damn, it’s actually pretty great and I saw it twice. Being a Transformers fan can be hard with the inconsistent quality, and I’m still surprised they pulled off a great animated movie where the robots were the sole focus. It also had many lore elements I’d long wanted to see on the big screen, which I won’t spoil.
I think casual and longtime fans alike would enjoy it. Given the current underperformance, I’m not holding out for a sequel, but I’m damn pleased we got this one at all. I’ll forever be grateful to the cast and crew for bringing Orion Pax and D-16 into theaters.
I really enjoyed it, too. Stuck enough to established lore that it didn't feel alien, differed enough to feel new and like its own thing. Great character development, and a good build to what we all know was coming. Really hope it gets a sequel.
I'm a casual fan. Only watched the the bay trilogy. I saw the movie today and was blown away. Now I want to dig more into transformers. The animation on youtube vs the release is so different. YouTube's compression is making 1080 look lkke 420p. The world, characters, i fell in love.
Give the original movie a look.
I’ve heard a few others say the same! Glad to see this movie bringing others in. Transformers has some great stories and visuals, and even at its worse, robot cars are cool so it can’t be that bad!
I'm a huge fan of the original movie, and went in skeptical as heck, but coming out, i thought they did a fantastic job with the motivation of the 2 mains and got goosebumps during the reveal. A bit kiddy in some parts, but all in all a good watch. Well done to the studio. Only later found out some avengers were in the cast too!
Yeah, I’m very impressed. Which original movie btw, 84 or 07? I’ve heard both referred to as the first
'84. There were NO other movies!
