Kinda funny that in the day of anime, I'd rather not have to read subtitles to know who my giant robots are.

To be fair, he was the lamest vehicle.

That's how you do a transformers movie. That was sublime. I really, really liked that. Really.

Edit :  it's the next day and Bumblebee is STILL the best movie I've seen this year.  Also, the second best movie IN a year.  (Spiderverse pipped it marginally).

I mean, damn, it's a fine, fine movie and all of you need to go and then go again and then go again so that they do MORE and never, ever, ever let Bay near a Transformers movie ever again.

This has thankfully been officially branded a reboot. They also announced a "war for cybertron" triliogy coming to netflix next year, which i assume is related.

Watched this on a plane, which is my habit for films I am marginal about.  Good movie. 10x more an 80s movie than Captain Marvel was a 90s movie. As a devotee of the genre there were a lot of good touches for the era beyond the obvious.  The whole structure of it was very 80s and was steeped in tropes.

I liked that in the action you could tell what the fuck was actually happening. Limiting the number of bots was a good choice. 

Bee jumping on the beemer with absolute glee was my favorite part.
