Finally, a Bayverse movie not made and only partly produced by Bay!
BTW I'm going to go out on a limb and say this movie is enjoyed by OGs, and is hated by newer bay fans.

Plot line was much better than the Bayfilms, and the action was pretty good too.
Lol I love your comment 👍😁
I can’t wait to see the Bumblebee movie 🍿 🎥
Which were brilliant.
It had heart, a sense of scale and wonder, plus naughty, deceitful Decepticons.
Not overtly bombastic scenarios 24/7.
You see, they were ROBOTS IN DISGUISE.
Great lead in Hailee Steinfeld, a teen facing real life issues and a plot which actually makes sense.
And designs, that while respecting Bay, are REAL Transformers.
Shatter looks like an updated Nightbird.
Bee looks like a studio series Goldbug!
Stop whining and enjoy a lovely TRANSFORMERS film.
Watch it multiple times so we get a CYBERTRON film!
*Pick up IDW's Transformers UK Classics Vol 1 to see what I'm talking about.
If I could, I would literally replay the Cybertron scenes at least 5 times.
YouTube is your friend
Yeees it is.
Do you hate everything that’s great ???...
The Bumblebee movie is the #1 Transformers Movie Out there
I haven’t seen it yet but it’s way better ratings than those crummy bay films
Great job Hasbro #1 Transformers Movie winner here
Instead of paying to go see the movie I’m going to buy the DVD than I can watch it a couple times in a row if I want 👍👍👍👍👍 in my own home no crowds 😁
It isn't great. You haven't even seen it so don't criticise someone else's opinion if you can't actually have one. FYI, Bay was involved in this one as a producer too, so it is still a Bay film. The ratings it has are completey unjustified. The animated film is way better and as far as comparing it to other TF material irrespective of whether it's a film or not, it's lame as hell.
I’m just tired of hearing negative notes
I like Bumblebee’s movie so I put yes
Man, it's just a soft reboot and ALREADY the Bay-lovers are going nuts.
Why isn't Charlie Watson in hot pants?
What kind of hot actress doesn't save the day while looking like she stepped out of a lingerie catalog?!?!!
Why didn't Dropkick take a dump on Cena, whilst pleasuring himself to Johnny 5?
Why no animal copulation?!?
Lack of 'splosions!
Bumblebee is yellow, why isn't he Asian?!? (Bay has done far worse, TBF, twins*cough*vomit*)
Where's CADE?!?
This is basically exactly what my friend was shouting in whispers at me when we watched the film.
Amateur fan edit by me
(Couldnt get Starscream to line up)
Until the bumblebee movie came out,and I was amazed.It had an amazing opening scene,great character and relationship development(when it comes to friendship)and intense fighting scenes.when you see them fight,it’s like their actually fighting,unlike in bayverse where the fight scenes are more like bunches of techno-organic robots smashing the s*it out of each other until bits and pieces of metal popped out,it’s less of a fight scene and more of a battle to see who can knock even more bits n pieces out
Of course,I have to thank Travis for b

True
The action was great, you can actually recognize the bots due to their explicit color designs. The Cybertron scene was undeniably spectacular, from the designs, the action and actually getting the feel of the bots on Cybertron, it was beautiful. The fight scenes on Earth were great as well, as you can actually feel the emotions that some of the bots go through. For example:
(Actual Spoilers)
•Blitzwing''s grunts of fear, as he knows he's about to blow up.
•Bumblebee's cute puppy eyes
The humor was kid-friendly and wasn't like Bay's inappropriate jokes (some of Bay''s jokes were ridiculously funny, I'll admit). It was some nice dry humor to go around, amplified by Bee''s innocence and naive behavior.
Bee was cute.
Charlie was a bit more of a rounded character than Sam, having an actual character arc rather than Sam, who just wanted to get in a girl's.... I'm not gonna finish that sentence. I will admit, I do find Sam's character of screaming to be justified because, who wouldn't scream when your car is a giant robot that might squish your guts out? Haliee Steinfiled's acting was phenomenal as you can actually feel the pain she has gone through. Even if it does feel a bit over saturated at some points, it still hits the feels.
John Cena was.... John Cena (I mean this in a fun way). You can tell he's having a good time and he that he's trying to step up his game after comedy movies like Blockers (a great comedy, I may add).
The Decepticons were graceful, a jem compared to most of the Bayformers grunts. Angela Bassett did a great job as Shatter, makingher sound like a deceptive peaceful diplomat. Dropkick was the sadistic muscle, as you can obviously tell by his actions. And Blitzwing, was absolutely awesome. Hearing him made me think Depth Charge was fighting Bee. Huh, Decepticons with more personalities that a dumpster fire, why did it take 6 movies for us to get that?
I detested Charlie's family, however. They seemed way too ignorant and stupid about what's going on or life in generel. I mean really? That's what you give to her on her 18th birthday?
I will say there some clichés here and there, such as:
•Charlie is bullied because her father died?
•The military are after an alien. They then find out the alien isn't evil and leave it alone.
But with despite those flaws, it's still a fun, heart-filled film that is great for everyone. Original? No.
Great? Yes.
Cute? You bet your stinger it is.
