Transformers One

‘Transformers One’ does a fantastic job balancing between nostalgic and new storytelling and highlighting the relationship dynamics that’s between Optimus and Megatron.

The star-studded cast did a great job showing heart and humor, making this the Transformers film we have all been waiting for.  Chris Hemsworth delivers a fresh take on Optimus Prime as Cybertron’s hero. Brian Tyree Henry’s portrayal of the antagonist, Megatron is emotionally charged. Scarlett Johansson’s Elita-1 brings dimension and resilience. There is a lot of character development and emotional deep themes.

Visually, the movie has modern and sleek animation with towering metallic cities and the modeling is richly rendered. In addition, there are plenty of Easter eggs for long-time fans and the film brings back original ideas from G1.  

‘Transformers’ One is well worth the trip to the theater, and make sure you stay after the credits for a post credit scene! Enjoy!
