That was fire! I had so much fun!!
9 June 2023
I have to start by saying that I was not expecting much from this movie so I'm thrilled with joy about how much I got from it. I think I'm bias because the movie takes place in 1994, a good year for me and a good time for music which was used very effectively to give you a vibe of New York (or rather Brooklyn) in general. I will be blunt on how the Black and Brown culture meshing with the Transformers also realty gave the franchise a breath of fresh air. It's strange how that works. Black and LantinX has existed forever yet somehow putting it in a movie franchise about giant robots from space gave it a uniqueness that gets attention.

As Martin Scorsese would say "it's a roller coaster ride", but I love roller coaster rides. The Action was fantastic beautiful visual scenes but I'll admit my one nick pick would be don't see it in 3D. The format flattens the visual effects making everything look faker than it already is.

Also love the interaction of the humans and Transformers. The Transformers have more personality now than they did as basic background for Michael Bay's film.

Plus, there are some bells and whistles that truly put the smile of the 8-year kid on my face.

Worth it!
