It's the story that happened in 1987. The story tells of Bumblebee the Autobot, who returned to a haven in a small beach town in California. There, the robot meets a girl named Charlie who is 18 years old and tries to find her place in the world, where Bumblebee the Autobot quickly discovers the scarcity of the battle he is facing, but perhaps enlivened by Charlie to realize that he is on the verge of a new conflict.

[Bumblebee] mostly feels like a cold-blooded blockbuster masquerading as something warm and earnest.

It has taken the franchise more than a decade to get its act together, but finally we get to experience what a Transformers movie should have been all along.

Steinfeld injects the right mix of sparky teen angst and feisty humour, adding layers to each scene that builds Iron Giant-style emotions between this girl and her car.

Bumblebee feels like the Transformers movie we should have gotten in the first place: a slice of family-friendly fun.
December 19, 2018
Nostalgic without being mindlessly retro; a sweet, heartfelt girl-and-her-alien-robot-car action-adventure buddy dramedy that hits all the right notes. Hailee Steinfeld is terrific, and there's not a whiff of Michael Bay to be found.

Bumblebee works because it dares to tap into a new dimension in this franchise: Legitimate emotional reactions. We humans like to refer to them as feelings!
