Movie Review:

"Transformers One," directed by Josh Cooley, is the latest animated Transformers movie that delves into the untold origins of Optimus Prime and Megatron. This film is possibly the best Transformers movie ever made, with its fantastic world-building, emotional character moments, and hilarious comedic jokes that will have you laughing out loud. The action scenes are top-notch and truly make this movie a pleasant surprise.

Chris Hemsworth voices a younger Optimus Prime as Orion Pax, and he does an excellent job capturing the character's leadership, charm, and courage. Brian Tyree Henry voices D-16, who eventually becomes Megatron, and his portrayal of the character's transformation from a friend to a ruthless villain is emotional and heartbreaking. Keegan-Michael Key as Bumblebee adds humor and fun to the movie, making him one of the standout characters.

The voice talent in this film, including Scarlett Johansson, Steve Buscemi, and Laurence Fishburne, all bring their characters to life with charm and personality. John Hamm as Sentinel Prime is a compelling and power-hungry villain who drives the plot forward.

The third act of the movie is filled with incredible robot action, emotional moments, and stunning animation that truly brings the story to life. While some jokes may not land and the ending may leave you wanting more, "Transformers One" is still one of my favorite movies of the year. If you're a fan of the Transformers franchise, you'll definitely enjoy this film. I am giving it a 4.5/5.
