Featured reviews
The writing is superb! The animation is gorgeous. And the voice acting is top notch.
There are plenty of Easter eggs to appeal to long time fans. There are new story elements that reshape the lore of the Transformers franchise, but it feels organic and more refined than prior origin stories.
A pre-Civil War Cybertron is beautifully rendered. We are introduced to a planet that contains both technological and organic life. You will see familiar faces throughout the movie. Aside from the main characters. The film is great to see.
Kudos to the writing, production, and acting.
I can't wait to see it again!

Transformers one delivers and then some!
As a fan of the transformer story, this film provides a unique tail on the origin of both Megatron and Optimus prime.
It is a brilliant new direction to this franchise! The animation is top-notch, and perfectly fits the style of storytelling. The story of both Megatron and Optimus prime is a lovely one and riveting, and they do justice and telling it in such a great way. Developing the introductions for the characters that we will soon come to love. This is truly a great introductory film that any fan can enjoy!
Overall rating: 7/10 Highly recommended.

This is 100% the best Transformers movie. It's definitely one of the best of the year as well. For rather simplistic trailers, this movie goes into more of a complexity that is inspiring, and even heartbreaking at times. The bond between Orion and D was sweet, and seeing it fall apart had me on the edge of my seat. My favorite part about the movie has to be that it is a definitive Transformers movie. It's been the Transformers movie fans have been waiting for a long time. It was such a cool experience finally seeing the Transformers lore unfold on the big screen. I'm also quite surprised how funny this franchise can be. Bumblebee, I mean Badassatron, is definitely the best part. I can't wait to see the future of this franchise, and how our two leads unfold into their different characters and to see more of their backgrounds.
My wife and I watched Transformers One (2024) in theaters last night. The storyline follows two minor Transformers on Cybertron who want to help their leader find "the Matrix," a powerful artifact that could restore energy to their people, end their reliance on mining, and possibly change the course of their future. As they search for the Matrix, they uncover secrets from their past, revealing that not everything is as it seems, and a dark truth about Cybertron could alter existence as they know it.
This film is directed by Josh Cooley (Toy Story 4) and features the voices of Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Brian Tyree Henry (Bullet Train), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Keegan-Michael Key (Wonka), Steve Buscemi (Boardwalk Empire), and Laurence Fishburne (The Matrix).
Transformers One is a brilliant new direction for the franchise. The animation is top-notch, and the character dynamics, dialogue, and voice casting are spot-on. The story has clever twists and turns as the heroes discover their true selves, their abilities, and how they fit into the broader Transformers universe. The chemistry between the characters is fantastic, and once the transforming begins, the film really takes off. The movie features smart subplots and two epic concluding battles that were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
In conclusion, Transformers One is a fantastic relaunch for the series, and I hope it gets plenty of sequels. I would score it an 8-8.5/10 and strongly recommend it.

Did you know
- TriviaMegatron's original name D-16 is a reference to the Japanese serial number of the original Generation 1 Megatron toy released by the company Takara in 1984. The letter D is short for Destron, the Japanese name of the Decepticons used in older media, while the number 16 denoted the original Megatron toy as the sixteenth release in the Japanese toy line.
- GoofsWhen the Iacon 5000 contestants transform for the race, a purple jet Transformer already has a pair of red light effects floating behind his back, attached to nothing, before he turns into a jet.
- Crazy creditsThere is a mid-credits scene featuring B-127, and a post-credits scene featuring Megatron.
- Alternate versionsSeveral international releases of the film (including the UK) changed any mention of Bee's "knife hands" to refer to them as "sword hands" instead. It's likely that Paramount had changed the film for those territories.
