If exposition were a contact sport, Transformers One would be banned for life.

The science in Transformers One has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

Cried during Transformers One. Mostly at the ticket price.

If Transformers One was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Transformers One actually is?

Look, I wanted to love Transformers One. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Unpopular opinion: Transformers One is the most overrated film of the decade

Honestly, Transformers One would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Hot Take: Transformers One's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Rewatched Transformers One last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
