Critics Consensus

Dramatically satisfying with a dash of good humor, Transformers One suggests that animation might be the optimal medium for this oft-adapted franchise.

Wendy Ide Observer (UK) A refreshingly new breed of Autobot adventure -- one that has been notably souped-up in the brains department. Oct 14, 2024 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) The screenplay from Eric Pearson, Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari is wildly ambitious, and includes the kind of next-level detail you wouldn't expect in a Spielbergian epic, let alone an angry android movie. Rated: 3/5 Oct 14, 2024 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It's got lots of smashy-bashy action, satisfyingly crunchy silly machine Transformation, it's got a not-so-subtle message about power corrupting, and it's even got a couple of jokes that I actually laughed at. Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Víctor López G. Espinof While the youngest members of the household will enjoy a good dose of uplifting stories and fun for all audiences, adults will find a veiled sociopolitical backdrop, filled with class struggles and a robotic proletarian-Marxist revolution. Dec 27, 2024 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Uwe Boll could make a Transformers film for a buck fifty and employ only sock puppets and it would be praised to the high heavens simply for not being directed by Michael Bay. That’s the takeaway one gets after watching Bumblebee and now Transformers One. Rated: 2/4 Dec 21, 2024 Full Review Grant Watson Fiction Machine Blessed with a strong, well-developed screenplay, the film boasts funny and engaging characters, inventive and eye-catching design, and tells a decent all-ages science fiction adventure. Rated: 7/10 Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

We also enjoyed watching it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Crystal L this was one of the best transformers movies in a long time. There needs to be a second part to keep it going. If you still haven't seen, go see it was really good. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Brandon Angelo This is a really great Transformers movie! The best one since the first Bay Movie!
