went to the theater with some buddies on Christmas to see The Mule and of course it was all sold out so we settled on seeing the next showing of Bumblebee and it was such a pleasant surprise . Very glad Michael Bay didn't direct it. Whoever did direct it (too lazy to look it up right now) did a pretty damn good job at the pacing and the humor was a nice touch thru out too. Hailee Steinfeld (sp?) was a great lead (very charming and better than Shia LeButt ) . Would recommend it to folks of all ages and you don't have to be a Transformers fan to enjoy this one [Reply]

I was watching it thinking this movie had a little ET in it. Then I saw the end credits and Spielberg was a producer on this one. The issue with the past movies is they concentrate on the world is going to die. These big metal things are going to save us. They left out the “real” human being story or interaction. I think that’s why it worked better. [Reply]
