The plot: During the 1990s, the Maximals, Predacons and Terrorcons join the existing battle on Earth between Autobots and Decepticons.
I was so excited for this movie.
These new Transformers movie was good.
Pros: Having both the Autobots and the Maximals sharing the same screen together was fun to watch. I liked the main plot of this new film being simple enough to enjoy it. Anthony Ramos & Dominique Fishback respectively did a solid job with their roles. A lot of the action is thrilling and exciting & I enjoyed the movie in my Century Cinema today.
Cons: Some of the special effects do look a bit wonky. The camera does pull back and forth and theres, no permanent deaths after what happened to certain characters.
