 Movie Review
Bumblebee is a 2018 American science fiction action film centered on the
Transformers character of the same name. It is the sixth installment of the live-
action Transformers film series, it was developed as a spin-off and prequel, and
later declared a reboot of the franchise. Directed by Travis Knight and written
by Christina Hodson, the film stars Hailee Steinfeld, John Cena, Jorge
Lendeborg Jr., John Ortiz, Jason Drucker, and Pamela Adlon, with Dylan
O'Brien. It is the first live-action Transformers film not to be directed by
Michael Bay, though he still produced, and Travis Knight's first live-action film.

Teenage girl Charlie Watson remains traumatized by the death of her father, and
resentful of her mother Sally for finding a new boyfriend named Ron. Charlie
finds a yellow Volkswagen Beetle in a scrapyard belonging to Hank, who gives
it to her as an 18th birthday present. When trying to start it, a yellow
Volkswagen become a robot. While Charlie attempts to fix the Beetle, it
transforms into B-127, whom she befriends and nicknames "Bumblebee". She
then unknowingly unlocks a message from Optimus urging Bumblebee to
defend Earth in their absence, which restores some of his memories. Bumblebee
is discovered by Charlie's neighbor Memo, who agrees to protect their secret
due to his feelings for Charlie. And the conflict began when Charlie
unknowingly activates a homing signal that is detected by Decepticons Shatter
and Dropkick as they interrogate and execute the Autobot Cliffjumper on one of
Saturn's moons.

Interesting things

 conflicts in bumblebee are easy to understand, while conflicts in

transformers are more difficult to understand
 Different with the previous movie (transformers) , bumblebee feels very
boring. the conflict that they want to present is too long, so the
conversation feels longer.In the transformers movie, conversations and
some actions feel balanced. so it's not boring

Boring things

 It is not explained why bumblebee must be a figure who must save the
earth, even though many autobots are stronger than bumblebee
 Moral Lesson
 Keep promises
 Faithful friend
 Not vengefu
