Transformers One Review

Transformers One reviewed by Tom Jorgensen.

Transformers One’s core duo of Orion Pax and D-16 and the fallout of their broken friendship provide an occasional spark, but despite the efforts of its impressive voice cast and a standout performance from Brian Tyree Henry, this animated origin story rarely shows anything more than meets the eye. Its G1-inspired aesthetic is cool in small doses, but Transformers One regularly fumbles trying to follow its transforming robots through the action. Though the tragedy of Optimus Prime and Megatron’s storied rivalry could have felt larger than life, Transformers One is mostly content with half-hearted puns and barely legible Cybertronian battles that could have used some major transforming before rolling out.

Hey IGN, my finger can transform, guess which one tchtchtch

[transformerdude]

Let me get this straight, no humans is a negative for you? IGN just give up trying to critique media, it clearly is not for you.

[BatM-lj]

You know you don't need to scale something to a human size when the whole planet doesn't know what a human is, a cybertronian citizen is the base scale.

If you ever feel useless, remember that this video exists.

Nah they said Brian Tyler’s score was basic the SAME Brian Tyler WHO WROTE THE TRANSFORMERS PRIME SOUNDTRACK WHICH WON SEVERAL EMMYS!..yup thats IGN :/

[myfakename]

Low scores on ign are usually a good sign

[xMBDxAuto]

6:30 They’re alien robots. They don’t need to be scaled to anything EXCEPT THEMSELVES

[jurrienvallo]

You guys have officially lost everyone’s respect with this one,

[backfandangoX]

[spencerschwartz]

Not surprised they gave it a 5 when almost everyone else is praising it lol.

[thewetnoodl]

Never let IGN have an opinion again 😭🙏

[christophercruz]

These same guys gave Age of Extinction a 6.
Just to let you know.

[tfg]

Ignore this review he’s clearly the only critic who didn’t enjoy it

[adamhenson]

This movie has been named the best transformers movie out of all of them, it has 90% on Rotten Tomatoes.

You should never be allowed to review movies again.

I'm honestly so happy to see these comments. I'm really tired of seeing horrible reviews like this sway people away from seeing a movie, because this movie is great! This review however just highlights modern day film critics. They don't go to the movies to find some sort of enjoyment. They go to nitpick and be snobby towards the art itself. They don't like movies. They love to hate them.

IGN is a joke! They gave Concord 7/10 but not this? Bruh

[davidreed]

This guy has no clue. Saw the movie today, and it was an excellent origin story.

My friends, since our fingers can transform. Let us combine our fingers and show them what our fingers can combine into.
