Transformers One

'Transformers One' is pretty cool. I found it really interesting to see the origin story of how Optimus Prime and Megatron became what they became. Chris Hemsworth and Brian Tyree Henry are perfect for those aforementioned roles, Henry particularly impresses as the latter. Keegan-Michael Key, Scarlett Johansson and Jon Hamm manage to standout too, I'd say this definitely has the best performing cast of the Michael Bay-involved flicks from this series (I'm aware this is not officially part of the live-action franchise, but with Bay attached it practically is). The animation style is terrific, there are some gorgeous visuals in there; the backdrops, specifically. The score is also noteworthy, as is the humour actually; Key, though not exclusively, is naturally at the forefront of that department. I don't have complaints with this film, evidently.
