Super cute! In this one, Bumblebee has a pair of big dog eyes + small moving ears. This came from director Travis Knight ("Legend of the Magic Strings"), who interviewed with the film and talked about the idea of ​​changing Bumblebee's face, and the film immediately decided that he was the director he was looking for. The small ears were inspired by animation (Fig. 8), and the larger eyes than the Transformers Bumblebee (Fig. 9) was because Knight wanted his face to be more emotional. Bumblebee is one of the closest Transformers to humans. Because of these designs, we have seen Bumblebees who will close their eyes when their face is touched, blink and droop when they are scared, surprised, and love to touch Charlie's head. Many people said: "Bumblebee" is like a retro movie about children and dogs [laugh cry] Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura said: When the film was made, when it came to The most talked about style reference film is "ET" "The Iron Giant." The design of the battle mask is inherited from the "Transformers" live-action movie, and the design of the mask has also been changed. Knight said: "I was trying to make him more alive, more emotional and thoughtful, to convince people that he was a real creature. This part was very much like what I was doing with the animation before. Because Bumblebee can't speak (broken vocal system), So I want to express his emotions through his eyes, and make the eyes bigger, so that the audience can read more emotions." The movie changed the bombardment of Michael Bay's version, from the emotions between Bumblebee and people It also reflects the humanistic care of the film, which is reminiscent of Spielberg's "ET". The 1980s elements in the movie are mixed together, from the Cold War to the Olympics to rock music, full of retro feelings. From the perspective of the growth process of girls, is it not the memory of Mesozoic Americans for their boyhood. Of course, "Bumblebee" shows the American car culture very well, and the model change of the Bumblebee reflects the incomparable love of Americans for cars. The combination of the elements of girls and cars makes the car culture more intimate and grounded. Finally, "Bumblebee" is a movie dedicated to teenagers, and it still continues the simple and routine way in the plot, which is similar to "Spider-Man: Parallel Universe", allowing teenagers to grow up in the field of love, family and sense of responsibility. It can be said that after the two rounds of ravages of "Change Change Change Change" and "Change Change Change Change" - the former accidentally brushed the theater twice - this "Bumblebee" is simply refreshing. Disgusting meat jokes, meaningless meat purchases, nonsense supporting roles, overly meticulous editing of footage, empty historical conspiracy theories... All the characteristics of "Transformers" are all in this biography. All disappeared. The film that got rid of all of this has narrowed the surface story pattern, but it can finally let people see the word "serious". Although Michael Bay is still signed to produce, he is probably to this "Bumblebee" what Zach Snyder is to "Aquaman." In fact, this spinoff is more executive producer Spielberg than any of the previous ones, and at times even feels like you're watching ET. After all, the director is Travis Knight, so in terms of temperament, he should be on the right track with Director Si. Knight inherited the advantages of "Legend of Magic Strings" and still attached importance to emotional shaping and psychological growth. And so we got a protagonist who was finally really likeable, and an Autobot who was finally really like a good guy. At the same time, although the action scenes are not as long as several originals, they are less bombastic, more punches to the flesh, and supplemented by longer and more stable shots. In fact, they have a different flavor. If there is any problem with the film, it is probably how much There is a suspicion of seeking stability, and while it is exciting, it is not as innovative as "Magic Strings". In addition, the growth story of the heroine and the invasion conspiracy of the Decepticons can be combined more deeply, and it will be better. Furthermore, Bumblebee is too human-like at times in the film, although it makes sense in that setting...

    7 points. This time, the cute bumblebee has reached a new level, and it is even more cute when squatting and sitting. The girls on the road of growth and the Autobots on the road of revival are very good companions and complements. The Battle of Cybertron was short, but still exciting. The human male and female protagonists can perform well, but the performance of the supporting actor John Cena is clumsy and looks bad. PS: I still see the familiar name at the end of the film - Michael Bay (producer).

    The second girl and ET from Cybertron. It's almost like taking a bumblebee as a pet dog... It's not bad at last, but it's just ordinary. Not particularly good. The reason why it is rare to get good reviews is because of the contrast. McCawbey's Transformers have been rotten for too long. And the audience's standards for this series have always been incredibly low...
