Positive Reception
Transformers One had its premiere in Sydney, Australia, on September 11, 2024. It will be released in the U.S. on September 20, 2024. Critics are already praising the movie. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has received a 90% critic score, which is much higher than most previous live-action Transformers movies.
Changes in the Transformers Franchise
Transformers One shows that the franchise is moving in a new direction. Earlier movies in the series focused heavily on human characters. However, this animated film focuses more on the Transformers themselves, which many fans are happy about. Some recent live-action films, like Bumblebee and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, have started making this shift, but Transformers One takes it even further.
