What if you found out that two of the most iconic enemies in the Transformers universe started out as best friends? This special Saturday edition of Natey & Katy: At the Movies offers a thrilling solo review of "Transformers One," an animated film that dives into the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron. With an impressive voice cast that includes Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, and Keegan-Michael Key, this episode promises to unpack the layers of this action-packed film set in the world of Cybertron. I discuss the complexities and nuances of the movie, from its stellar animation to its dynamic voice performances, particularly Hemsworth's evolving portrayal of Optimus Prime.
But not all is perfect in the world of Cybertron. The episode also tackles some glaring inconsistencies in the film's marketing, especially the confusion about its target audience. From kid-friendly trailers to unexpectedly mature content, I explore how these discrepancies left me puzzled and slightly disappointed. Nonetheless, I share why despite these shortcomings, "Transformers One" remains a fun and engaging watch, especially on the big screen. Tune in to find out if this animated adventure lives up to the legacy of its legendary characters and whether it's worth your trip to the theater.
