Critics Consensus: Bumblebee proves it's possible to bring fun and a sense of wonder back to a bloated blockbuster franchise -- and sets up its own slate of sequels in the bargain.

[Cena] gives good muscle, but Bumblebee brings something even more important - and actually transforming - to the series: a sense of humor, and a heart.
Fans of the classic "Transformers" will be thrilled by many of the touches here. But there is also now an entire generation of kids who are going to get to watch a girl drive, with a smile on her face.
"Bumblebee," for its part, has just enough wit, playfulness and charm to develop a voice of its own, which is no small thing in the context of a flashy, lunkheaded studio franchise.
It's an effective reimagining that also bears a knowing resemblance to classic youth-oriented films from Bumblebee executive producer Steven Spielberg.
"Bumblebee" is basically the movie that fans of the 1980s animated series wanted all along.
As a course correction for the series, pulling the previously complex mythology way back and starting over from scratch, it's enormously effective.
It does everything the Bay movies wouldn't, embracing what's made Transformers endure for three decades, and infusing it with a much-needed dose of heart.
Tears and thrills for all the family.
I think most fans will just be happy that there's a Transformers movie honoring the legacy. Fans can breathe a nice sigh of relief.
It's amazing how well a Transformers movie can work when liberated from the worst excessive tendencies of Michael Bay.
It's a Transformers movie to enjoy and even care about... and one capable of turning around this franchise's fortunes for the better.
Bumblebee is a fun, heartfelt and still action-filled Transformers prequel that ushers in a new - and better - era of movies about the Autobots.
