Transformers 5: The Last Knight

Transformers Movie Series

Here we go again, for the fifth time! As a family we have now watched all of the Transformer movies that are out, which makes five of them. Bumblebee is still in the theater and there's a seventh and maybe eighth planned and/or in production, but of the five out on DVD, we have now watched them all. The latest Transformers movie sees Optimus Prime play the role of bad dude, at least for awhile.

Transformers 5: The Last Knight

The fifth Transformers movie finds Optimus Prime tricked into destroying Earth. Fortunately for Earth, and the future of the Transformers movie series, the day is saved and Optimus Prime is brought back to the good side. I was a bit saddened to see most of the movie being Optimus-free given the large emphasis on his attempt to destroy Earth. And his turn back to the good side didn't take long, given it was a 2.5 hour movie.

I really don't have much more to say about these Transformers movies. They are fun to watch, but they are basically repeats of each other. Humans are stupid and make stupid mistakes. Autobots help humans. There are some evil Transformers working with evil humans. Autobots and good humans win. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. :-)
