Well, it contains spoilers. But anyway.

The first few minutes show the war of Cybertron, but up close. And it shows Ratchet, Wheeljack, Cliffjumper, Arcee, Ironhide, Optimus, and Bumblebee, but in the film his original name was "B-127" trying to evacuate Cybertron, while battling Shockwave, Soundwave, Ravage, Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker, Acid Storm, and other Decepticons and they're all in their Generation 1 Counterparts, and B-127 talks with his regular voice. And everyone in the theater was like "Yeah, this is how Michael Bay should have done!" And they all escape, except Optimus, who tells B-127 to make a base on Earth, and his pod launches. Then it shows Agent Burns (played by John Cena) playing paint ball and then B-127 crash lands in their game, and he runs away from them by transforming into an 80's Military jeep, and then they cornered him at their small hideout, but B-127 tells him it was a mistake, but then they're all attacked by Blitzwing and we actually saw a Transformers fight, that what is going on! Instead of it being cropped! And then when Blitzwing tells B-127 where Optimus and the other Autobots are, he refuses to speak and Blitzwing rips out his voice box, and his memory, but B-127 kills Blitzwing by shoving one of his rockets in his torso and he fires at it, and Blitzwing blows up and is killed, and B-127 gets knocked unconscious. And that was just my one minor issue I have with it, like some Autobots and Decepticons were in the other Transformers films.

But then it shows Charlie Watson (who is played by Hailee Steinfeld) who's a former diver, and is trying to recover from her father's death, and she lives with her mom, her new husband, and brother. And she works at a Carnival serving corndogs, and she is bullied by a girl called Tina, but at the same time she gets a crushed by a boy called Memo who's also her neighbor. And one day while at the junkyard where she works, she got a Volkswagen for her birthday but it activated B-127's beacon which attracted two Deception triple-changer's Shatter and Dropkick who killed Cliffjumper, one on of Saturn's moons. And Bee transforms right in front of Charlie, and he starts making buzzing sounds and she called him "Bumblebee". And later Shatter and Dropkick arrived on Earth, and teamed up with Agent Burns to find Bumblebee, but at the same time they sent a distress signal for the other Decepticons to arrive on Earth (but they didn't know that Megatron was there still frozen).

And later Memo meets Charlie and Bumblebee, and Bee tries to talk with his radio and they have many adventure. But for the rest, well you just have to see it for yourself. And yeah, Travis Knight did so much better, and I hope he can probably direct more Transformers movies and maybe the sixth one with the characters in their Gen 1 designs. Because I really wanna see Megatron's Gen 1 design, and maybe the Dinobots, Cybertron, and Unicron. And it's also hip and funny as well, it looked more like a coming of age tale and one of Spielberg's 80's films. So I give Bumblebee an 8 out of 10.
