    Bite sized dip in the world of transformers. Unfortunately already had seen some of the jokes going in which was sad, I loved the awkwardness of this movie.

    Good stuff. Kids movie that doesn't beat around the bush. First thirty minutes had me gripped, then the emotional beats kinda got to me. Animation was stupendous. More of this, please.

    I really, really like Andrew Callaghan's work on Channel 5. I really appreciate the swings he takes and the topics he follows. This was unfortunately a swing and a miss for me. Going into it I felt like I had seen half the clips already and kinda knew where we were going. He gets a little preachy while talking about using empathy to understand people who have flung themselves into the rabbit hole, while also selecting clips from his interviews to mock these people's deranged beliefs. Any time Kelly's family wasn't on screen talking about losing their father the film just felt flat.

    I'm not kidding, this movie is what made my brain realize movies could be like, really really good. The first time watching this was a spiritual experience. Is it perfect? No. Is it fuckin' awesome? Yes.
