Your buddy, the yellow beetle

You have to thank Steven Spielberg, that the Film exists, said, "Bumblebee"-Director Travis Knight a online portal. Spielberg produced the previous "Transformers"movies directed by Michael Bay. But you always wondered: White Spielberg what he is in order? He looks at the films yourself?

The productions, based on the Action figures, the toy manufacturer Hasbro, was increasingly roaring nonsense; "Make America Great Again"-material battles, with which the Bay is still the last to him in a friendly-minded critics, the question of Confidence. The screenplays were on the best possible sheet metal damage, the characters talked a sheet.

Now it has made Spielberg apparently, the Franchise healthy zuschrumpfen. "Bumblebee" is a Prequel and tells how it all began. With a robot, namely, the turns into a beetle. No, not in an insect like Kafka, but in a VW: The Transformer adopts, on earth as not to attract attention, in the Form of a Volkswagen Beetle Vintage 67. On his home planet of war, and the Transformer had been sent on the earth because his master wants to relocate here. Two evil robots followed him.

formula for success that doesn't age

But that's only intergalactic Beigemüse. Spielberg's idea was to tell the story of a Teenager from a dysfunctional suburban family who becomes friends with an alien. The idea is 35 years old and actually means "E. T.". But the success formula is not old. And fittingly playing "Bumblebee" in the eighties: A 17-Year-old (Hailee Steinfeld) got over the sudden death of her father, the mother is annoying with a new friend, of a restored family, the adolescent wants to know nothing. You will find on a scrap heap, a broken and dirty yellow beetle that developed a life of its own.

Director Travis Knight had to find as a young man, too: He is the son of the rich Nike's founder, Phil Knight, was once a Rapper and is now CEO of the animation company Laika ("Coraline"). In "Bumblebee", he tells touchingly of the self-discovery of a teenager and directed the Film beautifully ironic as a Vintage-Blockbuster, the watch also determines Steven Spielberg.
