Superb - albeit flawed - Transformers movie
The movie is really engaging and fun, unfortunately some woke semantics and characters made it in. Elita One is featured as a typical woke feminist, even if she marginally improves as a character while still keeping the feminist hypocrisy (The "I am better than you" 'pep talk' example). And while it is not the first time the Transformers franchise has placed diversity voice acting in prior TV shows and movies, it is a first to put such an actor for D-16/Megatron. Finally, the whole "spark [heart] that gives you the will to make your world better" does not work as the heart or soul is corruptible as exemplified by D-16's fall.
