ReviewsTransformers: Devastation: The Kotaku Review
To quote a tiny yellow robot during one of Transformers: Devastation’s many brilliant moments, “I did not see that coming.” Despite the killer cel-shaded look and a cast packed with voice actors from the ‘80s cartoon reprising their roles as the original robots in disguise, all signs pointed towards Transformers: Devastation being a massive disappointment.…
