John Cena Gets Praised For His Role in Bumblebee

Bumblebee is off to a strong start as far as reviews go, pulling in a 96% rating at Rotten Tomatoes. Variety has praised the performance of WWE Superstar John Cena performance. You can read Variety’s comments below:

The movie’s most memorable human character is played by John Cena, who witnesses Bumblebee’s arrival as a flaming meteor (at that point, the Autobot is transforming into a Jeep), barely surviving the ensuing firefight. Representing the ominous governmental authority figure determined to capture and/or experiment upon such misunderstood aliens in movies like these, the former wrestler looks plenty intimidating in military garb. But he also brings a welcome sense of humor to the mix, holding his own against the gargantuan CG co-stars.

Bumblebee will arrive in theaters on December 21.
