Variety has posted their review of Transformers PRIME, which premieres tomorrow, on Black Friday! Though the design influence from the movies made it to the character designs(some), what didn't follow were other characteristics of the movies). Here's some of what Variety had to say:

As no-brainers go, a Transformers TV show on the Hub -- welding Hasbro's popular toy line into its cable co-venture with Discovery -- ranks down there with making a sequel to the first movie. Yet the product of that assembly line, "Transformers Prime," proves unexpectedly sharp -- better than the movies (admittedly damnation with faint praise), thanks to the arresting CGI animation, which proves especially well-suited to rendering shiny robots and their vehicular alter egos. There's nothing more than meets the eye here, but what does appear is a plenty entertaining addition to this well-oiled moneymaking machine.

For those of you worried that the show would be kiddified and dumbed down, there's more than meets the eye after the jump!
