Review of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023) by Fazcoasters — 13 Jul 2023

Solid film, nothing blew me away. Just a good, fun time. I haven't seen Bumblebee or Last Knight but this is my second favorite in the franchise just behind Transformers 2007. Great battles as expected.

Scourge was a great villain to counteract Prime & Primal. I don't think Mirage was as annoying as everyone made him out to be but the commentary became a little much at times, especially during an early battle.

Noah & Elaina were great human characters, probably the best since Sam in 07. Prime and Primal were great respectively, with both growing throughout the course of the film. I wish some of the other Maximals were given as much screen time as Autobots like Bumblebee and Arcee did.

Overall I enjoyed the movie and I would rank it similarly to Jurassic World.
