Director Caple Jr. takes his time allowing Ramos and Fishback to develop their characters as they fight being marginalized and dismissed in ‘90s New York. They’re no mere cardboard characters but rather fully dimensional individuals, a rarity in “Transformers” movies.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts keeps it simple enough, which is smart, because franchise creep is going to hit like a ton of bricks within a sequel or two, especially given its ending. Rise of the Beasts isn’t quite as intimate or grounded as Bumblebee, but neither is it as cumbersome or dull as the other Transformers movies.

I don't know why so many bad grades I particularly loved the movie, the 90's music hip hop, the characters, the reboot they did in the movie/story, the personality of the mirage, the old Optimus designer. I was really excited to watch this. Many finding the story bad but I loved it, the bad thing is that Barbie 2023 crap. There are some su#kers who think the movie is bad just because the cgi is bad compared to the 2007 movie #

The many, many action sequences are spectacularly conceived and executed, including a car chase on the Williamsburg Bridge that’s probably still tying up downtown traffic.
There are a few bright spots in Rise of the Beasts, but these are largely overshadowed by a lot of generic parts that would not be out of place in any of the previous six Transformers movies.
Lacks the ‘ick’ factor of the earlier Bay-directed efforts, and Fishback and Ramos do a great job as the token humans, but this is still just silly and derivative.
The problem with Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is the same problem faced by all of the installments — balancing the humanity with the metal.
The only people to feel sorry for in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts are Anthony Ramos (“In the Heights”) and Dominique Fishback (“Swarm”) who play actual humans trying to save the planet, when in real life they’re just humans trying to save a movie. They’re fine, but they can’t make a dent in the awfulness.
Its one of the best movies i watched, it braught my inner child back, everything about this movie is so perfect and special if you are a real fan of transformers. It's the movie of the decade, I really recommend this movie if you are bored or you dont have something to do it's such a joy bringer I love it alot

Ok, it wasn't Bumblebee, but it wasn't that bad. If you like this kind of movie, or like Transformers, this is probably your kind of movie. Plot was a bit slow and plodding, acting was cookie-cutter thin, special effects were ok. All in all, we'd rate this: "sit down with some popcorn and enjoy the ride on some cheap and easy entertainment."

As forgettable as it was trashy. The robot designs are as ugly as the casting. What happened to beautiful Hollywood stars looking cool in front of the cool explosions? Instead expect awful writing featuring inserted comments about race. There is a poor CGI quality compared to the series previous efforts and an absolute nonsense Autobot vs unicron plotline that entirely wastes the source material. I barely made it to the end.
