Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

Its Transformer, so it has a lot of CGI, a lot of action, plenty of slow motion moments, but if it didn't it wouldn't be Transformers. The acting is good, the story is good, there is something for everyone. highly recommend watching the films in story order and not release, but if that's not your thing than watch how ever, they all good.

Great present

A new Transformers movie. They've been around long enough that everyone should have some familiarity with and be aware of the whole franchise by now. This one takes place in new York in 1994. It is thus set after the most recent film 'Bumblebee.' Which it does reference. That's the only real continuity in that way. You could get by without having seen that. But that general familiarity with the whole franchise concept that I mentioned is going to be a necessity to get into this. Basically: there's one group of good robots that look like animals. There's another group of bad robots who we've not seen in a live action Transformers movie before. Their leader is Scourge. Voiced by Peter Dinklage. I wouldn't have realised it was him if I'd not read it, so that does show what a good job of making him a character he does. Anyway, they fight over a maguffin. Because Scourge works for the planet eating robot Unicron [who was foreshadowed at the end of Transformers: the Last knight, but that film never got follow on]. Said Maguffin ends up on Earth. Every robot wants it. New York 1994. We have two humans: Noah. And Elena. Noah is ex military. Down on his luck. Looking for a break. Elena is an underappreciated museum intern. Both get involved with the Transformers when they turn up. And everyone goes after the Mcguffin. Globe trotting and robot battles ensue. This tries to balance humans and robots. Bumblebee could have done with a little more action from the latter, as good as it was otherwise. You do get a reasonably sized main cast of Transformers. One of the foremost being Mirage [Pete Davison] who is hip and straight talking and a dude! He could be annoying. But he just falls short of that. His bond of friendship with Noah works okay. Optimus Prime is in a thoroughly bad mood throughout all this film. Peter Cullen as his voice is as amazing as ever. It does give him decent material to work with. There's lots of spectacle. Eccentric characters who aren't annoying. Thankfully. And lots of robots fighting. It's all what you'd expect. This is perfectly.....good. It just never quite blows you away. The human characters were fine but I didn't quite care for them in the way I have for others in this franchise. There wasn't a great sense of jeopardy even with the stakes as they are. But it's watchable enough. Enough to just about rate four stars. The final scene tries to set something up. Which I would be surprised if it happens. There is one extra scene very early in the end credits. Which is worth seeing. A perfectly capable Transformers film. No more. No less. But still a good watch. The disc has the following language and subtitle options: Languages: English. French [Parisian]. Italian. Castilian Spanish. English audio descriptive. Subtitles: English. Danish. Dutch. Finnish. French [Parisian]. Italian. Norwegian. Castilian Spanish. Swedish. Three extras: Human affairs. Six mins about the human characters and actors. Life in the 90's. Six mins about how the setting was brought to life. The chase: six mins about how a chase scene was filmed. These are all quite good for what they are, and thus worth a watch.

Great movie both me and my daughter loved it

Fair film. Good quality. Not the best in the series but still worth a watch.

This review is for the movie and the 4K disc (Rise of the beasts) PLOT... During the '90s, a new faction of Transformers - the Maximals - join the Autobots as allies in the battle for Earth. Yet again another awesome Transformers movie, I'm a big fan of them all but rise of the beasts is the best yet, it still has its cheesy moments here and there but at the end of the day it gives you what you want and that's plenty action and generation one looking giant robots battling it out for earth once again! The Autobots and the Maximals both look amazing, the visual effects in the movie are top notch, great to see the epic Unicron return in his proper form and scale, which we've not seen since the animated movie, Shame we didn't see more of him though. Still plenty good entertainment to be had with plenty action, the human cast could be better most of the time but is ok and is necessary I guess for live action, the soundtrack is good and we even get a whiff of the original composed Unicron theme. Fun for all ages to enjoy and one of the most exciting summer blockbusters of 2023. The 4K Blu-ray picture looks great (also includes standard Blu-ray) Features are decent with deleted scenes and plenty featurettes (85mins total) Region FREE discs. Running time 127mins. 2023. English language movie, English subtitles plus multiple other language and subtitle options. The 4K steelbook looks very nice with cool unique art front and back.

Movie is good, but the physical product is not. Upon receiving it, the first thing I noticed was that the cover sleeve was actually torn, and this was underneath the plastic wrapping! Which means that it was already torn when they sealed it at the factory. Then after removing the plastic wrapping, I discovered to my horror that the blue casing was also broken. See pictures. Very poor QC. Thankfully the disc is ok and movie was great.

Optimus Prime and the Autobots take on their biggest challenge yet. When a new threat capable of destroying the entire planet emerges, they must team up with a with a powerful faction known as the Maximals. With the fate of humanity hanging in the balance, Noah and Elena will do whatever it takes to help the Transformers in the battle to save earth along with the Trans Warp Key. Just an amazing visual masterpiece, with spectacular special effects and a fantastic storyline.
