Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

Optimus Prime and the Autobots are back on the big screen as they're teaming up with their ancestral heroes to stop an ancient threat from destroying the world.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is the latest installment of the Transformers movie universe where it thrusts moviegoers back to the 90s in an epic globetrotting battle between good and evil. In this movie, Optimus Prime and the Autobots are joining forces with the Maximals, a legendary faction of heroes led by Optimus Primal. The Maximals debuted in the Beast Wars cartoon a long time ago and with two heroic factions teaming up against an ancient menace, it's a dream team worth dreaming about.

With Prime and Bumblebee looking retro in this movie, this movie welcomes fresh additions to the Autobot faction such as the motorbike Autobot named Arcee and a 993-spec Porsche 911 Autobot named Mirage. Yes, there's a Porsche in the film because 2023 is the year of the Porsche, this is why a 993-spec 911 earned a starring role in this Transformers adventure. As they team up with Primal, Cheetor, and the other Maximals, they're up against a renegade faction plotting to destroy the universe; the Terrorcons consisting of Scourge, Terrorcon Freezer, Nightbird, and Battletrap.

It's been a long time coming for fans of the Transformers franchise as they've got their wish to see Autobots and Maximals, well some of them, teaming up on the big screen, and this dream team is worthy of a conversation after watching the whole film. 

With a high-octane blend of action, suspense, drama, and a few laughs in store, this epic rollercoaster ride is knife edge from start to finish and this is going to be one of the must-watch films of the summer, well, it's classified superhero flick because the Autobots and Maximals were really superheroes in the Transformers multiverse and although creepy when you look at them for a long time, they sure know how to act like superheroes in this newest adventure. Let's hope for more like them in their future adventures.

This is Transformers like no other and Rise of the Beasts truly is a blowout for the fans of the franchise. In other words...SMASHING.
