What Rotten Tomatoes Reviews Are Saying About Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts

The positive reviews of "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts" share the consensus that it's a fun time at the movies. Furthermore, unlike previous films about the Autobots and Decepticons, the franchise's seventh installment has plenty of heart to complement the machine-driven carnage. The Hollywood Reporter's critic believes that "Rise of the Beasts" will entertain long-term fans, especially those who grew up playing with the toys that paved the way for the movies, cartoons, video games, and other media. "These Hasbro action figures, and their onscreen incarnations, are capable of reducing even the most mature, jaded adult into an awestruck child who just wants to get down on the floor and play with them."

Elsewhere, ComicBook.com's reviewer was impressed with the action setpieces and the film's entertainment value. "The action is pulse-pounding. The summer movie season has been in full throttle for just over a month, and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts sends that popcorn blockbuster momentum into full gear."

Steven Caple Jr.'s direction also received some positive feedback from critics, with Uproxx noting that he shows a genuine affection for the characters that goes a long way. The reviewer also gave the movie props for including some memorable '90s needle drops, so viewers can expect a banging soundtrack.
