Comicbook.com’s Liam Crowley reviewed the movie for our site and praised the focus on the Transformers this time around. “Even decades into the franchise being a live-action phenomenon, Transformers continues to find new aspects of its expansive lore to bring to the big screen,” Crowley began.
“This time around that comes in the form of the Maximals, the sub-titular creatures in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. Picking up seven years after the events of Bumblebee, the yellow Volkswagen Beetle is once again reunited with his Autobot allies as well as a couple of new faces,” he added. “Optimus Prime is once again in center stage, but this time around he has Optimus Primal and the Maximals by his side. For fans desperate for that added emphasis on all things Transformers, Rise of the Beasts conquers all.”
