Want to watch ' Transformers: Rise of the Beasts' on your TV, phone, or tablet? Hunting down a streaming service to buy, rent, download, or watch the Steven Caple Jr.-directed movie via subscription can be a challenge, so we here at Moviefone want to do the work for you. It's just a boring show for adults that has no real feeling of stakes, doesn't reward investment, and offers no hook beyond seeing the original transformers combined in a few bare bones episodes, but they're not in disguise, and we hardly see them in action.See All Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Showtimes Even the blast effects during fighting are a miss "plip plip" sounds without any oomph.
To make matters worse is that the voice acting seems to be done by actual robots there's no emotion or any life in any of the dialogue. Then we see Sky Lynx and its alt form is never even shown. It struck me that Bumblebee thinks it's a better idea to run away from a big threat in Earthrise rather than transform into a car and drive like hell. But no, the al forms are almost never seen, they're just robots, talking, depressingly talking, and running. During both current seasons my kids asked me when the Transformers would stop talking (slooooooowly, so full of pretentious "meaning") and would actually transform. Characters seem half asleep, nothing much happens, even when Siege transitions into Earthrise. Going into Siege I was expected there would be a lot of action and story packed into the episodes, considering 6x24 minutes isn't a lot to work with time-wise.
Let's be honest here, these are basically expended commercials for the (admittedly wonderful) new WFC toy line. Jump to 2020/2021 in cartoon land, or "animated series" and we have to make do with seasons consisting of 6 episodes each. Recently I've been rewatching the G1 Transformers cartoons with my kids and while it didn't age quite as well as I imagined, it's still fun to watch, and my kids love it.
