So, here we come , once again to the theater, snacks in hand, with the idea of “Oh brother here comes another Hollywood knock off.”, and while there were some minor similarities to another Hollywood blockbuster about skyscrapers this movie stands firmly on its own two feet!
We start out with a hostage situation, guy locked in a cabin with his family FBI in to calm things down only to have it escalate horribly!
Ten years later we see Dwayne Johnson getting ready for a meeting a long time in the making. He now has a family and his own business dealing with security for businesses. Early on in the film we find out that he has lost his leg, in the accident, and now wears a prosthetic limb. After some playful banter with his wife, played by a wonderfully re-newed Neve Campbell, and I must add, it was GREAT to see her back on the silver screen especially playing this kind of character. Anyway, back to it! As I said there is some playful banter between Dwayne and Neve and then of they go, her to a zoo, and him to his meeting.
Sam’s (Dwayne) meeting is with one of the most wealthy individuals in the world, who has build THE largest skyscraper in history. It is not long however before things go array (C’mon! You knew this was coming! Lol!) Of course all Hell breaks loose, but evrn though it happens fairly quickly it was still handled well, with the most interesting part being how they handled Neve’s character she is no soft-spoken Damsel in Distress, but rather a trained combat veteran who holds her own against Dwayne Johnson’s character. Both parents are smart and resourceful and ready for the action presented to them because of their training. This is the element that made the film most enjoyable!
There are several moments for gasping, arm-grabbing, bad cheering, as well as spots for the “oh man!” moments. The crew at ILM does a fantastic job on building the skyscraper which included flames, explosions and (my favorite part) debris! All masterfully done!
I actually find myself highly recommending this film! I would, in fact see it again (if normal tickets weren’t so expensive. Lol!). Anyway go and check out this film you’ll have a blast! (Yes, pun intended)

The Les Files With John C McGinley

In the studio today, Les gets to talk to legendary actor John C. McGinley who’s been a force on the stage and the screen. Hollywood has him on speed dial to play certain iconic roles that move the story such as Tom Card in Burn Notice, Brian Kelton on Chicago PD. Now the showrunners of the beloved cop sitcom Brooklyn 99 have brought him in to play Head to the Patrolman’s Union and lover of all things Billy Joel, Frank O’Sullivan. This new character is the antagonist for the final season of Brooklyn 99 and he’s a cross between Archie Bunker and Yosemite Sam.

Transformers Rise Of The Beast will definitely be a movie I’m going to watch repeatedly.

This was an epic movie overall. What else can I say without giving spoilers? Not a lot else, unfortunately, but I will try. So the start was interesting as it takes place in 1994, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts takes the audience on a globetrotting adventure with the Autobots and introduces a whole new faction of Transformers – the Maximals – to join them as allies in the existing battle for Earth. There are quite a few hidden gems to look for. The humor in this one was excellent definitely the 90s were everywhere in this movie.
The action was awesome as a Transformers movie should be and it does have a decent storyline. The film also has Great references to the older Transformer properties as well. As a major fan of the beast war series, it was awesome to see that version of the universe brought to the big screen. However, there were some moments of eh, been done many times. But just a couple despite being another Transformers movie. but this one did give more life to the series for me to be intrigued to see where it goes. The movie is a good 2 hours long so it goes at a good pace.
But with that being the only bad thing, in my opinion, it is a great theater movie. I think it added some freshness to the franchise. That with a nice blend of the 90s nostalgia. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. This is Chris, an honest review writer until the next movie, see you next time.
