- Transformers Movies Tier List -

Transformers One (2024)

---

• absolute cinema
• this movie got me into transformers so it will always be my #1
• I need The Fall and that entire scene tattoed in my brain
• I'm sad that we'll probably never see this iteration of D-16 ever again.... I miss my wife D-16 already 😔

Bumblebee (2018)

---

• I will be like every other transformers fan and gas up the cybertron opening scene. it's just too cool!!
• Charlie and Bee are one of the best-written human/transformer pair 💛
• this movie is like, everything you could've want out of a self-contained "transformer and their human buddy" story. yes it's focused on humans but Charlie's story WORKS and her relationship with Bumblebee is really precious 🥺

Transformers (2007)

---

• honestly peak
• without a doubt the best one out of all the bayverse movies
• it's just too iconic atp
• every time prime tries so hard to protect Sam I'm just like "why bro you've only known him for 3 DAYS". I find it kind of funny how his only point of contact with humanity is SAM of all people and yet he still finds humanity great.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023)

---

• THIS IS PEAK TO ME OK????
• I watched this movie in theaters before I got into transformers and at the time I thought it was pretty decent
• HOWEVERRR after multiple rewatches it became my comfort movie and I grew to really like it
• the first 30 minutes are really, really good. the museum fight too.
• I need more of Noah and Mirage 💙
• imo this movie has some of the best human characters in the entire Transformers franchise

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)

---

• way better than ROTF
• the Bayverse movies should've ended here. #Bayverse trilogy truther rise up
• the opening sequence in Shanghai is 👍👍👍
• I was a little lost during the last act though, it was hard to follow along which group of characters was trying to do what
• bonus points for Megatron being a single mother

The Transformers: The Movie (1986)

---

• I can't tell if this is peak or mid and I mean this in the best way possible
• it's an hour and a half long fever dream
• the music really threw me off but by the time they got to Junkion I was like yeah why the hell not
• I profess I do not see why some fans regard it as the best Transformers movie ever with no flaws whatsoever
• the character deaths in this didn't feel impactful at all. maybe it's because I've only watched season 1 and half of season 2 of G1

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)

---

• it was a very long 2 and a half hours
• if I think about the plot or really anything that's happening on screen for more than 2 seconds my brain hurts
• in what world is Sam worthy of the matrix lmao. I guess he deserved it for saving the world twice.

Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014)

---

• yeah this movie was kinda shit
• the dinobots almost made it good. almost.
• obligatory I'M AN INVENTOR and AGE OF CONSENT
• Cade Yeager is such a nothing character. I couldn't care less about him.

Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)

---

• straight up shit from a butt. not an enjoyable movie.
• going in I knew this movie SUCKED but I didn't think it would be this bad. it was bad.
• people weren't kidding when they say the editing is headache inducing. holy shit I had to rewind so many scenes because one character would be talking or doing something, but before they could properly finish, it would abruptly cut to the next thing
• why is Cogman lowkey the best part about this movie
• AOE was bad but at least it had *something* going for it. the only thing TLK had was the fact that Optimus and Megatron are hot.
• my highlight for this movie was optimus putting the sword under his boobies
