So I watched Rise of the Beasts. I liked a lot! Surprised by how much I enjoyed despite how cynical I was of it months ago. It's a solid 8/10 for me. Here is my short spoiler free review.
As for scaling wise, here's the juice. I won't talk much about it as I'll wait for others to see the film, but here's the summary:
Plot is the same format as the usual Bayverse, but simpler and straight to the point. Characters are very good and likeable. Distinguishable from one another. CGI, action and soundtrack are great. Music choice is very 90s inspired. Not as good as Bayverse in the visual department, but still good in its own right. Prime, Primal, Mirage and Scourge are my favorites easily. Noah is my favorite human protag out of all the movies, feels like a good blend between Cade and Sam. The dynamic between robots is really good and fun, they feel like they actually get along with each other.
It's not the most outstanding ever, but good god I enjoyed it.
As for scaling wise, here's the juice. I won't talk much about it as I'll wait for others to see the film, but here's the summary:
Not much in terms of AP, the best stuff are re-entry shit that are kinda iffy. Only a bunch of Tier 8 stuff. The highest thing I could get is re-entry out of Stratosphere, which would yield Low 7-C, but not much beyond that, and that only works as a possibly rating that I'll explain in the future. There is a supernova statement but it scales to no one.
Speed is quite good. There are a lot bullet and missile dodging and Stratosphere flying which will likely get Supersonic to Hypersonic results. Hax is pretty good. A lot of cool stuff from the bots here and there.
Scaling wise, Scourge and Optimus are the top dogs by far. Battletrap, Airrazor and Primal are somewhat below them. The rest are all in the Bumblebee levels and are much lower than the aforementioned characters. The best they can do is stagger the top 5 I just mentioned.
Scourge, Prime, Primal, Battletrap, Airrazor = At least 8-A, possibly Low 7-C
The rest = 8-A
That's what I'm thinking so far. Ratings are probably gonna change one we start properly calcing feats so don't take this as my final word.
