Movies that feel likeTransformers: The Last Knight (2017)

Humans and Transformers are at war. Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving our future lies buried in the secrets of the past, in the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Saving our world falls upon the shoulders of an unlikely alliance: Cade Yeager; Bumblebee; an English Lord; and an Oxford Professor.

If you loved Transformers: The Last Knight, the closest films we have are Bumblebee (2018), Ra.One (2011) and Ender's Game (2013). All three share Transformers: The Last Knight's kinetic and epic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Blue Beetle (2023).

The same robot mythology, told with a more human, character-first touch

The difference: A smaller-scale 1980s coming-of-age story, far gentler than Last Knight's chaos

On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie, on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns this is no ordinary yellow VW bug.

A rogue robot villain given terrifying physical form in the real world

A team forced to confront a cosmic force spiraling dangerously out of control

The difference: A mutant-team drama, more character-focused than a robot spectacle

The X-Men face their most formidable and powerful foe when one of their own, Jean Grey, starts to spiral out of control. During a rescue mission in outer space, Jean is nearly killed when she's hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. The X-Men must now band together to save her soul and battle aliens that want to use Grey's new abilities to rule the galaxy.
