Dog’s Movie House: “Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts” Is How You Reinvigorate A Franchise- “The Flash,” Not So Much!

Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here back after two glorious weeks of vacation to return with a whole bunch of stuff for the Movie House! Today we’re talking two early summer tentpoles that will satisfy their fans with varying degrees of success. First we have “Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts” which continues the robot-driven franchise’s move toward coherent, character driven storytelling and away from Michael Bay’s choatic form of filmmaking. Then we have “The Flash” the long anticipated film that marks the DC cinematic universe’s dive into their version of the multiverse. Unfortanately, “The Flash” is too busy with fan service and Easter Egg gimmicks to fully realize it’s potential, making for a fitfully entertaining cinematic experience that, at well over two hours, still feels frustratingly incomplete!
