Reviews
Transmutators (Resiklo) has met with a mixed to negative reception from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, the film holds a low rating of 2.9 out of 10, indicating largely unfavorable opinions among viewers. Reviewers have pointed out that while the movie aims to deliver an ambitious sci-fi action narrative set in a dystopian future, it struggles with execution. Some critics praised its creativity in showcasing Filipino talent in the sci-fi genre, highlighting its effort to present an original post-apocalyptic setting unlike typical entries in Philippine cinema. However, many reviews note that the film is hampered by subpar special effects, uneven pacing, and a convoluted plot. According to user reviews on IMDb, "The action sequences feel lackluster and sometimes fail to engage," while others appreciated the attempt at a serious sci-fi storyline within a local context. Rotten Tomatoes does not list a Tomatometer rating due to limited critical coverage but reflects similarly modest viewer interest. Overall, Transmutators is recognized for its ambition and unique premise but criticized for failing to deliver a consistently compelling and polished cinematic experience.
