I asked my dad if the new Spiderman ATM, Transformers ROTB, or this film was his favorite. He said Blue Beetle, and he was telling me that it was very 80's in production, pacing, and style. His parents are from Mexico and he was born in 1969 in the US
@@MaxRamos8 BB is not my favorite this year, not by a long shot, BUT, it was a lot of fun, and it does have that old school adventure in the city vibe that modern super hero movies are lacking.

As a Mexican I’m biased but having El Rey and Kickstart my Heart IN THE SAME MOVIE is enough for me. 11/10 loved it (I was drunk while watching it there’s that too💀)
george lopez coming in with La Chona and having "Puro Sonora" on the window shield was so funny but i also really liked it cause my grandpa is from sonora
Blue Beetle is no joke my favorite DC comic hero. So much potential. Such a shame he doesn't get any love. Highly recommend the original Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle run.
Blue beetle is awesome. When I was young I always toyed with the idea of my own hero character origin. It was essentially blue beetle before I even knew about him lol.
The thing is, Blue Beetle's whole thing is being a really funny teenager, they HAD to put jokes all around to deliver on what we expect from Blue Beetle. However, given how a lot of what isnt the jokes was actually great, including the emotional moments, I feel like there is some great potential for their next movies focusing on more serious superheroes
Hopefully Gunn can lead them to that. But given WB's track record, they might just gonna take a superhero with great potential and immediately squander it like Shazam. Shazam has so much potential and have a lot of promises, but then Shazam 2 came, and it was so bad.
As someone who has read alot of Blue Beetle the comparing the comedy in modern super hero movies to the comedy in Blue Beetle is not even remotely reasonable. No they did not in fact HAVE to make the movie un funny with overplayed corny lame jokes
They kidnapped a member of their family and it’s a trained private militia. They kind of had to go in willing to kill. Jaime understands he has a powerful weapon at his disposal that can easily hurt people and just wants to be responsible and avoid killing. I don’t see an issue there.
It's because Charlie thinks like a common person who's never been in a situation of life or death or probably never seen someone die or overdose or be shot at. 6:45 it sucks but he's not entirely wrong.
@@mychaeljones7526 it feels disjointed when jaime has no reason to hold back. but does so, because of the plot. sure, he didnt need to kill him, but he had the power to neutralize the enemy without killing him. but he simply chose to do nothing, and he get punished for it. i understand not wanting to kill. i just think there's a time and a place, also, i dont get why DC is full of "this thing can make any weapon you want that does exactly what you want it to, and they ALWAYS do the most boring shit EVERY SINGLE TIME! also spoiler alert... in the end of the battle he was going for the kill, but got stopped by the scarab.
As a Blue Beetle fan, yeah he has a no kill rule, he trys to stop his scarab from killing when possible. It's one of his biggest struggles is trying to stop the scarab from killing or it being controlled by the Reach.
@excitedcat9517 No Blue Beetle doesn't kill. The idea behind him is that he has one of the universes deadly weapons, and he uses it for good, unlike its origin purposes which is to take over the host and claim planets. But he uses it for good if that answers your question.
@evangingerson1271 Maybe in a run I haven't read lol. I read a couple but not all of his comics. I don't think it's likely though. Also there's 2 other Blue Beetles other than Jaime, which he is the 3rd one, so I'm not as knowledgeable on those 2.
I’d give this movie a 8/10 it’s definitely a comic book orgin movie but one that I actually enjoyed and had so much fun watching because of the fun everyone is actually having. The movie has personality because of the family’s relationships because Jaimes fighting and enthusiasm while fighting . This movie is not boring and I enjoyed the emotions and fight scenes! I felt like a kid
How? The comedy was not good, the cgi was pretty bad for its budget, remember the scene when the grandma pulls out a minigun and her hair came down? Like what the fuck kind of punchline is that, i seriously dont understand how people are loving this movie, id give it a 2/10
i think its a solid 7, a bit "we have antman 1 at home". but many of the jokes didnt land. also the fact some of the dialogue is in spanglish makes it kinda hard to follow for people who doesnt speak spanish. overall, a far more enjoyable experience than the flash. and in my opinion, it will get a cult following in the future. it has that old school fun adventure with a bit of romance we used to get in the 80's/90's.
I don't think you can really blame the Blue Beetle producers for making the movie funny and quirky. That's exactly what he is, he's a fun enjoyable guy. He's like Spiderman but perhaps even less serious. It's what's enjoyable about him imo
I think being Mexican/ Latino helps elevate this movie. It’s really earnest about the culture. Like there’s some stuff you wouldn’t understand unless you grew up in a Latino household
Well I think Jamie has a personal no kill rule because he has the power to do so. What is his family going to do? Not shoot? Not defend themselves? They don't have super powers, they're not on the same playing field as BB.
Blue beetle being a Hispanic hero is one of the reasons I loved the film so much. Seeing people like us in the spotlight is practically nonexistent (especially Mexican and Mexican American) and they did a really great job portraying a hispanic family. It might not be a masterpiece in terms of originality but the actors and the smaller details easily made it my favorite film I've seen this year. Obviously im biased but Xolo Maridueña did an incredible job and i loved just about everything about this movie. It was a really beautiful feeling to see my little brother so happy watching this in the theater.

Blue Beatle is a very comedic character, he laughs away his pain... but at the same time, he is a very random, but very wholesome DC character. Even in the new Injustice game his character was extremally good so good in fact i think it's the reason he got his own movie. Blue Beatle is such a likable character.
@@Shmecklejordan Not true, i believe characters like wonder woman and aqua man are very shallow and are just bloated unimaginative creations. I think this of most DC characters, Spider Man from Marvel has depth as well, relatability and is an overall "Mostly" well written and an easily likable character. These traits don't align with I would say 75% of DC characters in my opinion. Blue Beetle I personally would say is a stand out character from the crowd although overshadowed and overlooked by larger DC hero's being the rest of the justice league like Superman and Batman.
This is my favorite Charlie series. I love hearing him talk about newly released movies since he does such a great job reviewing them. Definitely have to check out Blue Beetle myself!
I just loved how the Aunt/villain didn’t do anything but say Exposition. Otherwise, as a Blue Beetle fan, I dug it. Action wise, very fun. I dug the family for the most part, loved that Ted Kord wasn’t just glossed over. The villains were lacking though. That scene with Cypress Hill scene was very sick. If you know Blue Beetle they have some of his classic weapons that i was sure would be missing, like the staples, the battering ram, and of course the swords and canons. I’d love to see more from this, especially with the end credit scene.
@@cornishcat11 the funny thing is you know deep down that running away from God like that is vain you don't believe in him because if you did you wouldn't be able to get away with stuff like that
Watched the film last night with friends and it was fantastic. Do not take it seriously most of the time. There are some sad moments, but the comedy was actually great. The entire theater was laughing at almost the entire film. If you’re hating on this film go take a look in the mirror and watch a movie to have fun and not to critique and criticize for not being a dark masterpiece. It’s a film it doesn’t have to be one it just has to be something to enjoy with friends.
Brother, people like to see good movies, not just dark masterpieces. Comedies and light hearted super heroes flicks can still be done well. Not everyone just turns their brain off to watch movies. Movies are art, not just stimulation. I didn't see the movie, I'm just talking about your sentiment.
@@markojuly I completely understand that, my point was that a lot of people have been hating on this film for being lighter in tone. Not every film has to be a masterpiece if it is enjoyable and fun.

There's three Blue Beetles. The most recent one is heavily inspired by The Guyver, which was a much darker, bloodier story. That might explain the tonal issues.

I went to Puerto Rico last year and was at the bar talking to some people. They said they were there filming a movie, Blue Beetle. Little did I know they meant DC Blue Beetle, because when I looked it up they shot parts in Puerto Rico.
Not everyone in the universe likes batman? We personally do but have you never heard the question what if they were real? I feel like comparing Ted Kord's blue beetle to batman there will be some debates because of the damage batman does to his city or really anywhere he goes
The best way to describe this movie is “really fun”. It has its flaws, and honestly most of the concepts have been done better in other films. But in a few years when I’m board and looking for a solid “fun” movie to watch I’ll turn this one on
The thing about Blue Beetle being anti-killing is that he’s basically the same as Superman, where if he isn’t morally against killing, he would basically be a planetary level threat. The Scarab is capable of manifesting planet-destroying nukes if Jaime really wanted it to, he just doesn’t, because duh. Anyway, it’s sort of weird that he’s down with his family killing in the movie, but at least they kept the bit about him not being a killer because that’s definitely against his code.
Honestly, I only interested with this film cause of Xolo Maridueña. I think he's such a talented actor from the new and younger generations of actors. I really like his performance in Cobra Kai and some other animated works as well. But his performance in Cobra Kai is easily the highlight and the best in the show alongside William Zabka's Johnny.
I respect Charlie for having zero expectations for superhero films but still going out there to see them. Also I love how Charlie’s reviews always end up aligning very very closely to Jeremy Jahns’ in terms of their views and what they say
On my way home today i saw a Blue beetle poster and i thought "Man i wish Charlie would review this one" AND OMG I COME HOME TO THIS VIDEO THANK YOU CHARLIE

I saw this movie was coming out and I was worried for it. Blue Beatle was the best part of Young Justice season 2. And the guy playing Jaime also did a pretty good job in Cobra Kai. I think I might see it with a friend, but who knows. Hopefully i find it too be decent
From what I've seen, this movie is REALLY good at capturing the hispanic audience. Honestly it feels like a movie that successfully represents hispanics(not in a pandering or ham-fisted way) and I think there's a lot about it that might not click nearly as well if you aren't in tune with that culture. it's not a perfect movie, but it's extremely effective at introducing Blue Beetle and making it have it's own 'tone', standing apart from other "similar" characters. It's nothing revolutionary, it's not gonna resonate with everyone the same way, but it's very effective at what it does, which is a satisfying array of different things (heartfelt family dynamics, social commentary of _multiple_ hispanic related things that all mix/work together, finding purpose when becoming an adult out of collage, fun action hero movie, referential/cultural and practical comedy; there's just a really solid amount of things to dig on, and it didn't feel like any of it was half-assed), especially if you come from a background that is close to the demographic it targets and represents; all these things made it super fun to watch. I wouldn't really change it in any significant way. (the only thing coming to mind that might have been a little half-assed would be the 'no killing' sub-plot, but that is introduced at a moment that feels natural for him to not wanna go to that extreme and hold out hope he can turn everything back to normal, he just sticks by it until he almost doesn't and it works well. the movie is less concerned about his "moral arch" and more about his own identity, I agree they should point out the differences between him and his family or just better define his stance on the matter, but it works as it is because he's one talking about what _he_ doesn't wanna be, relating to his "purpose"/"identity" and what his own boundaries are for the person he is becoming, it's not really concerning itself with whether he believes in it or not on a wider social political level.) It is a pretty simple super hero origin story, but using that as a negative is like saying "the Beatles are too catchy, this song of theirs is too catchy so I don't like it", it's like saying "this strawberry cake is sweet, it taste like strawberry". It wasn't such a negative review tbf, and it's an honest opinion to say "I'm too tired of classic superhero origin stories", but it's wierd to fault the movie for it when the movie is deliberately going that route for it's skeleton and adding the extra texture/flavors on other aspects of it (such as the themes of exploiting communities of lower class and gentrification. As well as writing good hispanic humor and classic hispanic family values/dynamic with a character that is in an awkward but relatable spot for a lot of young adults; Spiderman nowadays is either still in collage or has Ironman money to back him up, so again- it's actually a pretty refreshing start for a simple 'everyman' protagonist). point is- there's more to this movie then what some critics seem to convey, maybe I just had a really good siting, but I honestly think some of the unique merits of the movie are flying through the head of many, or it's simply not resonating as well as it is for other audiences. I'd give it an 8/10 at the very least, but if looking at it more "objectively" for a more "general" audience I could at most lower it to a 7.5, '6'(60%) is too low for how much this movie gets right despite being a 'standard superhero origin movie'. one last side note I like is that they actually managed to not make him sound like a corny "now I'm gonna be a hero" youngster cliche, it's really all about his family and his 'place'/'purpose'/'identity' for his life, I just really think Charlie missed a lot on this one, but it's alright- even an amazing strawberry cake with dark chocolate or cheescake is not gonna taste all that special if you're fed up with having other strawberry deserts for over a month.
If you or your parents are Latino, go watch the movie. The music choices make it worthwhile on their own, it's super exciting to hear songs from your childhood in a movie for once.

I did think it was hilarious that a big point was that Jaime wasn’t a killer and all that, meanwhile the uncle is literally massacring grunts with the big beetle, spearing them through the chest
The reason why Spider-Man 2 from 2004 will always be incredible and beloved and regarded as one of the best superhero movies of all time is because while it’s a really amazing action movie with 10/10 fight scenes, it’s also got so many layers to the emotional side of it. Every single character in Spider-Man 2 is trying to find themselves, especially Peter and Otto but also Harry, MJ and Aunt May. There are constant emotional struggles throughout the whole film and they never feel out of place, they all serve purpose to the overall story being presented. The scene with Peter and May outside with the little boy, to this day, might be the best scene in comic book movie history. And then yeah, on top of that, the clock tower/train fight (especially the extended version) is one of the best fight scenes in cinema history. TLDR; superhero movies shouldn’t be afraid to add emotion and personal storytelling the whole way through. This is what made S2 so perfect.
the movie is dope if ur mexican or a latino. its amazing at implementing its references and captures the dynamic of mexican families in the US. A lot of the humor lands way better if u know what is referenced or can understand spanish. Having humor even when life kinda sucks is very common for at least mexicans and other latinos.
You CAN like a movie even if other influencers or famous people dislike it. It's their opinion. We're here for those said opinions & we're allowed not to agree with them.

@@hatefulentity5331"we"???? Nah that's you. The Spiderman movie was great and the general public would agree. But if that's your opinion that's cool 👍
I honestly don't think having jokes everywhere is the problem, I think it's the abysmal quality of any attempts at comedy. The spiderverse movies are so full of comedic bits but it never feels like someone is dropping a punchline.

i think deadpool started this thing where every movie had to be a comedy, you could see the transition to it in the avenger series a bit but more for the standalone movies. Deadpool did very well (to me) with that kind of writing, but the execs must not realize that IS deadpool. from the comics.
Idk, I think it started more with GOTG than it did with Deadpool. I don't think there's a single movie we can really pin the blame on, but The Avengers, GOTG, and Deadpool are probably the 3 biggest influences

I loved this movie so much, I thought it was perfectly hilarious to keep everyone entertained while also delivering plenty of heavy hearted scenes. The movie starts out goofy and then gets serious when it needs to. Not sure what Charlie is talking about with it never being serious, it isn’t meant to be super serious since Jamie is a hero who tries to have fun because of his rough background. I loved how it was true to the original story while being different and special in its own way
Took my kids to see it and they absolutely loved it. I was so ready to crap on it for being mid and predictable, but then I saw my youngest at the edge of his seat grinning ear to ear and realized... Oh yeah some movies are for children 😮
What I really enjoyed about this movie was the fact that it was really relatable to me as a Latino like with all the jokes nicknames music choices at times and even references to El Chavo’s other show El Chapulín Colorado. I think Charlie missed out on these parts because he doesn’t relate to them but glad he still enjoyed it
Completely honest, this director, who is Puertorrican, is i think his biggest movie he has ever directed. He's only directed about three, i consider that a pretty new. So far this movie is really good for a new director! If we ever get another movie from this, i hope this director is able to learn from this movie and be able to make a greater one. I liked the visuals a lot in terms of setting (me being completely biased because this movie was filmed in my home town) but they made everything blend in really well and in terms of representation, (im not Mexican) everything hit close to home, and i personally like movies where i can relate to. 9.5/10
I loved every bit of this movie my family loved it, it was a blast ❤️ there's lots of mexican culture elements, parteles su madre. This movie easily best and full of heart in the dc universe, i get that people dont agree cause of the cultural part, but you have all the movies guys this one is ours and the people that are open to watch and just go with the goofy nature of mexicans, mucho amor no se pelen canijos🎉.
Yes! It might not mean much to most people but especially as someone who's Mexican American it meant a lot to me and I loved it. The fact that my little brother and I saw a superhero that looked like us, had a family like ours, and spoke our language was everything.
Just in general, the movie will probably do pretty great in Latinoamérica. Me and my friends started singing along to Soda Stereo, got super excited listening to Calle 13, etc. The cultural aspect makes the movie like 30% better lol.
The director of the movie, Angel Manuel Soto originally wanted to do a Bane movie where he explores the hardships faced in Latin America, where Bane will be portrayed as an anti-hero (like what Sony is doing) Since the movie's version of Carapax (who is completely different from the comics) has a backstory that seems to a draft of that Bane movie, I think the director just didn't want Blue Beetle to kill his OC character
The movie was way better than it had any right to be. The action had a bunch of wrestling inspiration which I dig. The soundtrack had Cyberpunk Edgerunners vibes. Same goes for the setting actually. I like each member of the Reyas family. Spoilers The scene with his Dad hits like T'Challa in the astral plain. The funniest bit was when the Uncle was screaming in the background about his truck's damage and being salty about it later. I actually liked Carapace by the end. The movie harkens back to 2010s where the superhero stuff is standard but the drama around the superhero stuff elevates it. Like Arrow or Supergirl. 7/10, unironically the best DC Live Action movie since The Batman
Best Super Hero film I have seen in years. Great characters, a proper story, CGI polished, tears, laughter, action it had everything! Cinema I went to was half full which in this day and age is a good result! Loads more than I have seen for Marvel & DC movies over the last few years (apart from latest SM film) Popularity and Comic prices do not make a good film.....Antman 3 and Wakanda Forever were poor IMO.......Solid 9/10 for me. And I'm going to see it again........haven't done that since the 1980's
I feel like this should’ve been a Netflix series. They clearly couldn’t write an overarching villian and the family element would’ve done wonders in a series.

The thing is these cringe jokes are a waste of potential comedy. Not every single sentence can be a punchline
The problem is the fact that every superhero movie has half assed humor in it, so Blue Beetle being funny isn't going to put butts in seats.
This ain’t erwanmeter😂
They kidnapped a member of their family and it’s a trained private militia.
They kind of had to go in willing to kill.
Jaime understands he has a powerful weapon at his disposal that can easily hurt people and just wants to be responsible and avoid killing.
I don’t see an issue there.
It's because Charlie thinks like a common person who's never been in a situation of life or death or probably never seen someone die or overdose or be shot at. 6:45 it sucks but he's not entirely wrong.
@@mychaeljones7526you can tell bro grew up in the suburbs 😂
@@mychaeljones7526 it feels disjointed when jaime has no reason to hold back. but does so, because of the plot. sure, he didnt need to kill him, but he had the power to neutralize the enemy without killing him. but he simply chose to do nothing, and he get punished for it.
i understand not wanting to kill. i just think there's a time and a place, also, i dont get why DC is full of "this thing can make any weapon you want that does exactly what you want it to, and they ALWAYS do the most boring shit EVERY SINGLE TIME!

Does he kill?
@excitedcat9517 No Blue Beetle doesn't kill. The idea behind him is that he has one of the universes deadly weapons, and he uses it for good, unlike its origin purposes which is to take over the host and claim planets. But he uses it for good if that answers your question.
He has probably killed before
@evangingerson1271 Maybe in a run I haven't read lol. I read a couple but not all of his comics. I don't think it's likely though. Also there's 2 other Blue Beetles other than Jaime, which he is the 3rd one, so I'm not as knowledgeable on those 2.
To be fair, Jaime was definitely going to kill that guy if the scarab didn’t stop him 😂
@@PopePackwell the scrarab supposedly does what it wants from what i heard
I’d give this movie a 8/10 it’s definitely a comic book orgin movie but one that I actually enjoyed and had so much fun watching because of the fun everyone is actually having. The movie has personality because of the family’s relationships because Jaimes fighting and enthusiasm while fighting . This movie is not boring and I enjoyed the emotions and fight scenes! I felt like a kid
How? The comedy was not good, the cgi was pretty bad for its budget, remember the scene when the grandma pulls out a minigun and her hair came down? Like what the fuck kind of punchline is that, i seriously dont understand how people are loving this movie, id give it a 2/10
i think its a solid 7, a bit "we have antman 1 at home". but many of the jokes didnt land. also the fact some of the dialogue is in spanglish makes it kinda hard to follow for people who doesnt speak spanish.
overall, a far more enjoyable experience than the flash. and in my opinion, it will get a cult following in the future. it has that old school fun adventure with a bit of romance we used to get in the 80's/90's.

If the blue beetle guy laughed at it though, that is weird.
It's their joking attitude towards the killing that rubbed me the wrong way. That's my only real complaint about the movie tho
Blue beetle being a Hispanic hero is one of the reasons I loved the film so much. Seeing people like us in the spotlight is practically nonexistent (especially Mexican and Mexican American) and they did a really great job portraying a hispanic family. It might not be a masterpiece in terms of originality but the actors and the smaller details easily made it my favorite film I've seen this year. Obviously im biased but Xolo Maridueña did an incredible job and i loved just about everything about this movie. It was a really beautiful feeling to see my little brother so happy watching this in the theater.

My favorite part of the movie was when blue beetle said "it's beetlin' time." Truly inspirational.
Blue Beatle is a very comedic character, he laughs away his pain... but at the same time, he is a very random, but very wholesome DC character. Even in the new Injustice game his character was extremally good so good in fact i think it's the reason he got his own movie. Blue Beatle is such a likable character.
He's the main character in season 2 of young justice
@@Shmecklejordan Not true, i believe characters like wonder woman and aqua man are very shallow and are just bloated unimaginative creations. I think this of most DC characters, Spider Man from Marvel has depth as well, relatability and is an overall "Mostly" well written and an easily likable character. These traits don't align with I would say 75% of DC characters in my opinion. Blue Beetle I personally would say is a stand out character from the crowd although overshadowed and overlooked by larger DC hero's being the rest of the justice league like Superman and Batman.
Beatle?
This is my favorite Charlie series. I love hearing him talk about newly released movies since he does such a great job reviewing them. Definitely have to check out Blue Beetle myself!

I dug the family for the most part, loved that Ted Kord wasn’t just glossed over. The villains were lacking though. That scene with Cypress Hill scene was very sick. If you know Blue Beetle they have some of his classic weapons that i was sure would be missing, like the staples, the battering ram, and of course the swords and canons.

Watched the film last night with friends and it was fantastic. Do not take it seriously most of the time. There are some sad moments, but the comedy was actually great. The entire theater was laughing at almost the entire film. If you’re hating on this film go take a look in the mirror and watch a movie to have fun and not to critique and criticize for not being a dark masterpiece. It’s a film it doesn’t have to be one it just has to be something to enjoy with friends.

Idk why people are hating on it so much, it was pretty good
I thought this movie had a lot of heart, I really enjoyed it.
There's three Blue Beetles. The most recent one is heavily inspired by The Guyver, which was a much darker, bloodier story. That might explain the tonal issues.
What's the other two?
@@freddice8156Ted Kord and Dan Garret, Ted Kord is the second Blue Beetle and was a decent part about the film
And Dan Garret is the original Blue Beetle that was created in 1939
Jaime's version is from 2006
@@freddice8156 One's a golden age hero, the other is basically just Batman, a detective with gadgets, albeit not as serious or dark. At least from what I remember.
I think this movie could’ve done a lot better had they just marketed it a bit more. most people didn’t even know it existed.
I think I heard the strikes affected them being able to do the usual press tour marketing stuff
I think it’s because from one scene from the trailer, the character called Batman a fascist
In my country i saw a lot of marketing.
And the more they spend on marketing the more they need to make it.
Sometimes the marketing is bad or don't appeal to people.
I'm never gonna wath this movies.
So you're telling me that if this wasn't a superhero movie and just a movie based on this family, it would've been amazing?
I went to Puerto Rico last year and was at the bar talking to some people. They said they were there filming a movie, Blue Beetle. Little did I know they meant DC Blue Beetle, because when I looked it up they shot parts in Puerto Rico.
That's actually pretty sick
The director shouldn’t have slandered Batman, who is the only character that is literally keeping DC on life support right now.
not really dc only fails in movies they are better than marvel in cartoons,comics,animated movies,and tv showd
If you watch the movie, you'd know that the line "Batman's a fascist" isn't a jab at Batman as much as it is a jab at Uncle Rudy's extreme stances
Don’t take it too seriously, I mean look at j Jonah Jameson always slandering spider man and people love that guy
Not everyone in the universe likes batman? We personally do but have you never heard the question what if they were real? I feel like comparing Ted Kord's blue beetle to batman there will be some debates because of the damage batman does to his city or really anywhere he goes
The best way to describe this movie is “really fun”. It has its flaws, and honestly most of the concepts have been done better in other films. But in a few years when I’m board and looking for a solid “fun” movie to watch I’ll turn this one on
They should've focused more on the family element like Shazam 1 did, that's why people loved it so much
So sad Shazam died because of the DCEU crap...
Hope it comes back somehow, same for Peacemaker
I mean personally I felt that they focused on it as much as they needed to, the real letdown was the villains imo, as they're kinda bland.

@@jeffpesos420 wait legit?
I had 0 expectations going on but I actually really enjoyed it. There was a lot of humor, but to me it wasn’t cringy and was actually really funny
hi flub i liked ur tribute to gd video
The thing about Blue Beetle being anti-killing is that he’s basically the same as Superman, where if he isn’t morally against killing, he would basically be a planetary level threat. The Scarab is capable of manifesting planet-destroying nukes if Jaime really wanted it to, he just doesn’t, because duh. Anyway, it’s sort of weird that he’s down with his family killing in the movie, but at least they kept the bit about him not being a killer because that’s definitely against his code.
Honestly, I only interested with this film cause of Xolo Maridueña. I think he's such a talented actor from the new and younger generations of actors. I really like his performance in Cobra Kai and some other animated works as well. But his performance in Cobra Kai is easily the highlight and the best in the show alongside William Zabka's Johnny.
I respect Charlie for having zero expectations for superhero films but still going out there to see them. Also I love how Charlie’s reviews always end up aligning very very closely to Jeremy Jahns’ in terms of their views and what they say
On my way home today i saw a Blue beetle poster and i thought "Man i wish Charlie would review this one" AND OMG I COME HOME TO THIS VIDEO THANK YOU CHARLIE
What's interesting about this movie is that there was a whole meme advertisement campaign in Latin America

I think if we got a blue beetle movie earlier in the DCEU we’d be a lot less fatigued to actually enjoy it
From what I've seen, this movie is REALLY good at capturing the hispanic audience. Honestly it feels like a movie that successfully represents hispanics(not in a pandering or ham-fisted way) and I think there's a lot about it that might not click nearly as well if you aren't in tune with that culture. it's not a perfect movie, but it's extremely effective at introducing Blue Beetle and making it have it's own 'tone', standing apart from other "similar" characters. It's nothing revolutionary, it's not gonna resonate with everyone the same way, but it's very effective at what it does, which is a satisfying array of different things (heartfelt family dynamics, social commentary of _multiple_ hispanic related things that all mix/work together, finding purpose when becoming an adult out of collage, fun action hero movie, referential/cultural and practical comedy; there's just a really solid amount of things to dig on, and it didn't feel like any of it was half-assed), especially if you come from a background that is close to the demographic it targets and represents; all these things made it super fun to watch. I wouldn't really change it in any significant way.
(the only thing coming to mind that might have been a little half-assed would be the 'no killing' sub-plot, but that is introduced at a moment that feels natural for him to not wanna go to that extreme and hold out hope he can turn everything back to normal, he just sticks by it until he almost doesn't and it works well. the movie is less concerned about his "moral arch" and more about his own identity, I agree they should point out the differences between him and his family or just better define his stance on the matter, but it works as it is because he's one talking about what _he_ doesn't wanna be, relating to his "purpose"/"identity" and what his own boundaries are for the person he is becoming, it's not really concerning itself with whether he believes in it or not on a wider social political level.)
It is a pretty simple super hero origin story, but using that as a negative is like saying "the Beatles are too catchy, this song of theirs is too catchy so I don't like it", it's like saying "this strawberry cake is sweet, it taste like strawberry". It wasn't such a negative review tbf, and it's an honest opinion to say "I'm too tired of classic superhero origin stories", but it's wierd to fault the movie for it when the movie is deliberately going that route for it's skeleton and adding the extra texture/flavors on other aspects of it (such as the themes of exploiting communities of lower class and gentrification. As well as writing good hispanic humor and classic hispanic family values/dynamic with a character that is in an awkward but relatable spot for a lot of young adults; Spiderman nowadays is either still in collage or has Ironman money to back him up, so again- it's actually a pretty refreshing start for a simple 'everyman' protagonist). point is- there's more to this movie then what some critics seem to convey, maybe I just had a really good siting, but I honestly think some of the unique merits of the movie are flying through the head of many, or it's simply not resonating as well as it is for other audiences. I'd give it an 8/10 at the very least, but if looking at it more "objectively" for a more "general" audience I could at most lower it to a 7.5, '6'(60%) is too low for how much this movie gets right despite being a 'standard superhero origin movie'.
one last side note I like is that they actually managed to not make him sound like a corny "now I'm gonna be a hero" youngster cliche, it's really all about his family and his 'place'/'purpose'/'identity' for his life, I just really think Charlie missed a lot on this one, but it's alright- even an amazing strawberry cake with dark chocolate or cheescake is not gonna taste all that special if you're fed up with having other strawberry deserts for over a month.

The reason why Spider-Man 2 from 2004 will always be incredible and beloved and regarded as one of the best superhero movies of all time is because while it’s a really amazing action movie with 10/10 fight scenes, it’s also got so many layers to the emotional side of it. Every single character in Spider-Man 2 is trying to find themselves, especially Peter and Otto but also Harry, MJ and Aunt May. There are constant emotional struggles throughout the whole film and they never feel out of place, they all serve purpose to the overall story being presented. The scene with Peter and May outside with the little boy, to this day, might be the best scene in comic book movie history. And then yeah, on top of that, the clock tower/train fight (especially the extended version) is one of the best fight scenes in cinema history.
TLDR; superhero movies shouldn’t be afraid to add emotion and personal storytelling the whole way through. This is what made S2 so perfect.
Im glad to hear Blue Beetle is decent. I didnt want to get my hopes up and expected them to ruin a great character. Now Im excited to watch it.

the movie is dope if ur mexican or a latino. its amazing at implementing its references and captures the dynamic of mexican families in the US. A lot of the humor lands way better if u know what is referenced or can understand spanish. Having humor even when life kinda sucks is very common for at least mexicans and other latinos.

i think deadpool started this thing where every movie had to be a comedy, you could see the transition to it in the avenger series a bit but more for the standalone movies. Deadpool did very well (to me) with that kind of writing, but the execs must not realize that IS deadpool. from the comics.
Idk, I think it started more with GOTG than it did with Deadpool. I don't think there's a single movie we can really pin the blame on, but The Avengers, GOTG, and Deadpool are probably the 3 biggest influences
I loved it, as a DC fan it was great to see Blue Beetle done well and Jaime is perfectly comparable to how he is in the comics.

I loved this movie so much, I thought it was perfectly hilarious to keep everyone entertained while also delivering plenty of heavy hearted scenes. The movie starts out goofy and then gets serious when it needs to. Not sure what Charlie is talking about with it never being serious, it isn’t meant to be super serious since Jamie is a hero who tries to have fun because of his rough background. I loved how it was true to the original story while being different and special in its own way
Took my kids to see it and they absolutely loved it. I was so ready to crap on it for being mid and predictable, but then I saw my youngest at the edge of his seat grinning ear to ear and realized... Oh yeah some movies are for children 😮
What I really enjoyed about this movie was the fact that it was really relatable to me as a Latino like with all the jokes nicknames music choices at times and even references to El Chavo’s other show El Chapulín Colorado. I think Charlie missed out on these parts because he doesn’t relate to them but glad he still enjoyed it
Completely honest, this director, who is Puertorrican, is i think his biggest movie he has ever directed. He's only directed about three, i consider that a pretty new. So far this movie is really good for a new director! If we ever get another movie from this, i hope this director is able to learn from this movie and be able to make a greater one. I liked the visuals a lot in terms of setting (me being completely biased because this movie was filmed in my home town) but they made everything blend in really well and in terms of representation, (im not Mexican) everything hit close to home, and i personally like movies where i can relate to. 9.5/10

Yes! It might not mean much to most people but especially as someone who's Mexican American it meant a lot to me and I loved it. The fact that my little brother and I saw a superhero that looked like us, had a family like ours, and spoke our language was everything.
Just in general, the movie will probably do pretty great in Latinoamérica. Me and my friends started singing along to Soda Stereo, got super excited listening to Calle 13, etc. The cultural aspect makes the movie like 30% better lol.

The director of the movie, Angel Manuel Soto originally wanted to do a Bane movie where he explores the hardships faced in Latin America, where Bane will be portrayed as an anti-hero (like what Sony is doing)
Since the movie's version of Carapax (who is completely different from the comics) has a backstory that seems to a draft of that Bane movie, I think the director just didn't want Blue Beetle to kill his OC character
The best one in a long long time
The movie was way better than it had any right to be. The action had a bunch of wrestling inspiration which I dig. The soundtrack had Cyberpunk Edgerunners vibes. Same goes for the setting actually. I like each member of the Reyas family.

The scene with his Dad hits like T'Challa in the astral plain. The funniest bit was when the Uncle was screaming in the background about his truck's damage and being salty about it later. I actually liked Carapace by the end. The movie harkens back to 2010s where the superhero stuff is standard but the drama around the superhero stuff elevates it. Like Arrow or Supergirl. 7/10, unironically the best DC Live Action movie since The Batman
This is literally Charlie’s take on every movie
Best Super Hero film I have seen in years. Great characters, a proper story, CGI polished, tears, laughter, action it had everything! Cinema I went to was half full which in this day and age is a good result! Loads more than I have seen for Marvel & DC movies over the last few years (apart from latest SM film) Popularity and Comic prices do not make a good film.....Antman 3 and Wakanda Forever were poor IMO.......Solid 9/10 for me. And I'm going to see it again........haven't done that since the 1980's
Where did your energy drink minifridge that never changed the quantity of energy drinks within go?
I feel like this should’ve been a Netflix series. They clearly couldn’t write an overarching villian and the family element would’ve done wonders in a series.
