Blue Beetle movie review 2023  

To be honest, the BLUE BEETLE trailers didn’t completely sell the DC comic book adaptation although I was excited to see the first DC Latino superhero on the big screen. Thankfully, BLUE BEETLE is a huge surprise with an emotional core that drives the action rather than the other way around. While you can’t avoid your standard genre clichés, it does break them such as having the family members as sidekicks rather than merely emotional props.

Blue Beetle director Angel Manuel Soto and Xolo Mariduena movie 

27 Latino Organizations sent an open letter in support of the release of BLUE BEETLE. The Warner Bros. film starring Latinos and made by Latinos could be a game changer for Latino representation in the superhero genre, but the WGA and SAG/AFTRA strike is preventing the actors and writers from promoting the superhero movie. The open letter (read below) supports the strikes but hopes the pause won't harm the advancement of representation and Latino creatives.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem Review 

Pixar elevated the animation industry with CGI which delivered polished and clean imagery, but films like Academy Award-winning film SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE, its sequel ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE, and now TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: MUTANT MAYHEM return to basics with raw and hand drawn-looking artwork. The style is fitting for the cinematic adaptation of these comic book heroes who are endearing and hilarious.
