Blue Beetle review

First off, I should preface that I watched this on Netflix. Did DC just dump it there or is there some rights thing?

Unto the movie itself: it was fine. The story definitely leans more on the sci-fi angle of Blue Beetle, where the comics have gone back and forth on aliens and magic. The effects are decent for a superhero flick, definitely on the flashy end.

The story was fine if predictable. The villain has little presence and a weird set of priorities. The highlight of the movies is the Reyes family, and even then they had to inject a “we’re losing our shop/house” plot for little timmy reasons.

Overall, decent if flawed.
