Blue Beetle… gave this a go because I saw it had some generous reviews. Turns out they were very generous. It starts out like a bad midday movie mixed with a 90s family sitcom before settling into a proper kids movie despite being rated M. The humour is lazy and repetitive, to the point they undermine the hero’s ethical stance for a cheap laugh. There’s a bit of energy during a mid-movie fight where he’s learning how to use his suit, the lead actor does well, but the finale is pretty flat and it’s pretty average overall. 5/10 if I’m being a little generous, maybe 4.
