Atom User Reviews for Blue Beetle
We finally have a Mexican superhero!!! 5 stars. Great movie, geared towards the Latino community, but anyone will enjoy it. Great sound track. Jorge Lopez was annoying at the beginning of the movie, but he had me laughing my azz off hallway through. P.S. Granny is a bad azz!!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
this movie is littered with stereotypical Mexican jokes. im Asian, but i don't know how Mexican person can watch this and not be offended. it's clearly trying to connect with the Latin American audience but it comes across as comical and bad. that being said, the action scenes were mediocre and I don't know it was hard for me to watch with the constant Mexican jokes and bad acting
one of the most boring marvel movies out, couldnt even keep my attention
Definitely worth the watch I only saw it because Xolo was in the movie but everything was so interesting in the movie regardless and once they make a second movie im definitely watching it for sure
honestly, I love this movie and how it represents the Hispanic and Latino community and the moments with the dad and the son and the villain's flashback made me and my little nephew cry honestly I loved this movie. 💙
Liked the main character but his family was obnoxious making any scene with them unbearable.
Love to see some Mexican-American representation!
Full of clichés, very bad scénario that you can see coming miles away
The writing script could have been better for it to be the 1st Latino based super hero.
Cool
Can’t wait for more new DC movies 🔥
Entertaining movie, not the most out there plot or story telling but an interesting and entertaining story over all
Awesome action!
Cried and laughed and never wanted to be a DC superhero more badly than now, not since Batman
Nice DC!
THIS is what we mean when we ask for representation. So many themes tactfully packed in this amazing movie
I have never wrote a review before, but this movie deserves it. It exceeded my expectations. I really enjoyed this movie. Lots of action along with comedy. I would watch it again
the first 30 plus minutes was boring. In my opinion, the jokes weren't as funny as people made them out to be, but it definitely picks up about 45 minutes into the movie. solid movie, though, best DC movie, not named batman or Superman
Seems like more of a political statement than a superhero movie with an all Hispanic cast
Trash
Went to see this for $4. But it’s a full price movie for me! I would’ve paid 10 for a night out! Cast is perfect, humor is on point, action is great and well directed. Whoever’s been rating this badly is completely biased. This movie is heartwarming and funny to boot, don’t miss out on this. 10/10
It was nice to see another movie that didn’t feel like a “rinse and repeat” story.
such a great movie, loved every second of it! xolo was such a great pick for blue beetle, cannot wait to watch it again when it comes to streaming services. 9/10
beautiful cinematography, story was lackluster as well as the characters, but the humor was on point. overall I enjoyed the movie.
I get trying to represent.. but every joke being some sort of mexican inside joke killed it for me. The story was cliche and predictable.
I loved it. Family had doubts bc of some ppl’s reviews. By the end they kept saying how good it was, and that they ALL rated it a 10/10!! The whole theater stayed cracking up at the jokes AND actually clapped at the end. Had me laughing, gave some action goosebumps, and had me choking up. I don’t get the feels often, but I had a lump in my throat at some parts for the family messages. Regardless of if you feel it was “stereotypical latino”.. If you get it, you get it. Representation matters. It’s not all of us, but It was so nice to see familiar home decor, our ppl’s humor, our language, our deep familial love shown on the screen. I could see how it needed more with the origin backstory. The Kord villain wasn’t fearsome. I personally wanted more to the main character intro so you got more hooked on him. Gave a Venom/Spider-man/Iron Man, Spy Kids tech mash. This movie felt like it was for US🤞🏼or that I could get powers too lol My family is definitely waiting for a sequel!!
Cute moments. Overall acting is forced. Susan Sarandon phoned in her performance and it had the depth of a preschool coloring book.
all the new movies are poorly written. or remakes of the exact same movie. or they agendas written into the movie. can Hollywood just start making fun, take your mind off from the stresses of politics and agendas. give us a break from the world issues.

Good show but too much self victimization. Get awake, not woke.

Comedic timing: 10/10 Action: 10/10 Storyline: 10/10 Really good movie. As a stand alone movie, one of DCs best. Felt fresh and new and exciting. Everyone in the theater was laughing the whole time. Some applause at the end. George Lopez *chefs kiss*. Would def recommend
Definitely made with Familia in mind… yup. Every Familia Latina has its own Uncle Rudy and Cabezon! Loved it, loved it, loved it! Not only action packed, but hilarious. Buen hecho!
Not as exciting as we had hoped
Great movie!! Such a heartwarming family movie with great action. A great time at the movies with the family! A must watch!!!
This DC movie was funny, family oriented, had just enough action .
Tooo cheesy
Honestly not that bad of a movie besides the VERY GENERIC PLOT and the plot holes. I love this character and I think movie could have been a 10/10 if there was better writing. The movie looks really good and there is some cool action sequences, but it isn’t a must watch. I would say tho that George Lopez carried this movie and it was pretty funny
Great Hispanic representation. Funny, action packed and heart felt great movie all around
Loved it
The story, acting,special effects were very mediocre . Save your money .
Great DC Superhero Film With Xolo Maridueña From Cobra Kai And His Acting Was Amazing And I Didn't Like The Villain And I Loved The Dad And Granny In This Movie I Give This Movie A 5/5
Happy I came to see it
YOU MUST SEE IT!
BLUE BEETLE odelay
Xolo 😎
It was a very funny action packed movie I think overall definitely the best dc movie since Batman
It was amazing movie and I will watch it in the future.
better than I hoped it would be. I really loved it
Would definitely watch this movie again
Metacritic
Representation is the crutch this latest limp and derivative comic-book movie leans on – a reason for critics and audiences who want to champion diversity to simply overlook how dull and hideous-looking this latest franchise (of many) is.
Interspersed with the overabundant slam-bang action sequences which up the silliness factor with their increasing improbability are heartfelt paeans to the bracing solidarity of Jaime’s family. Their sincerity is the picture’s best element.
It all makes for an appealing blend of flavors and influences, and despite its minor flaws, “Blue Beetle” combines family, history and culture with an upbeat tone to introduce a character who offers an exciting new direction for DC.
