This was so bad it womped.
I get that the producer wanted to do an ethnically diverse casting but George Lopez?? He is a bad actor.
The casting for this movie was off. The guy from Kobra Kai is to young to play a superhero, he comes off as dorky and not believable.
Taylor Zakhar Perez who's popular now would have been a better choice. Michelle Rodriguez as the sister would have been better. Everything about this movie is forgettable.
The back story is lame. The technology behind the symbiotic suits were never truly explained only mentioned. The Myan or Aztec blue beetle backstory was confusing.
Whomever did the cgi for this copied Venom body transformation scene. At one point you think he's going to turn into Venom.
This is a made for TV movie with side characters and bad producing and storytelling. The script and sequence of events was laughable.
Why? Because the whole story was focused on a random kid who gets randomly picked by the Blue Beetle. He makes a friend who happens to be a billionaire, she then has secret tech to help him out. They stumble into a secret room of her family's, who happen to have a batcave like room already set up for them.
The whole story is about a latino American who comes from poverty. Yet his uncle happens to be a super genius on inventing technologies. So if hes so smart why doesn't he have a better job? Then he some how enters this batcave and some how knows what the technologies are in the room and is able to understand them. Yet everyone else is clueless.
I would not watch this again even if you paid me or it was on television for free. Hard pass.

I'm starting to think that these superhero movies are all a bunch of bullshit, themed coming over adversity. Some random person who is down in the dumps and life isn't going their way, some how happens to beat all the odds and gets chosen by a higher power to save the universe by bad evildoers.
Basically summed up some comics that are out there.

Endgame had a lot of good plots coming together to have that big dramatic moment. A lot of these new Superheroes have nothing new to say. Thanos was one of the best antiheroes, his character was real and that gave him depth. You almost wanted him to win, and he did in a way.
Endgame was crap. But I agree that you wanted Thanos to win. That's why I consider Infinity War the end and not Endgame. I basically pretend Endgame doesn't exist. 🙂

Why cus he had his own moral compass telling him to eradicate half the population, just so they could live a more peaceful existence?
He did have his own code and he wanted to save people, but killing half of them was not the way,
He could have used the god-like power of the gauntlet to change people's minds in mass, make them want to work together for the betterment of all.
Killing half of them was also only a temp fix, it's not like people don't f*ck and repopulate. Would have ended up in the same predicament in time.

Endgame wasn't bad on its own, but it had a very different feel, different focus than Infinity War... which was a vastly superior film.
DC will never come close to that level, anyway, so pointless discussing it.

That's an interesting point. Yeah probably! He could have used his powers to being back his family
