Kung Fu Panda 4 (2024) 71% 7/10 EDIT “For a film about changes, Kung Fu Panda 4 is a very conservative adventure that leans on the franchise's strengths: its star, its setting, the gags and the action scenes, in those you truly feel how technology has improved. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Mar 6, 2024 Full Review Argylle (2024) 33% 7/10 EDIT “Argylle should have had more fun with itself, although there are a couple of scenes where Matthew Vaughn tries hard to blow our minds Kingsman style. (...) It is a great movie to rest from awards season intensity. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Jan 31, 2024 Full Review Mean Girls (2024) 68% 8/10 EDIT “This new movie is an homage to the original as well as a movie with its own entity, rhythm and voice. It speaks to a new generation without shutting its door to the previous one. Its secret weapon? Tina Fey's script, again. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Jan 10, 2024 Full Review Migration (2023) 73% 7/10 EDIT “Any family who looks for a fun time at the movies with the kids will find in Migration a fantastic choice. (...) At some points it has echoes of that crazy, hectic and hilarious house brand. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Dec 22, 2023 Full Review Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023) 33% 5/10 EDIT “James Wan knows how to make a blockbuster, but in this sequel all his good ideas, and there are many, and every effort to get the audience to have a good time are hindered by cuts, retouches and reshoots. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Dec 20, 2023 Full Review Wonka (2023) 82% 8/10 EDIT “Paul King gets to adapt the Paddington formula that melted kids and adults' hearts with a story filled with charm, imagination and laughs. (...) Timothée Chalamet keeps proving his star power. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Dec 4, 2023 Full Review Wish (2023) 48% 7/10 EDIT “Wish has everything you could ask for a Disney movie, because it is made to feel that way. (...) But in a time when every other studio is breaking the barriers of animation and narrative, it feels too safe. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Nov 17, 2023 Full Review The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (2023) 64% 7/10 EDIT “Exploring the Capitol and getting a closer look at how the Games are made are the more interesting parts of the movie. (…) But there is a part that takes another path that is way less captivating. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Nov 9, 2023 Full Review The Nun II (2023) 51% 6/10 EDIT “Although the movie maintains the pace, builds tension and gets to land a few scares, the spin-offs are still way behind the main films in The Conjuring franchise. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Sep 11, 2023 Full Review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (2023) 95% 8/10 EDIT “It is filled with hits. (...) A script that channels the unrestrained energy of four teenagers (...) and that wants to speak nowadays youngsters' language. (...) An animation style that reminds of Nickelodeon's golden age. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Aug 24, 2023 Full Review Haunted Mansion (2023) 38% 5/10 EDIT “Haunted Mansion presents Louisiana's particular relationship with death in a very promising start. But, like a lot of things in the movie, this context is forgotten as soon as the adventure starts. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Jul 28, 2023 Full Review Oppenheimer (2023) 93% 9/10 EDIT “Christopher Nolan's arrogance plays again in his favor to bring a film that is intelectual, epic, political, brave, terrifying but also inspiring, faithful but creative, personal, long and still hectic. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Jul 19, 2023 Full Review Elemental (2023) 73% 8/10 EDIT “It is tough to compete against the past of studio that made its mark from its very first movie, but this is not a forgettable film. Elemental compensates that it does not reinvent the wheel with a lot of heart and emotion. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Jul 10, 2023 Full Review The Flash (2023) 63% 7/10 EDIT “The best chemistry in the whole film is the one that Ezra Miller has with Ezra Miller. (...) Flash is more an homage to what the DC universe was rather than a reset button. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Jun 7, 2023 Full Review Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023) 95% 9/10 EDIT “Across the Spider-Verse takes everything that made the first one so special and multiplies it, expands it with ambition and depth. (...) It is everything we could ask for a sequel of a movie so groundbreaking, and then some. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera May 30, 2023 Full Review Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023) 82% 8/10 EDIT “Rocket is the heart of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and the Guardians of the Galaxy are the heart and soul of the MCU. James Gunn has finished the trilogy on his terms, surprising and prioritizing emotion over everything else. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Apr 28, 2023 Full Review The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) 59% 7/10 EDIT “Anyone who has played a Super Mario game will lose their mind with every reference, power-up, object or sound that is rescued in this totum revolutum. (...) This universe and its rules are easy to learn and have huge potential. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Apr 5, 2023 Full Review Tetris (2023) 81% 7/10 EDIT “Sometimes it's more interesting what surrounds the video game. (...) It is well worth being surprised with a story like this, and the video game industry is filled with them. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Mar 31, 2023 Full Review Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023) 91% 7/10 EDIT “This is the type of movie you would stay and watch till the end if you catch it on TV, even if you have seen it twenty times and know by heart. (...) It is very refreshing to see a tale for all ages among all the elevated fantasy. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Mar 21, 2023 Full Review Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) 95% 8/10 EDIT “The Last Wish improves almost every aspect of the first Puss in Boots movie, and it even manages to bring new life to this fairytale universe, with nods to its past and its usual sense of humor. DreamWorks isn't playing safe. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Dec 22, 2022 Full Review Strange World (2022) 72% 7/10 EDIT “Although it's not as great as some recent Disney classics, Strange World is a fantastic and carefree trip that sparks the spirit for adventure, encourages curiosity and entertains, with interesting lessons along the way. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Nov 21, 2022 Full Review Black Adam (2022) 39% 6/10 EDIT “Dwayne Johnson gives Teth Adam an aura of superiority and strength, he can be as attractive as he is dangerous. He is also someone that cares about injustice, by all means necessary. And he has only scratched the surface. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Oct 20, 2022 Full Review Werewolf by Night (2022) 90% 7/10 EDIT “Werewolf by Night is a curious experiment inside the MCU. It's a very promising debut for Michael Giacchino behind the cameras. (...) But it could use more time to develop a bit more its narrative side. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Oct 6, 2022 Full Review Hocus Pocus 2 (2022) 65% 7/10 EDIT “Although repeating the formula is hard, Hocus Pocus 2 checks enough boxes to charm again, even if it can't reach the first Sanderson Sisters' coming. [Full review in Spanish]” – eCartelera Sep 30, 2022 Full Review Elvis (2022) 77% 8/10 EDIT “Few filmakers can portray emotions like Baz Luhrmann. Pleasure, extasy, freedom, disappointment, danger. We feel everything at 200% watching his movies. And he is unchained once again in Elvis, to his fans' joy and his haters' misery.” – eCartelera Jun 20, 2022 Full Review
