The Gray Man

The Gray Man is a Fully Action pack movie. Action, JameBond style with touches of comedy. It is about an agency that hires prisioners to take care of special secret missions. But when a secret video revealing compromising evidence of illegal activities from one of their directors is found, the whole plot kicks off. They hire Six (Ryan Gosling) to recover the evidence but he discovers the truth about the agency and decides to keep the Flashdrive with the video. The agency hires Lloyd (Chris Evans) a crazy mercenary that uses unorthodox methods to complete his missions. Loyd goes after Six old mentor Fitz to recover the flash drive. But when his attempt fails, he kidnaps Fitz's granddaughter Claire (Julia Butters) to pressure him. Meanwhile a CIA agent named Dani Miranda (Ana De Armas) is caught in between. She is accused of helping Six in stealing the Flashdrive. Which later does ends up helping Six. Lloyd sends everything the agency has to find and kill Six in order to recover the Flashdrive. Six ends up escaping until their final showdown on a Maze. Another Agent named Suzanne Brewer (Jessica Henwick) ends up being the one to kill Lloyd. She even intends to keep Fitz's granddaughter to have control over Six and use him for her special missions. But Six manages to escape the hospital and goes after Claire to save her. At the Six and Claire where reunited and left together. 

The actions scenes on this movie where amazing. From the explosions, chases, and Fighting choreography, they were all very well done. The cast was also amazing with the actors Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Ana De Armas, and even the little Julia Butters were the ones who stole the show. They were the main characters and each did wonderfully on their characters. Maybe the only big critic for this movie might be the predictability. Most of the time you already knew what was going to happen several scenes before. Also, the sweet connection between Six & Claire was very well done. How they manage to connect despite the few moments they spent knowing each other felt real. Besides Julia Butters was a nice revelation, despite being a young actress she did so good that she made a huge impact on the movie. But what probably made the biggest impact on this movie were Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans characters. They seem relaxed and like they really enjoyed working on this movie. Six and Lloyd's individuals scenes were amazing but what was also great and fun was when they interact with each other. Ryan Gosling made a great character by showing a though, caring special agent. After everything je did on his job and all the deaths je still showed a character that cared and wanted to to the right thing. Six accepted who he was and was thankful to the people that help him. No matter how bad the situation got he still tried to help the people he cared about. While Chris Evans made a complete opposite character in comparison. Lloyd was a crazy, uncontrolled mercenary. He was willing to do anything he could to complete his mission. Lloyd tortured, killed and went after his targets love ones to get through them. The way Chris Evans portrayed this character was just perfect. Feom the look to the attitude he gave it. Plus the touches of comedy from characters was just enough to add to the movie entertainment. 

Overall I really enjoyed the movie. It was a great entertaining movie filled with just what it needed. I will rate it 8.0. I didn't go higher just because it was very predictable and because they probably needed a plot twist or something to add to the tension. But it is a great movie that I greatly recommend. Great plot, cast, special effects and also amazing locations.

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (July 19, 2022) [Summary & Review with *SPOILERS*]

Dragon Ball Super Super Hero (July 19, 2022)

[Summary & Review with *SPOILERS*]

**SPOILERS**SPOILERS**SPOILERS **SPOILERS**SPOILERS**SPOILERS **SPOILERS**SPOILERS**SPOILERS 

"Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero" is the latest Dragon Ball movie released in June 11, 2022 in Japan. The movie took a different approach than the usual Dragon Ball movies. We got to see more of secondary characters. We saw the return of the Red Ribbon Army and how they survived after all this time, Piccolo training Pan, new transformations, Cell, androids, older Goten & Trunks, Broly etc. We saw Dr. Gero grandsons, Dr. Hedro. He wanted to create Heroes but didn't had the funds to fulfill his dream. He was manipulated into helping the Red Ribbon Army destroy the Z Warriors. A genius with the capacity to create powerful Androids. He created 2 strong androids called Gamma #1 & Gamma #2 believed to be as strong as Goku & Vegeta. Also, manage to created a new Cell called Cell Max with the Data of the Red Ribbon Army. But Cell Max was released before he was ready and they weren't able to control him. Piccolo has been training Pan seriously and teaching her new skills. He was later confronted by the Android Gamma #2 but Piccolo was defeated. Piccolo decided to follo Gamma #2 to his hideout and learned everything about their plans by infiltrating the new Red Ribbon Army's base. He tried to contact Goku & Vegeta with the help of Bulma but Whis never noticed the message. Since he felt Gohan wouldn't be much help he used the Dragon Balls to Unlock his potential and Shenron even gave him a new transformation because of the respect he had for him. We also learned that Bulma had been using the Dragon Balls constantly to stay young. Piccolo later learned of the plan the Red Ribbon Army had of kidnapping Gohan's daughter, Pan, in order to get his attention. Piccolo and Pan used that to help Gohan Awakened his will to fight. Which he did and manage to fight Gamma #1. Piccolo too managed to fight Gamma #2 thanks to his new powers. 

Meanwhile, Goku Vegeta and Broly kept training on Beerus planet. Vegeta trying to concentrate on the meditation part of his trying, Goku on his physical and Broly trying to control his full power. Broly was told to watch Goku and Vegeta fight to learn how they fought while controlling their strength.

After the Androids and Dr. Hedro realize they were actually helping the bad guys and not acting as real heroes they decided to stop fighting the Z Warriors and helped them instead to stop the Red Ribbon Army. But even then Cell Max was set loose. Cell Max was a giant Cell than was in the second transformation of the original Cell. He was very powerful so everyone join the fight to stop him. Even Goten & Trunks who decided to fused but end up doing the Fusión wrong. Cell Max weakness was on the too of his head but needed a real powerful hit. Gamma#2 decided to used his full power to stop him and sacrifice atvthe end. But Cell Max was still alived. Piccolo used his full power and even new transformation. He combined his new transformation which he called "Orange Piccolo" with his ability to grow huge. He tried to stop Cell Max on his own while Gohan prepared his attack. Since it was taking too long the rest of the Z Warriors join the fight again to help Piccolo. When Gohan noticed Piccolo was about to die, Gohan released his full power and achieved a new Transformation. Believed to be called "Beyond Ultimate". His powerful increased drastically and managed to finished Cell Max with a "Makankosappo" (Piccolo's Classic Attack) on which he managed to control and move it. At the end Dr. Hedro wanted to turn himself to the police. But they decided to forgive him and was given a chance to work for Bulma. The post credit scene showed the conclusion of Goku and Vegeta fight. The movie ended with Vegeta barely but finally defeating Goku.

This was a great movie.

With Great things but also bad stuff. One of the great things about this movie is that it focused on characters that rarely see and that they were starting to forget. While Goku & Vegeta are amazing and is always great when they are the protagonist. There is also times when we wished other Z warriors took the spotlight. This movie did that and Goku and Vegeta were not the protagonist. In fact, we don't see much of Goku or Vegeta. Even do the movie starts like most, that we see other characters and we think at the end of the fight Goku or Vegeta will save the day, well it didn't happened here. The focus of this movie is Piccolo, Gohan and maybe Pan. But mostly Piccolo and Gohan. Picks up on that constant situation when Piccolo keeps training and Gohan has concentrated on his work and studies. Another great thing is how we are connecting more and more to the GT universe. We finally got to see an older Pan, Goten, and Trunks. The past movie, Pan was still a baby so it was great to see her with more important scenes. We saw Piccolo training Pan which is also great. On GT Pan didn't really have someone to guide her and help her train properly. So it will be interesting to see how strong Pan could get. The movie started with great flashbacks from the original Dragon Ball to remember about the Red Ribbon Army. So we got to see the Red Ribbon Army and how they had survived all this time. Now, personally I always wanted the return of Cell, Broly staying as a new a ZWarrior like Goku or Vegeta, a transformation for Nameks, older Trunks & Goten, Gohan reaching SSBlue, among other stuff. We finally got that. We saw Broly training with Goku and Vegeta on Beerus planet. That is an interesting sneak peak of what we could expect. Also, the different style of Vegeta's training to achieve new powers. (Yeah, we know where this is going of you saw the new manga) But all that was kind of a tease. Them we saw for a while Trunks and Goten helping in the fight. We really need to see more of Goten and Trunks. They should be wsy stronger than Gohan. If Gohan could be stronger than Goku for being half human, then Goten & Trunks should achieve greater powers since they haven't stopped training since kids. We finally got Cell back. Well, something at least. Hopefully it is just a tease of what could happened in the future. Cell could return in many ways, and now that they officially shown him he could return as his Perfect Form again. There was a brief explanation that if they killed Cell Max his cells will scattered and explode anything around him. Those cells could go anywhere, we will see. Finally, Piccolo transformation. Thanks to Shenron Piccolo could Awakened his powers plus achieve a new transformation. Great, except it wasn't what I expected. What was that? Same for Gohan, he achieved a new transformation? But at what cost? Gohan and Piccolo transformation looked like something taken out of the fans. Piccolo just turned Berseken but he calls it "Orange Piccolo"? The design is bad, just bad. The face, color, and buff doesn't seem like a final transformation. Hopefully, he can transforms into something better and stronger. And Gohan? He reached Ultra Instinct? No wait Super Saiyan Ultra Instinct? Apparently it is called "Beyond Ultimate" Why? Who knows. Silver hair, in SuperSaiyan2 teen style, and orange eyes. But again, Gohan gets stronger just because, no logical reason.. Is it because he is half human half saiyan? Then why aren't Goten & Trunks even stronger, if they haven't stopped training? Plus almost for certain Pan will get really strong yet she is another Generation and less Saiyan. So Please, at least show Gohan go through some sort of intense training before giving him new powers. One of the lessons of DragonBall is that is you fight and prepared for something you can achieve it. But Gohan, does nothing and Surpasses or reaches Goku's or Vegeta's level like nothing, with no effort whatsoever. Show a brief scene of Gohan training at Beerus planet, Hyperbolic Time Chamber or a special room designed by Bulma. Then I thought Cell would Absorb Gamma #1 & #2 to reach Perfect Cell and then Goku, Vegeta or even Broly defeat him. Or let Piccolo and Gohan Blue beat him. But ok, it was nice to see Piccolo and Gohan in a serious fight.

 Now another thing, they said Gamma #1 & #2 had Goku & Vegeta level. That explains why Piccolo couldn't beat Gamma #2 the first time. But later with his new transformation he managed to defeat him. Then Gohan said that neither Goku or Vegeta would have been able to defeat Cell Max on their own. That was ridiculous. Goku & Vegeta kept training and know even with Broly. They should be way stronger now. So, what did Gohan transformation was about. Was it a new transformation? Did he reach a new level Stronger than UltraInstinct? Or did he created a new transformation just for him? Hopefully it is explained later. But it is currently being called "Beyond Ultimate". Hopefully they don't said it is stronger than Goku and Vegeta. Because it didn't looked like Ultra Instinct, it had orange eyes, his hair looked like Super Saiyan 2 as a Teen and didn't even dodge Cell Max attack. Instead he resisted the punch. It would be absurd that Goku Surpassed God levels and achieved Ultra Instinct but Gohan got stronger without any effort. "Beyond Ultimate" transformation should be along Super Saiyan God or Super Saiyan Blue. Kind of Trunks Berseken Blue. While Piccolo's transformation "Orange Piccolo" should be a bit less in power than Gohan's new transformation. 

Overall, the movie was great. Still feel there was more intensity and emotions on the final episodes of the Tournament of Power and on the Broly movie. Just feel a few things should have been done differently. Still, it was great so I would give it an 8.0 of Rating. A Great movie and definitely recommended to watch.

RATING: 8.0

#ScorpioReviews Ambulance

Ambulance

My first impression of the movie was wow, what a great movie. The tension and action in this movie was just perfect. Jake Gyllenhaal was amazing, showing the quality of actor he is. Like always he can just become a good guy, bad guy, crazy, heroic, sad anything really. He can play any role and you truly believe it. Another great performance was done by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. Even do I don't know much of his career he did amazing. Even do they were the bad guys you could connect to them and feel their suffering. Finally, Eiza Gonzalez who was simply explendid. I know her since she started in Mexico and it's wondeful to see how much she has achieved. Slowly leaving her mark on the film industry. She has already been part of several big projects but this role felt it made more of an impact. The level of emotions the 3 protagonist manage to portrayed was simply magnificent. They took us through many emotions from the worry, anger, crazyness, tension, drama, and sadness. The movie emotions slowly but steady kept increasing until the end. This is a Michael Bay movie. He is mostly known for these fast moving scenes, action, explosions, and car chases. Sometimes in other movies  it feels Michael Bay exaggerates on these scenes, that they are too repetitive or hard to watch and keep up. But i feel he did great on this movies. The action, police chase, explosions etc was used at the right time. I like to watch great movies like this. They aren't back up by great franchises, sequels, prequels etc. They are just 1 standalone movie that keeps you entertained from start to finish. But yes maybe experts can identify mistakes throughout the movie. Especially during the medical and police scenes. Certain medical procedures or police tactics might be wrong or exaggerated. But for the general public is ok. The movie manages to capture your attention at all times, so much that you just wantn to focus on what is going to happen next or how they will handle the current situation. There were moments of the movie were we could identify and worry about each character. At times the police officers or the paramedics and other times even the 2 criminals in the ambulance. 

Overall this a well made movie full of action and drama. The movie definitely took us through different emotions we deeply felt. We felt worry for many characters especially the 3 protagonists. Definitely recommended to watch and even buy this movie. It's those kind of situational movies that you can watch again later. My rating will stay in a solid 8.0. It's a great movie to watch and we need more movies like this.

#ScorpioReviews Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City

Resident Evil 2

Playstation

Xbox

Resident Evil 3

Playstation

Xbox 

This movie was surrounded by bad reveiews. Few peopel like it. Honestly just by hearing the plot and seeing the trailers I was already disappointed and didn't expected much. But in order to give a proper review I had to watched it. Like any movie I will give it a chance and my honest opinion.

First of all the Movie starts weird and later gets weirder. Just from beginning the Resident Evil timeline and characters are a mess up. Chris and Claire Redfield together under Dr. Birkin supervision since childhood? Ok. Probably another take ofnthe story. Like any Film they try to do an adaptation ofnthe original project. But next comes another major change. Raccoon City was evacuated before the incident? Then it was evacuated again after the..... guess another incident. The story starts with that weird flashback. Then moves on to the present time with Claire hitching a ride with a Truck driver. The same Truck driver from Resident Evil 2 but now with Claire. Oh and he starts to touch Claire on the leg before running over a Zombie. Typical Hollywood movie? Then the whole steping out of the truck, Letting your dog eat human remains and drink the blood! Oh well. They really needed to force that scene. Leon oh well, Leon was destroyed on this movie. Leon meeting Jill at a dinner before even starting his job at the Police Station. This is definitely "up to a great start." This is what I was worried about. They didn't just make a few changes or adaptations they just use the Resident Evil name to make their own comedy movie. Leon getting bullied by the police and Star Team. Claire getting a ride by the truck that later crash in the city. Oh and the Truck crashing/turning right in front of the Police Station but Leon not noticing because he was into his music. Ok. Leon was supposed to be a rookie officer not a civilian that was offered the job. He is supposed to have some training and not be a scary little crybaby. Also, Wesker wasn't supposed to be a stupid highschool boy style Wesker. Jill definitely wasn't a clown, out of control, crazy Jill. Here Jill wasn't a strong fearless Stars Member but a show off and annoying Stars Member in love with Wesker. People said this movie was game accurate and that's what saved this movie. Well no. Definitely Not. It does has some mentions and showed some references to the game but it was still a disaster. Also, the CGI was very cheap and pathetic. They had the CGI of the old Crocodile, Giant Spiders, Zombie Beavers or even Sanake movies. The CGI and prosthetic make up were also a disaster. They look bad, real bad. The Zombie designs was a cheap and bad copy from EvilDead. Then Wesker having the cheat codes of the game. Why? He did had a "secret agenda" but as a metaphor. He was involved with Umbrella and had secret communication. But he also was the one who give orders and definitely wasn't this dumb. I heard the trailers didn't do justice to the movie or actors. But there was so much overacting and silly scenes that were pretty bad. We notice it on the trailers and just confirmed it on the movie. There was so much overacting on this movie. They made so many dramatic, serious, crying or worry expressions for silly reasons. Their "serious, dramatic" closeups were very mess up. I'm not sure if something can be saved from this movie. Tried to include important Game references but they were very forced and ultimately unnecessary. Again Jill, hating Chris and wanting to be with Wesker but when she founds Wesker betrayed them she suddenly changed her mind and worried about Chris. Now Chris is very important for her. So much for good character development. Because as soon she sees Wesker again she rushed to him after shooting him. Wesker, Jill, Leon were a complete mess. Chris was ok. Claire could have been ok but she really really way overacted. Don't know the actress but it was just soo much. Her expression looked very exaggerated at all times. Simple news or surprising events for her and she always looked the same as if someone was being burned alive in front of her. Same with Jill actress. Probably was the director's fault? I saw her on Ant-Man and she was great. But here Hannah was bad. Her character even worse. Here Jill really loved Wesker, hated him for betraying them, looked for Chris for support, then found Wesker and was very worried when She shot him.  But after leaving him, she went back with Chris as if nothing happened. Then Dr. Birkin (Leon's enemy on the game) Was given to Chris. Chris the top Soldier, Leader couldn't beat him. Ok maybe he was traumatized because on here Dr. Birkin was like a father figure to him. But Claire comes and saves him because Chris couldn't do anything. Claire, the young sister and not as experienced as Chris. But at the end Chris decides to give the final shot, guess he wasn't as traumatized or was just not as good like in the games. It goes on until the train scene. Dr. Birkin comes back fully mutated. Actually, that was probably the best CGI fo all the movie. It still wasn't that good but way better than all the other scenes. Probably saved their budget for that final scene. Then Leon using a Rocket Laucher. Great, except he uses it when Chris and Claire were just besides the monster. Of course, nothing happens to them. Mixing ResidentEvil 1 and ResidentEvil 2 in one movie was the worst choice. They took Sherry Birkin with them, all of them Chris, Leon, Jill, Claire. Ohh and the final scene, post credits. Wesker, scared and accepting what Ada told him. Also, Ada looked older than Leon but oh well. They were probably thinking of getting together Leon with Jill and Chris with Ada. Who knows anymore.

I said I would watch this movie because already had an idea of how it would turn out. But actually it was way worse than I expected. I still have to be honest about it. I don't recommend anyone watching this movie. Not new Resident Evil fans that are just getting into the story and definitely not classic fans from the whole franchise. Not even people that don't know anything about ResidentEvil. Not even as a standalone movie was this worth it. It has been a long time since I seen such a bad movie. Don't know what they were thinking. I feel bad for Robbie Amell. He is a good actor but always ends up in minor roles or bad projects. Also, Donal Logue, Neal McDonough amd Hannah John-Kamen. All I can think of is the movie was so bad it made them look bad too. This definitely has to be canceled and probably finally give up on giving live-action a chance. Much like DragonBall and Mario gave up. Hey, just so you have an idea this was worse than DragonBallEvolution and probably the same or worse than the SuperMarioBros movie. 

I kind of get what they tried to do. They tried to make a new EvilDead style with the ResidentEvil franchise. Well don't do it. Just stop there and erase this movie from existence. Even the last ResidentEvil franchise movies were better than this and was way less game accurate. But they were at least good action movies. Definitely now more convinced that the Series will also fail. Also, has the same feeling and looks bad from the tease and leaks we seen. They should either work with someone that really likes the ResidentEvil franchise and someone that makes great quality projects. Or else just forget about ResidentEvil completely. The Japan CGI movies are great, maybe just support that.

Overall Game Accuracy was lame, very forced. Actors performance was pretty bad. CGI and Prosthetic Makeup was very poor. Script, plot, directing, character development were a disaster. Now the rating. Wow. Honestly, can't even think of a proper rating. I feeling like a 1.0 but honestly not even sure of any movie has been given a 1.0. Well, IMDB gave it a 5.2. But for me that feels to high. I'm sure the crew did what they could with what they had. This must have had a very low budget or else I can't understand it. So based on that and the very few good moments it had, I will give it a solid 3.0.

Rating: 3.0

#ScorpioReviews Sonic the Hedgehog 2

Sonic The Hedgehog 2

*Contains Spoilers*

The movie starts where Sonic 1 ended, on the Mushroom Planet. What or where is it, I think it was never explained. Then during the Ring Portal scene some Space Soldiers appeared along Knuckles but again nothing was explained. Where they another Race or were they Humans? They probably missed that explanation or maybe didn't thought it was important. As the movie progress they reach the pursuit scene. Sonic trying to be a Hero by stopping a crime. That was ok, I don't know if they were inspired by the CW Flash show or if it happened on a Sonic Animated Serie. But Dismantling the movimg truck really felt like they were inspired by that similar scene on the Flash show.

Sonic is a movie where is definitely not Game accurate. Probably not even from the Animated show. That tends to be a problem for most Movies that are Game or Anime adaptations. Yet here they manage create a great project. They got the basics of the Sonic Universe and place it all together very good but in a different way. I believe they managed to capture the essence of Sonic so the changes to the Sonic origin didn't influence the audience reception. They did great. Also, it was funny how they could go from mentioning Batman to the Winter Soldier. 

 Now, somehow this sequel doesn't have the impact of the first movie. It was still great but some parts of the movies seem too force into us. The introduction to Knuckles, Tails and the chaos emeralds were perfect. Growing up I remembered really liking the Knuckles and Shadow characters over Sonic,Tails and the rest of the game characters. Sonic, in games and cartoons usually felt too narcissistic, too show off and Tails too foolish, just very goofy. But they managed to restrict or improved their personalities without removing their essence. Here they are still growing up and learning to become better. That is a nice touch that make you like and accept all Sonic characters more. Besides they created a new origin story for each character but yet it seems at the end they will end up similar to the games. 

Also, the human interaction might have lasted too much. It's a Sonic movie and in the first movie they manage to balance it in a good way. But here the Hawaii scene along some in the Town felt like too much. They could have continued without much of the only Human scenes. I think I know what happened. On the first Sonic movie the connection between Sonic and Tom was good. They had great chemistry and they both helped each other throughout the plot. They made both as important and useful to each other in a balanced way. So in the Sonic 2 they tried to give that spotlight to the other human characters but it didn't work. They force them too much, they tried to hard to make them important but ultimately weren't really needed. Maybe reducing those scenes would had actually make them more important. But like this it ended up being boring or annoying scenes rather than important or funny as they intended.

There were many game accurate moments from the games or that take your mind back to the Sonic Universe. The temple scene felt more like Sonic. Like a dungeon, a level from the game. Maybe they just needed some ramps and rails throughout the movie to add up to that feeling. Also, the fight in town when the three were running side by side and teaming up was great. Now, the Super Saiyan mode always felt like a Dragon Ball rip off. It has always been obvious. But oh well Super Sonic is part of the Sonic Universe so I'm glad they added it. The design and CGI used looked pretty good. Also, project Shadow was something expected and really needed it.

 It is weird because now it seems there are many possibilities to continue making many Sonic movies. They could go anywhere from adding Amy, Shadow, Rogue, Vector etc there are many Sonic characters. Along with the Chaos creatures if done right they could end up with their own spin off movies, much like the Minions. But ultimately is almost certain there is only 1 movie left. A Trilogy seems to be there original plan. So, I can't really imagine how they could fit so much in 1 movie. A Sonic-Verse could be the way to go. Probably keep making Sonic movies that are all connected to avoid missing important content from the Sonic Universe.

Overall, I really enjoyed it. It was a great movie. Still, like I said before it felt the First Sonic movie made more of an impact than this one. So, my rating will be a 7.0. I wanted to give it a 7.5 because of what they tease might happened in the future and the additionof Knuckles & Tails. But those boring human scenes really lowered the quality of the movie. It was a Good, enjoyable movie but probably needed a bit more Sonic moments.

Rating: 7.0

#ScorpioReviews Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers

Chip'n'Dale (Original Cartoon Movies)

This was a nice surprise. I remember growing watching Chip'n'Dale. This movie really takes you down memory lane. Even do as a kid I watched it in Spanish, this still brought back many memories. Even do this was a cartoon I watched because it was on TV, I liked it. It wasn't that I waited and look for the show but somehow I was always at the right time to watched it. Always liked this Duo and even do always seemed to releate to Dale I like Chip a lot too. Chip'n'Dale is just the perfect balance.

 The movie took all kind of directions. From 90s references, Disney characters, and many different characters from all over the place. This movie had many guest appearances in camera and some just with voice. I feel they didn't struggle much on the plot and characters because they enjoy it. It feels as if Creators had their idea and stick with it until the end, trusting it would work, and it did. The growing up and maturity of the characters was great and help with the comedy. Even serious moments could quickly change to comedy. They took the comedy and nostalgia scenes very seriously and didn't overuse it. They take you through sad emotions, laughs, and exciting moments. I think the first half of the movie was great. It showed us how times have changed, where things left off and how they could continue. But the second half was even better. The second half of the movie had more of the classic Chip'n'Dale vibe and it was such a joy to watch. Honestly since the moment they announced this movie my main concern was how where they going to do it without messing up the Chip'n'Dale image. Recently they announced a new Kids cartoon called Chip'n'Dale Park Life, which I think was definitely unnecessary. There they use the new Art style of current modern cartoons which is not so good. Characters designs look weird. But ok, it will be for small kids. So, I knew this was it, this movie was their only real chance to reconnect with fans and gather a new fanbase at the same time. I feel they achieve it. They did what was necessary to make this project successful and with hopes of future projects. The theme song tease during the movie was great and the adaptation at the end sounded pretty good.

Now I don't want to fall on the nostalgia moment and give it a higher Rating. Overall and Trying to stay as honest as posible I will give it a solid 7.0. It was a solid movie that took us through many emotions. We had fun throughout the plot and everything got wrap up in the right way. It had just enough of everything they need it and didn't tried to get too crazy on its content. It is definitely a recomended movie. It's a great family movie for all time fans and new fans that want to give it a try.

Rating: 7.0

#ScorpioReviews The Valet

The Valet

This movie was full of surprises. Starting with Eugenio Derbez which is one of the best comedians in Mexico. Glad he is having plenty of successful projects in the USA and I'm sure this will be another one. Then it was amazing seeing Carmen Salinas again after her recent passing. R.I.P. Another great Mexican actor and comedian is Armando Hernandez so it was amazing to find him here too. He has appear in many successful Mexican movies and Tv Shows. Also, it's curious but I just finished Re-Watching Breaking Bad so it was an amazing surprise to find Betsy Brandt on this movie, such a wonderful actress. Samara Weaving. Wow, from tough, sexy, funny to pure emotions, she was just fantastic. She did and amazing job with her character. It felt so real and manage capture that evolution of her character.

 The great thing about this movie is the range of emotions it show us and how they manage to show the differences between Latin and USA cultures. Which still in 2022 is seen like something weird or strange for some people. This movie manage to capture the emotions in the right way. The sad moments, funny, emotional, hopeful and stressful situations. Also, how well each character was made made you hate some and love others. They had a proper plot and great amount of comedy. The plot follow a proper path to stay connected with the characters. They even showed the real essence of both cultures from the awkwardness, loneliness, comedy to seriousness, struggles and sadness. Also, the difference between Rich and poor people in the United States, specially when they are from different cultures. This movie uses the natural Latin comedy, not the typical force comedy most movies use. The movie felt very real from the Valet workers, the business men, paparazzi, celebrities and the common people in the city. I really enjoyed the movie a lot more than I expected. I know it's an adaptation from another movie but I think they manage to make it unique and different than the original. Still I feel it might still attract more Latin audinece than USA audience. Hopefully they manage to advertise it properly so many different people can see it. So maybe just for that instead of a 7.5, I will stay at a 7.0 Rating to be more honest. Overall it is a very inspiring, funny and emotional movie. Greatly recommended.

Rating: 7.0
