DC League of Super-Pets movie review

Heroic, cuddly and furry friends are up to save the world in the family film DC League of Super-Pets that will be in theaters today. Warner Bros Pictures and DC Comics brought our fur-riends to the big screen to showcase their superpowers and show us how they treasure their master's care and reciprocate their love unconditionally.

In this film, we are taken back to the cute origins of Krypto (Dwayne Johnson) and his loyalty to Super-Man / Kal-El / Clark Kent. Living the lifestyle of the super dog in town, Clark felt that he could endanger his love to Krypto so he went to a nearby pet shop to find his dog a companion while he is with Lois. There Krypto meets pets for adoption of unlikely blend, Ace the Hound (Kevin Hart), Merton the Turtle (Natasha Lyonne), PB the Pig (Vanessa Bayer) and Chip the Squirrel (Diego Luna). An event that also involved the guinea pig Lulu (Kate McKinnon), Lex Luthor and the Justice League has turned Krypto's new found friends into unexpected team of animal heroes that will later on save the world.

I personally recommend parents to bring their kids to see DC League of Super Pets for your quality time. Aside from seeing the Justice League and these fur friends save the world from evil, the movie is a lot of fun and touch. There are quite a number of familiar banters that are excessively funny and unimaginable to be included in this movie but does the work well.

It also encourages the kids to be good owners of animals and to be responsible to their friends. It's an overall enjoyable movie that kids and parents will both love.

DC League of Super-Pets also gives us two end-credits scenes so stay tuned until the end. Also features the voices of John Krasinski, Keanu Reeves, Olivia Wilde and more. Directed by Jared Stern and Sam Levine, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures.

THE GRAY MAN movie review

Netflix's The Gray Man features two of our favorite actors, Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, throwing punches, kicks and bullets in this high-octane action flick.

Ryan Gosling_The Gray Man

Ryan Gosling plays Six, an ex-convict chosen by the CIA that eventually triggered a worldwide manhunt against him before exposing a top secret information. And to protect a young girl from the group of assassins lead by Lloyd (Chris Evans) who are also in quest for him.

The Gray Man is a film with a simple plot but you'll be served with action-packed sequences. Ryan Gosling could have made his audition as 007 (but he had an inside joke that this was already taken so he chose "Six") because of his intense stunts. From parks to train, even underwater, Gosling has proven his versatility as an actor. Evans was also an effective villain, creating a new page to his portfolio. Also Ana De Armas really goes by her name with her strong kicks and punches in this movie.

Ana De Armas_The Gray Man

Chris Evans_The Gray Man

The Russo Brothers really did well with The Gray Man that is good for both streaming and theater platforms. We're missing a lot of action movies nowadays so The Gray Man is a great movie to watch on. Grab your popcorns as it streams on Netflix July 22.
