Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

Blue Beetle (out Sep 14) is the latest superhero flick and while it's not breaking new ground in terms of narrative and themes, it’s worth a look for its many positive qualities (worthy quotes, a charismatic lead performance, strong production values) and what it broadly represents for the Latin American community (the first live-action superhero movie with a Latino focus). Grade: B.
