DC League of Super-Pets

DC League of Super-Pets - Review

Once your kid overcomes the Paw Patrol phase, you can stop pretending you're too grown-up to watch cartoons.

I'm always up to a good animation movie and, last week, we decided to go to the movies and watch DC League of Super-Pets. The little one was bothering us for a while to watch it. I wasn't expecting much of the film, I'm not a superhero kind of person, but I liked it. It is a fun movie!

The shelter

At the movie's beginning, most pets from the league are in a shelter. You have an interesting couple of scenes there. The kittens never stay there for long. I got curious to know, in reality, what the stats say about this.

The animals are sad, despite being well treated, and all the shelter workers seem to be fond of them. It is a subtle but important lesson to the viewer.

Lulu

One of the animals in the shelter is Lulu, a guinea pig with no fur, which seems absolutely crazy. Well, she is. Lulu is the big villain in the movie, a funny one.

Also, it took me a while to realize what kind of animal she was. Was I the only one?

Fun, light tone, superhero movie

The movie is not exactly a revolution. There's nothing new about it, but it is fun, and you can have a good time watching.

It is good for kids, but also for you - many jokes are lost for them. I read that it has a lot of swearing. There is none in the Portuguese version (the only one I watched so far). I assume it was a translating choice, so I can't evaluate that.

Is it a good movie?

After reading a couple of reviews, I concluded that people expect too much of kids' movies. They are supposed to provide fun and a good time, not necessarily teach life-changing lessons.

I don't think the movie gives you something new or absolutely unexpected, but I liked and recommend it.

Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes

This is not the sort of show which I usually talk about on this blog. However, as a psychologist, I’m usually quite curious in regards to criminals and their minds; and one of these days I started watching this documentary on Netflix . Taking into consideration the kind of thing this is, I can’t say I ‘liked’ it. I mean what you see in there is nothing to like, but I was rather terrified, which is probably the usual response. Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting.

Young Sheldon – A Heartfelt and Hilarious Journey

Young Sheldon is a delightful surprise, blending humor, heart, and a touch of nostalgia.
