January 22, 2020
Andres is back with this weeks Movie Review. The subject of his critique Dolittle. Starring Robert Downey Jr. “Giving that its Robert Downey Jr’s first proyect after leaving his character Tony Stark, my expectations were high. Sadly the film is written and acted for 5 year olds only. Because its a movie for children does not excuse any film to half ass its effort on character development, good writing and an important message. All films, regardless of target or subject matter should strive to be amazing. The best example being Pixar or The Paddington franchise.”
