I love J.lo in Selena, and she has her whole Career based on and owed to the Tragic Death of the Real Selena (Who was a super talented Star, who struggled since she was a little girl to Make it BIG!!) RIP Selena. :(

I think I liked about 3 or 4 other movies she made, like The Cell,(Which if we are honest D'Onofrio was really the BIG draw on, but I liked her outfits) Enough, (which was interesting but went beyond suspension of disbelief towards the last half) and the one with Robert Redford. But Mostly she's Not a great actress and if she Deserved an Oscar, it should have been for Selena, sadly not anything else she has made since.

I think she is Beautiful, and can sing and dance (considering she's in her 50's she is still Kicking It like she's 30) So to the people who knocked her dancing, I'm sure most of you from 30 to 50 can't even tie your own shoes without getting winded. So there's that!!

I think the thing that most impressed me about this documentary was the fact that they tried to change her show the day before. Those old white dudes that own the NFL, knew her plans with the cages and a rightful political statement, important to latinos, people of color and refugees trying to come to the US for a better life. They specifically hired her (and Shakira) to repair their damaged RACIST REPUTATIOn!! So REALLy dudes, what did you expect???? But yeah, could have done without the stripper pole, but I loved her daughter being in it with her singing Bruce Springfield's Anthem (Born in the USA!!) So I did like that j.lo didn't back down and let them try to change her show and message of kids in cages, being ripped away from their parents, damaged for life and some even lost and permanently separated, by a Very Different, dark and cold hearted America we've seen, that's gotten much worse since 2016!!! Too Much Hate in the USA today, Sadly!!

But, then there was her incessant whining about an Oscar, and for a Movie about Strippers, that was just a 5 at best in my book. Girl, that just made you LOOK REALLY BAD!!! And was just plain CRINGE WORTHY!!!

In all Honesty, I don't think any Latina or any performer of Color should have taken the 2019 SuperBowl invite for the Half time show!! Let them fix their own Reputation!!! Someone needs to build a Football team of people of color and non-racist white players. And then lets see who starts winning the SuperBowls???? LOL ;D

Sadly, only parts of this doc were worth watching, the rest just shined an entitled cringy light on her. Hopefully she learns something from this experience. For the Better Please!! :(

Despite Having 2 well know actors, I actually Really like, Dern and Lang! This was just SO MUCH SLOW and Stupid Garbage!!! I think these 2 seasoned actors either did someone a favor appearing in this, or were bored and just wanted something to do, Obviously Anything to do!!! Waste of their talents!!

I gave it 2 points for the beautiful architecture of the Mid-century homes I am familiar with from my youth.

But, Such a BAD and Boring SCRIPT!!! Could have been a decent movie with a Better script and much better actors, because I didn't recognize anyone and they were so emotionless and making constant stupid horror cliché choices! For a Doctor and Architect, I found the 2 leads (couple) to be Really lame! But I'll take that Thunderbird, Please!! ;D

The houses and 50's style clothing and beautiful cars is NOT a good enough reason to WASTE almost 2 hours of your life on this Tripe!! You've been warned!

Loved all the Retro 70's and found this a fun and scary watch!! I was the same age as these kids in 78 and remember dissecting a poor frog in 7th grade science. Everything about this movie transported me back to my youth! Loved the pinball machines, music, and the fact that the worst you had to worry about happening to you at school was an encounter with a bully!!! (Not like todays REAL life and totally Unacceptable Horror for kids in school!)

The characters were mostly likable, sympathetic and relatable. With of course the exception of Ethan Hawkes well done Monster and a few bully's and a Dad.

This was suspenseful and Not a Gore-fest! And the Not knowing and Not seeing EVERy AWFUL thing made it surprisingly better.

They really captured the vibe of what it was like to be a young teen in the 70's. And the Nightmare of a Boogie Man on the loose! I say Watch IT!!
