El Cuartel Secreto

It was a little long and dragged out at 104 mins, but we still laughed, albeit at different parts. The story was a bit cheesy, but still watchable. I mean any comedy with Michael Peña and Owen Wilson is going to crack some laughs.

But disappointed in the end.

It was a childish movie with a very boring story and lame unfunny comedy.

Not worth watching at all.

The trailer depicted some Iron Man vibe in it but not even close. It was awful.

There are continuity gaps and characters are flat. It's CGI heavy. Everything is flashy and shiny and lots of stuff blows up. The jokes are intended for a grade-school audience. Not unexpectedly, the kids are smarter than the adults and end up saving the day.

Make some popcorn and spend an evening with your kids. There are worse things in life.

I am a little disappointed with this family movie. The trailer looked great and i love Walker and Owen, especially teaming up in a movie together. They could've actually been related they look + act so similar, sadly this is a bit of a mess.

The story revolves around Owen being a superhero who's kid finds his secret lair. Not really very secret then if a 12 year old can find it.

There are so many clichés and stereotypes it's ridiculous. There's the done to death absent Father, the cringey one-liners and most annoying of all, a stupid romantic sub-plot. Why do we need a romantic interest for a kid of 12? It just felt uncomfortable.

The special fx are Ok and Walker is charismatic as hoped, but sadly he is alone, as even Owen is rusty here. And please stop putting Michael Pena in movies. He's annoying in nearly everything.

I didn't hate this movie, but it was very cringey and poor story telling for most part.

Looking at the ratings, i see younger viewers enjoyed this more and i have to say, i'm not at all surprised, it really is aimed at kids. So maybe ask a kid if it's it's good instead. But IMO it was not up to scratch.

I wanted to love it, being a fan of Owen Wilson, but he has a limited screen presence here. The kids are not the best of actors, and one is not likable. Some scenes demoted this movie from average to mediocre, unfortunately. But there are good parts, and it is fairly enjoyable, especially if you watch it with kids. But seriously, why should there always be a love interest in kids' movies!! I mean 14-year-olds should not be wasting 50% of their time thinking finding love at that age is critical to their survival in their culture. It sickens me such cliches and it adds nothing to the story or movie as a whole. I miss the old kids "coming of age" movies; they had more substance, even the Sci-Fi ones. Nevertheless, I recommend this one for tweens for a family night out.
