"A breath of fresh air in a stagnant superhero landscape," as Mashable's film editor Kristy Puchko called it, Blue Beetleis headed from the big screen to small screens everywhere. That's right: it officially starts streaming on Nov. 17.

The DC superhero flick, directed by Ángel Manuel Soto and starring Xolo Maridueña in the titular role, earned rave reviews from audiences and critics alike. In an oversaturated superhero market, that's not an easy task. But as our reviewer noted, "it's about time."

Get a sneak peek at Blue Beetlein the official trailer below, then read on to learn more about how to watch the newest superhero flick on streaming.

What is Blue Beetle about?

Jaime comes home after graduating college to learn his family is struggling to make ends meet due to gentrification tripling their rent. Everyone in the family is doing their part to help out, which is why Jaime leaps at the chance to work for executive Jenny Kord (of Kord Industries, the cause of the gentrification in the first place). He's given a package to keep safe, but not open, which obviously he doesn't listen to. Inside, he finds a piece of biotechnology called the Scarab and it chooses Jaime as its host.

TL;DR: Jaime becomes the Blue Beetle and must fight to save the world from the jerks who want to cause harm.

"While there is plenty of action, from hand-to-hand fighting and flying to an almost comical amount of vehicular damage, where Blue Beetle really delivers is in being unabashedly fun and funny. It's superhero entertainment without a chip on its shoulder," our reviewer states. And where it really stands out and "breaks the mold" is "by celebrating Jaime's greatest strength, his family, rather than defaulting to a story about yet another brooding solo knight."

Where is Blue Beetle streaming?

Blue Beetlehit theaters in August and after a long few months, is finally available to watch at home. In order to stream from the small screen, you'll have to sign up for Max — HBO's premium streaming service. Subscriptions start at $9.99/month and there's currently no free trial available.

A little more confusing than the Cricket deal, but still worth it: existing AT&T customers on select wireless and internet plans are eligible to score Max for free. If you haven't already signed up for your no-cost Max subscription, check your account to see if you're eligible. Max is no longer offered to new customers, so if you change or terminate your service, you'll lose access.

The following A&T wireless plans give users free access to Max with ads:

• AT&T Unlimited Elite

• AT&T Unlimited PlusSM

• AT&T Unlimited Plus EnhancedSM

• AT&T Unlimited ChoiceSM

• AT&T Unlimited Choice IISM

• AT&T Unlimited Choice EnhancedSM

• AT&T Unlimited &MoreSM Premium

If you purchased AT&T Fiber Internet 1000, 2000, or 5000 within specific date ranges, you can also score Max for no charge. However, the promotion ended on June 5, 2022. If you've moved your service or changed your plan since then, your Max benefit is no longer valid. You can learn more about eligibility over on the AT&T Max Sign-in FAQ page.
