I'm going to look at this movie in 20 years and think: hey this movie was different from the other marvel line up.I hope there will be more movies with this formula. As I will state it has a deeper and darker plot and that's what marvel needs to do since they don't have other major movie makers in this genre. Back when they did if you wanted a dark super hero movie,you watched a DC movie. If you wanted a family friendly super hero movie youd see an MCU movie. If you wanted a little of the in between you would watch X-Men. But now that there gone people are expecting all the listed aspects in marvel as people have different tastes and THIS, this is the way to go. It has a complex plot with the right amount of action. This balance has been only found in four movies in marvel: civil war,black panther, infinity war and endgame. But they need to keep going so in short great movie,hope they make more like it.

This was good but could have been done better as a Disney+ series. It felt too much like a filler episode of your favorite show. I like the backstop aspects of it all, but this should have come out before Black Panther to really have the impact that they were looking for. Overall true feeling to the MCU. Can't wait for the Eternals release.

Not Marvel's best outing in my opinion but it kept my attention and made me laugh. I do look forward to seeing Florence Pugh in future MCU films. I really liked her character. 3/5
