christophercoles - 13 June 2024 Meh It's a bit naff; it's not good sci-fi and not good superhero. It's watchable. It's an intriguing idea. But I feel what lets this down is the characters - there is no connection, no story to them. Maybe because of the quantity or probably more the story. Personally I think this would have been better outside MCU. The links to MCU just do not work well - sadly one of the bottom imo of the 26 movies. Difficult to explain what exactly went wrong; no one single thing just lots of little things which amazingly drag this movie out. Very predictable too. The cut scenes come across a little more interesting. Maybe characters were over powered; and though there are several comments to DC - it really does feel like a bad DC knock off with characters abilities. Probably half the problem was it was MCU Earth; maybe a different realm like Shang-Chi would have been a better direction.
CrimeFighterFrog - 23 March 2024 By far the worst one in the entire MCU And here I thought it couldn't get worse than Thor: The Dark World.
This movie reminds me most of Man of Steel, and for all the wrong reasons-the color palette is muted and ugly, most of the movie is about these godlike, immortal beings fighting other godlike, immortal beings or CGI creatures.
It tries to establish so many characters at once but none of them are really unique-one is a child, one shoots lasers out of his eyes, one is a black gay man-they are all horribly generic. I watched this movie 2 weeks ago and I couldn't tell you every one of them if you held a gun to my head.
It tries to be grand and epic, almost like Dragon Ball, but it stretches itself so thin. The plot flashes back thousands and thousands of years, from the dawn of Man to the ancient Aztecs, to the point where it feels entirely detached from anything going on in the MCU, which is really the only reason you would want to watch this.
The finale is made out to be a gigantic, world-ending event but I will be shocked if anything about this movie ever comes up again.
If you want to watch a two-and-a-half hour superhero movie on an epic scale, you're better off re-watching Infinity War.
