    I don’t know where any of the positive reviews are coming from. It was awful. Not even for a MCU movie, it was a bad movie, period. Everything is so disjointed and all over the place. There’s no explanation for things that need explanations and they over-explain things that are obvious. The villain, while having some motivation, was just weak and forgettable.

    Brie Larson was in and out. Sometimes she was decent, but a lot of times felt like she was reading off cue cards. Teyonah Parris was OK, but she’s terrible at fight choreography. She kept running up and getting in position constantly and just looked off. Sam Jackson was a clown. I mean I don’t think he had a single line that wasn’t a joke. I don’t even get his characterization at all. Iman Vellani was the best thing about this film. She was a delight every time she was on screen and I love how she’s the new ‘Fury’ in recruiting the YA team. Glad to see references to the other members finally.

    The whole singing planet was just…IDK. The flerkin stuff was OK but I felt wore out its welcome, especially the end there. But the mid credits scene was interesting. Beast looked kinda weird, but he seems to be a completely CGI character and not Kelsey Grammar, despite using his voice. So I wonder if the X-Men are only in that universe. It would give an explanation why we haven’t seen any mutants up until recently.

    I’m still in as a long time Marvel fan, but wow, this movie was a mess.

      Well, Flanderization comes for everything.

      Marvel thinks the quips are what people are there for, not the explosions, punching, and hot people in skintight leather outfits.
