Rating: 6/10 (12 October 2018)

A formulaic and entertaining superhero movie that lacks the spectacular set pieces of the other Marvel blockbusters, and focuses too much on tying it into the Avengers movies instead of letting it stand by itself. Lighter and comical in tone, it manages to lack substance whilst it rushes through the origin and future of the character. Good acting, but the characters are dull and the villain is woefully underutilised.
