Yet another Marvel movie with the same basic plot

Rating: 7/10 (11 March 2018)

Sure it's great to see different people on screen and there were a few attempts at addressing real world issues (usually in brief snippets of dialogue spelling it all out for you) but the hyperbole being dripped over this movie is insane. It's a ridiculous kids movie that has the exact same basic plot and action beats as almost all of the other marvel movies. This isn't the second coming here people. It's just a well made popcorn movie that you'll forget about in a few months. Can we please have one of these movies that doesn't involve the hero fighting a guy with the exact same powers as him? The only saving grace here is that there was no giant space laser. This is a well made product designed to sell you things and keep a massive money making franchise going. A lot of people worked to make it palatable and easy to digest, which it was, but it's not some kind of classic of cinema.
