What happened? A disappointed fan here.

Rating: 4/10 (8 March 2019)

To start, yes I'm that type of person it seems the people who created this were strong on saying whatever they did in the media. But, I still went in with an open mind. I just couldn't get to that point and I felt like this was a great marvel movie. Even a good one. This knocked the dark elves up a few notches. You figure marvel would have learned. Even though they will probably make millions, I'll never watch this movie again. There is no draw, no excitement. The movie just didn't seemed written well or directed for most of it. Yes Brie was wooden, but maybe that was how are was directed to be? Want a movie pushing that everyone can see themselves in a character, great. But, isn't good acting-writing-directing the point that people see past what's just on the outside of a person? This movie, it felt like I was watching the third episode of a season. That there was so much more that should have been told before we got to this point. For so much it felt like this wasn't a movie, but something shot for TV. There is a difference and I don't think they knew. The end scene should have happened a lot earlier. It just all felt sloppy and rushed. It's like they never heard of Joseph Campbell and how a hero tell is made. Where is the journey a hero has to go through to get to that point they are one. That's basic. Why am I going to root for her? I don't get it. Also, weren't they not calling it shield in one of the earlier movies, but in this one they were at an earlier time? Jackson calls it shield twice in here. It just isn't on caliber with what a marvel movie could be. For every black panther I guess you have to have your dark elves.

I want to add to this too. I grade movies harsh. I want a good story, I want the background work to be shown in the quality of the film. To me, for what this movie should be, to me it just didn't feel as good as it could be. Maybe it's my own bias, I like good stories with and without looking looking like me. The main point, a good story. I felt like this wasn't as good as it could be. I've raised them a star. Somewhere along the production line this felt rushed to complete.
