The score was plagiarized in concept and fell flat in application

Rating: 8/10 (10 March 2019)

Despite the actors using this movie as a political platform for their personal politics, it was better than expected. My one strange criticism would be the music which, conceptually, plagiarized the synthesizer sounds from Ragnarok and vintage era music (but jumping 2 decades) of Guardians. In application, it fell flat, lacking the beautiful marriage between sound and momentum as was done with perfection in Thor: Ragnarok. This point is highlighted when No Doubt's "Just a Girl" failed to enhance an otherwise epic moment. It might as well have been played off a portable CD-player by someone in our audience. Good songs, missed opportunity.
There are two end clips, FYI.
