Just very average

Rating: 5/10 (25 August 2018)

The whole thing feels bitty - the dreadful, amateurish 'previously on...'- style opening; the clunky, set-piece story progression; the sense that secondary characters and storylines are rushed and abandoned without proper exploration (the boyfriend, Sterns, etc.); the lack of buildup for Blonsky as a character to give him real menace as Abomination. It's not really a bad film, it's just a bit dull - the moves are predictable, the characters aren't engaging, and it doesn't leave any kind of impression beyond 'I guess that was ok.' The performances are generally decent, although nothing revelatory, but the film just feels as though it is going through the motions. Not one to remember.
