Nothing Special

Rating: 7/10 (3 March 2018)

When I see movies that are rated 8.0 and higher I assume that they're exceptional and thus worth the watch. This movie, however, was not exceptional. Jeff Goldbloom and Chris Hemsworth had solid performances and overall I liked the banter, but it was really just an average superhero movie. The only other superhero movie I can recall being rated 8.0+ was Logan, and after watching it I had to agree that it was worth the high score - but after watching Thor: Ragnarok I'm a bit skeptical of what criteria these critics are using.
