Marvel Cinematic Universe

For some reason I really like Jeremy Renner. I think it's because he used to be a makeup artist and has daughters and seems to love them a lot?
I've literally never seen him do good acting, though
And playing Hawkeye certainly didn't help that
Aimless:
Spider-Man—No Way Home
Just a lot of fun, and only one really cringe-y scene. First movie I've seen at the cinema since before the pandemic, unless I'm misremembering. I was unaware of some pretty significant plot points going in, and I urge anyone thinking of seeing it to do everything in your power to avoid spoilers. This is one movie where spoilers really would have greatly reduced my enjoyment :o

i dunno he really looks like he's been through some pretty arrowing stuff... and he sounds like he knows what he's talking abowt

Watched Eternals over the weekend, and was quite disappointed. For me definitely at the bottom of the MCU list of movies together with the Hulk, Thor 2 and Iron Man 3.
Especially the pacing in the first half was weird and felt very choppy, and then they spend some 5 minutes on a pretty pointless romance segment with a weird gratuitous scene as well.
There were some interesting parts and themes in there, certainly, but overall I was underwhelmed and had a hard time caring for the characters. I do admit that the sheer number of eternals that had to be introduced in 1 movie was pretty much impossible for the director, but I still think it could've done better.
Also, the first half hour especially felt more like a DC movie than MCU one. Take that as you want.
Blue Kitty:
"This feels like a DC movie," is how I felt too, especially with all the characters. I wouldn't say it was bad, but Shangchi was definitely better.
Jimor:
Just watched it myself, and yeah, introducing all those characters and a *weird* concept that the vast majority of the audience has NO prior knowledge of (I'm in this group) is a big task. I think they did a good job considering all that. I enjoyed it as well, and feel invested in the characters enough to see what happens in a 2nd movie.
The underlying premise, though, is weird and weak enough to keep tossing you out of the immersion with doubts and questions, which is probably why a lot of people react poorly to a film that is otherwise well done.
