    Everything you've seen a million times before but also something completely new.

    A movie for cinephiles that is also compeltely accessible to a general audience.

    Interesting, satisfying, cool, funny, pretty much every positive adjective.

    I really hope this performs well financially.

    Lots of discussion about "what happens", in terms of the plot.

    But the images and sound evoque such a broad range of feelings that I don't think it matters what you think is happening/not happening.

    Sadly there is nothing brave or new about this movie.

    Ending with a Kendrick Lamar song really makes you realise what a missed opportunity this was.

    This was a chance for Marvel to show something creative and fresh with traditional American symbology. Instead we get an innocuous action movie with no edge that has nothing to say and no real third act or satisfying conclusion.

    "It really is good to have friends"

    Hard to face the reality that this series has been running long enough to include florence and the machine as part of its signature retro soundtrack.

    Bradley Cooper for best supporting actor 2024.
