Review of Eternals

I don't get how a film like Ant-Man & the Wasp can get the kind of reviews it did while this gets the kind it did. That movie was so bland and boring and forgettable. I think the same for the MCU Spider-Man films as well as Thor Ragnarok. I do not understand what makes those good films at all. I feel like such little imagination went into them. While I think representation is important, it doesn't resonate with me personally being a straight white male. So all that aside, I seriously thought this was a freaking awesome movie. I saw so many reviews saying it was the least fun MCU film or way too exposition heavy... and it was confusing how it jumped back and forth through time. I found it to be a pretty simple and straightforward story to follow. The only real exposition dump was when Ashirem or whatever the main celestial name is was explaining everything to Sersi. Otherwise I never felt overloaded with information. I thought the action scenes were insane! Makari has the best speedster special effects I've seen. So much fun to watch. The story had some solid twists, maybe nothing revolutionary, but very few MCU films have that... I don't know man. That ending battle was awesome, the deviants, while they looked like creatures from Pandora in Avatar, still had their own unique feel to them. No I didn't follow absolutely everything, it'll take another viewing for me to do that probably, but overall I thought this was a fantastic entry in the MCU. How in God's name this is the lowest scored film I have no idea. I absolutely loved Shang Chi and put that in my top 5 MCU films and after my first viewing of Eternals I genuinely feel like this is pretty high up in my ranking as well. I officially could not care less what critics say about movies anymore. They also said the post credit scenes were insane, which they weren't at all. I guess if you're a REAL die hard Marvel fan you'll like them. But if you are, you've already seen the movie so yeah. If a celebrity cameo is a reason to flip out than yikes.
