Anyone seen this yet? Do we have honest reviews?


I have a buddy who caught an early screening. This is what he told me. He's not a comic book fan, so take it FWIW...

It was cool, typical'Marvel'. No big risks, a lot of predictability. Laughably bad CGI.

Thank you

I'm invested in Marvel at this point, waiting for Infinity War. So if this is building us towards that, then I want to see it.

Otherwise- I'm casually aware of the comic character, could take him or leave him. So it's not a movie I "have" to see on that basis. I'm pretty much filled to the brim with superhero movies, so I'd really rather have a big mindless action blockbuster come from a different genre at this point.

Part of the appeal early in the Marvel run was the presentation of superheroes in an otherwise realistic world, but there's been SO much going on that this world is completely different now. So unless they reboot things somehow (maybe Dr Strange does a time rewind to before Avengers), I'm probably done after Infinity War is complete.

Now GOTG is ok, because that's space fantasy.
