Just watched it, and first time I the theater for a while. Here’s some thoughts:

1. I forgot to re-watch civil war. I guess I needed to in order to remember what / who was bad and good at that time.
2. If the Red Whatever his name was was so bad, (as in powerful) why was he in prison?
3. I didn’t realize that Black Widow didn’t really have any actual super powers until then. I had always wondered what her superpowers were. Now I know - none.
4. Decent movie. Not as good as Loki or Falcon and Winter Soldier or even Wandavision. But good movie.
5. The damn previews. Man I forgot how much I hated previews until today. Still do (SIDENOTE: Way too many Njnja movies coming out. Not really a Ninja / Kung foo type fan so not really excited that there are 2 of those). But yeah. Hate previews.

Since the OP didn't chance the Header I feel Obliged to used the word SPOLIERS in this post.


I paid Disney Plus and watched it last night. While I love going to a theater, I didn't want to keep paying for multiple viewings so I was fine paying the one time fee to watch as often as I wish.

It was better than I expected but the FX was ridiculous. When Falcon and Steve Rogers fought taking down the 3 hele-carriers it was done right. It was almost believable. The In-Air fight scenes In Black Widow became stupid. It was like Charlies Angels Full Throttle when the girls were in air trying to get to the helicopter falling off the cliff to get away...but much worse.

If they would have followed the Captain America Winter Soldier model of more on the ground arse-kicking fights (they had some but not enough) it would have been better.

The post scene was interesting. Weird place to put an Avengers Grave since she helped saved the planet. Not Surprised that Hawkeye is being used as the segue to next version in this branch of the MCU. My guess is the Hawkeye show will deal with this.

Little Sister could be getting set up to be the next Black Widow if Scarlett isn't brought back somehow.

You'd never know since multiple times she (an un-enhanced female) fights super soldier infused men or aliens with beyond-human capabilities hand-to-hand to a standstill. The MCU's characters' strengths fluctuate like a coke addict's EKG readout.
