It just proves that sucessful superhero movie directors were lifted by the franchise


People just love the Avengers, the characters, the lores, the stories. The directors just happened to be... there.

This movie is terribly made. Sometimes I feel like I was watching a low-budget TV movie. Dialogs were nonsense, like "be advised, he's not alone" when we can clearly see for ourselves that he's not alone. What is this? A movie for kids that are glued to their phones while watching movies?

The overhyped fight scenes were hidden by fireworks, smoke.bomb, wind and debris, etc. Looks like the directors were not confident enough to actually show them.

Obvious CGI were obvious. That CGI plane was embarrasing in 2022. There was no tension at all in the skydiving scene, and then it just abruptly stopped, directly into a scene of people... talking on phones. Like, wtf?

I've avoided critical reviews of movies and decided to watch for myself make my own decision, and sometimes I truly enjoy and even love movies that others were hyper critical.
