How the hell does one of the biggest franchises that exists currently end up as this? So poorly written from beginning to end. One of Marvel's worst looking movie, the CGI is sometimes terrible and other times good but the shift between the two took me out of it a couple times. The lighting is atrocious, it's as if someone was standing above the actors with leds. Worst of all is the cringey dialogue paired with the bad acting, holy shit was that bad! I mean come on lady you can't say "trillions" and be serious about it. Apart from Jonathan Majors and Paul Rudd it was filled with awful performances worst of all was Kathryn Newton she can't say a single line without being corny.
Jonathan Majors absolutely steals the show whenever he's around and his character has presence, somewhat like Darth Vader has. The whole vibe of the movie felt Star Wars-ish and I enjoyed the sci-fi elements and the aliens they were very imaginative. Still wondering if that holes obsessed alien goo was an analogy for the movie being filled with plot holes. The inclusion of M.O.D.O.(F.)K. was a good one, I enjoyed everything with him, he was funny and everyone laughed hard in the theater when he showed up. The comedy was, for once, well balanced and the action in the third act was enjoyable. Michelle Pfeiffer and Michael Douglas' characters were very awkward to me. I feel like we barely got any development with Ant-Man and The Wasp (which she was barely in) but we got plenty for Kang which I felt like it was his movie.
I don't think this was the worst Marvel movie ever but it's definitely down there, great setup for the setup of the next setup though.
