((NO SPOILERS I PROMISE JUST MY OPINION ON THE MOVIE))
I gave the Eternals 3 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ & that is hard for me to do because I’m such a huge fan of the Marvel/DC Universe.
I had read many of the bad reviews before I watched it today & I really really wanted the reviews to be wrong but unfortunately they all pretty much nailed it.
As I was watching the movie I found my mind wandering, Found myself bored & i kept wanting to check my phone & the time to see how much more was left of the movie & I’ve never felt like that watching a Marvel/DC movie.
I absolutely LOVE Captain America, Captain Marvel, Black Widow, Iron Man, The Hulk, The Avengers, Thor, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, Spider-Man, Black Panther,Venom & so on & so on.
I own every Marvel/DC movie on Blu-Ray in 3D. I own 3 3D TV’S & I have a 3D movie projector & a huge movie screen downstairs in my family room.
I could watch them over & over but when it comes to the Eternals I don’t know if I’ll watch it a 2nd time or if I’ll even waste my money on buying it.
The cons of the movie are the following:
**1- The plot isn’t nearly as good as all the other movies
**2- The movie is extremely slow & I felt like it didn’t really go anywhere.
**3- The CGI was way overused & the CGI used on the Deviants & the Eternals looked awful in my opinion.
**4- There’s way to many characters for us to get emotionally attached to them as where in The Avengers we know them & are already emotionally attached to them so we are rooting for them to win as where in The Eternals I felt like I wasn’t rooting for anybody to win & I wanted to but just didn’t feel it.
**5- This is a very serious movie as where all the other Marvel/DC movies have a lot of comedy in them.
The Pro’s of the movie are the following:
**1- They had an LGBT Character even though it was a brief, an Extremely brief scene at least they did represent the LGBT community in this movie.
**2-The Actors we’re all fantastic & were all cast really well.
**3- They do bring in The Avengers a brief minute which is nice how they tried to tie them in together.
To wrap this up my cons could have kept going but I truly truly truly don’t want to be “THAT” person because usually when the reviews are bad I usually end up loving the movies but like I said above all the bad reviews are pretty right on.
I was really rooting for the Eternals to be excellent like all the other Marvel/DC but again sadly enough it doesn’t hold a candle to even the worst movie in the Marvel/DC Universe that’s how much I wasn’t a fan of this movie.
Perhaps if they Greenlight a sequel (The Eternals 2) they will improve how they tell the next chapter, add comedy to it so it doesn’t feel nearly as dark as The Eternals does & improve the CGI so it doesn’t look so CGI & it looks more realistic.
So there’s my 2 cent on The Eternals & it’s just my opinion & if you do watch it I hope you enjoy it much more than I did.
Also I know Venom isn’t technically part of the Marvel/DC Universe but i also saw Venom 2: Let There Be Carnage & that was just as amazing as the original. It had the comedy & the dark side, it has everything!!!!!!
