I just saw this movie opening night, having heard for days prior about how poorly-reviewed it was and how out-of-place the director was for this film. These reviews lowered my expectations, inevitably.
This movie felt different from other Marvel films, but I think it had to for the introduction of such a new cast of characters and sprawling concept.
I enjoyed the film. I thought each actor played their role well, I thought it was beautifully shot, and I thought the story was told about as well as it could have been with how many prior films there have been. Itโs not my favorite Marvel film, but itโs definitely not bad. And Kumail is hilarious! Itโs a fun time. Go see it
