Highly inappropriate movie for an age rated 12.
The horror elements, e.g. Zombie Dr Strange, demons etc. are... horrifying. What on earth were Kevin Feige and Disney thinking ? We thought we were about to enter a world of wizardry and not a Raimi scare-fest half way through...
This is a cinematic universe that's lost its way in ...truly .... a multiverse of madness.... or probably the Multiverse of Mediocrity ...
The concept of a multiverse has vast unexplored and untapped potential.... this movie is, aside from the elements above, a mess and just, well, fairly erm ... boring. It's a missed opportunity.
... MCU Phases 1 to 3 were true to the ethos and culture of Marvel ... positive messages for young minds, a degree of supportive messaging wrapped in an entertaining, tightly scripted set of movies, led with wit by talent who touched on the zeitgeist ....
.... please reconsider the direction in which you're going ....
...although the MCU may be driving ... or being driven ... towards a negative and dark, even a frankly anti family direction, the vast majority of people, I suspect prefer peace and a positive value system within the entertainment industry.
Sorry, I can't watch nor allow my children to watch any further Disney or Marvel offerings that are so "unwholesome".... and a waste of time and money. Avoid or wait for a Sky release (but still an improvement on the Eternals, which we left half way)...
