Ok.. there are no spoilers...this is going to be long but...Eternals is a wonderful WONDERFUL film. I don't know why critics hate this movie so much. What were the critics expecting? This movie was diverse . It has two head female characters, it had a deaf character, and lgbt representation. I don't want to make any controversial point but it does look like the critics did not like Lgbt characters inside the MCU? Because this movie was nowhere near bad. This movie has the best action in the entire MCU, great character work, the best cinematography we have ever seen in the MCU, and awesome VFX and cgi and awesome musical score.
Ok so lets start with the characters, Chloe Zhao's character speciality is really proven in this movie. All the characters had depth, seperate personalities, seperate defining traits and were three dimensional. All the characters were loveable and the awesome casting choice just nails it. It's just beyond me how Chloe Zhao was able to make all the characters so diverse and likable and 3 dimensional in their first appearance and all of them were relatable. The characters had intriguing motives . This movie was really deep. Some people are calling it a shallow movie that's pretending to be deep but no. Really this isn't. This movie deals with topics like love, betrayal, hate, envy , protection, helplessness, struggle, greater good, truth, lies, insignificance, importance, greif, and death. This movie doesn't shy away from death unlike other MCU movies like Civil War, Avengers 1 Captain America 2 etc etc. You will lose good characters along the way. You'd think that this movie lost its balance but no, this movie juggles all of the points pretty well.
The visuals and cinematography was stunningly beautiful. It was just marvelous (not pun intended) . And by far the best in the MCU. I get why they made Eternals into a movie rather than a series. We wouldn't have felt the absolutely gigantic size of the Celestials. And ooh boy was it awesome ! And the grand entry Arishem made at the end !!! Ooof!!! This was just awesome!!!This movie really does expand the MCU a lot and the the twist it has is brilliantly done. You wouldn't see it coming. It just waowed me. The designs were soo cool. You would hear some people say that the cgi stood out but really it didn't. It seemed so real.
The soundtrack was awesome as well. It really have me goosebumps.
The cast was great and the action scenes were brilliant. You would hear some people say that this movie is boring or badly paced but no! OMG it's not! It does have some slower scenes but nowhere near as slow that you would feel sleepy or bored. It's packed to the brim. It does have some dark and violent moments but not so violent or dark that it will scar children. It also does have the humour and lightheartedness . But the jokes here are subtle and not forced. You really would enjoy this movie. And the diversity representation was done very well. They didn't make a big deal out of it. They just treated it like it should be. Normally. It's so beautiful and wonderful that you are missing out something big if you are not watching this movie. Yes it maybe isn't the best MCU movie but it still does fall in the top 10. It has a strong plot, good characters, emotions, beautiful visuals, and death. Everything that makes it a tight and solid blockbuster. Go watch it , and don't listen to the critics. This movie was really
AwesomeI tell you. I already watched it three times and I enjoyed it every single time. This movie is a solid watch. And watch it in theaters if you can. You really will enjoy it.
