Somewhere in the multiverse people watched the Edgar Wright Ant-Man and I’m insanely jealous.

I always liked that they opted to not rehash the origin of Spider-Man to kick off his first film in the MCU, but the decision to make him obsessed with Stark and desperate to the Avengers feels like the antithesis of “your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man”.
Still, a lot of highs (Michael Keaton) with a fair share of lows (the writing) make this an enjoyable romp, even if it pales in comparison to other Spider-Man movies.

Vol 2 truthers— I see you, I hear you, I understand you…but it’s still my least favorite of the three. Although it does have the best Drax jokes so maybe it’s not my least favorite? Idk, they’re all good.

Instead of the one-note nacho Thor, we get a Thor with a few more layers. Taika’s sense of humor may not be your thing, but it’s not as grating as it is in Love & Thunder. And Hela kicks a lot of ass.
Solid movie, a good time.

I couldn’t tell you what it is about this movie that has people in such a stranglehold. A collection of, “I can’t believe (insert hero) met (insert hero)” scenes proceeded by a lot of silly quips. Ultimately serves as the enjoyable appetizer to the much more satisfying main course that is Endgame.
Funny enough, the most interesting part of the Infinity Saga has been less about what would happen if Thanos was triumphant and more about the consequences of his…

My biggest issue with Doctor Strange is that you land a director like Derrickson (who apparently relentlessly pursued Disney for the job) but it still feels like a drab studio project. Save one scene (the hands growing on fingers), nothing about this screams “Derrickson”, a director who has more than proven himself on the horror front. Hell, even Branagh brought some flair to Thor (2011). When it should lean into to the trippy world of parallel dimensions, it instead opts to be a…
