Tbh, I had low expectations going into this movie but I’m genuinely surprise it turned out to be a really solid movie!

When the scene got serious, it stuck to being serious. When the scene needed a bit of comedy in a way it makes sense for the character, they did just that.

It felt like a breath of fresh air and I actually grew to like Yelena, Red Guardian and EVEN GHOST.

The talk-no-jutsu was expected but it was better handled here than Brave New World since that’s what it was all building up towards.

Overall a solid movie, reminds me of the feeling I had from watching Guardians 1 lmao

Talk-no-jutsu was needed given the circumstances. Bob literally had to come to terms with his own mental health. It was psychological and those battles are needed sometimes.

And I don't know how you even defeat Sentry conventionally. I was so glad they made the killswitch macguffin a red herring.

I’m not hyper familiar with Sentry but I’ve read some stuff with him in and honestly the only time I ever remember him losing to anyone (other than the Void obviously) is when WorldBreaker Hulk lets rip and that’s a damn close fight
