Chloé Zhao brings a unique, artistic touch to the film, with breathtaking landscapes and a natural color palette. The action scenes are impressive and distinct from what we're used to in other Marvel films.
The film introduces a wide array of new heroes, each with their own unique powers and personalities. The dynamics between the Eternals are engaging, and the cast (including Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, and Kumail Nanjiani) delivers strong performances.
The film expands the MCU with a rich history and mythology that spans thousands of years. This adds a new dimension to the Marvel universe.
Eternals goes beyond the typical superhero formula, tackling big questions about humanity, morality, and our place in the universe. This adds a philosophical layer that encourages reflection.
While the film explores interesting themes, it doesn't always succeed in building a deep emotional connection with all the characters. Some characters could have used more development.
The film alternates between philosophical conversations and spectacular action scenes, but this balance isn't always well-executed. Some dialogue scenes feel a bit drawn out.
In conclusion i find it a visually stunning and ambitious film that attempts to explore the Marvel Cinematic Universe in a new way. While the film occasionally struggles with pacing and character development, it offers a fresh take on the superhero genre with its deeper themes and epic world-building. If you're looking for something different from the typical Marvel formula, Eternals is definitely worth a watch!

The format of lol is really funny. 10 comedians for 6 hours in a room and no laughter allowed. Watched the Canadian, German, Dutch versions and it was amusing and even funny. Than i tried the Australian one.. oh boy. As if i was watching mentally challenged kids. Poop and d*ck humor. A mental hospital would kick some of these people out. I know some funny Australian comedians, but they weren't in that show. If these people represent the quality of humor in Australia i understand why the Brits shipped them out of the country. Disfunctional, not funny and disgusting "jokes". Loud and childish. There should be a season 2 to show the world there also are funny people in Australia.
Cliche fest with a chain of Goofy plot holes and illogical story choices.
Too bad Jordan Peele turned this down to give Jaume Collet-Serra an opportunity to make a blockbuster. It failed. The jokes were played out. I didnt care about the characters. The action was boring. The cgi felt like i was watching a game. The music was lazy. The dialogues felt cheaply fabricated. The whole movie felt like a quick money grab and a disrespect to the audience. After 20 years of superhero movies the bar should be high. Black Adam as an antihero was the perfect opportunity to create something unique but instead the director decided to play it safe and in the end its a good vs bad story. The idea of a opressed people that only get saved by the west when they profit from it is a nice political message. That got me engaged long enough to finish the whole movie.
