Icon Expectation or thought about Marvil's 'Eternals'?

Post by Mishkah Simons DeVos »

Do you think it can top the prequels? What is your opinion if you've watched it?

I loved it! The plot was fine and the characters were great, but what I enjoyed the most was the relationships (romantic + platonic) between them all (especially Thena and Gilgamesh)

Honestly the movie met my expectations and more. Some may say that there was little to no character development but I think that what was shown was enough for the viewers to enough the movie.

Mhm, watched it the other day.
It was alright, better than I thought it would be after all the lashing it received.
They did, as they usually do, set the ending up well for the sequel. I would actually be interested in watching it when the time comes.

I loved it so much! I really didn't know what movie I was going to watch until I went to the theater and we picked out that one. I don't know what I was expecting but it surpassed all my expectations. I was so impressed with the storyline and all the characters and I was shocked when I learnt that not everyone enjoyed the movie like I did.

I don't think his movie can top it's prequels because the eternal were made to look weak and vulnerable towards the end

I didn't like it much. The story kind of gave different directions to the original story. It seems quite unrelated. Plus I don't think there was consistentacy.

Tbh, one of the worst Marvel movies I've seen.
Boring storyline
The Eternals were too powerful to be that weak

In all honesty? It sucked. There was no character development, I still have no idea what role Kit Harington was supposed to have. It all just felt rushed and pointless.

As the first movie of them, I thought it was a very good movie and I am looking forward to seeing the next.

I had high expectations for the Eternals movie but I must say that I was disappointed by the end product.

Truly, I haven't watched The Eternals yet, only the trailers. I am a bit scared to not be disappointed so I postpone watching it.
