The story...was what it was. MCU standard mumbo jumbo and macguffin stuff. I did like how the conflict resolved, even if it was pretty cliche.
Middle of the road MCU movie. I don't expect amazing stuff when I watch comic book movies. That's why movies like The Dark Knight, Logan, Days of Future Past, Infinity War, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Zack Snyder's Justice League really stood out for me. They each hit the tone just right, in my opinion.
The script was the thing that made me dislike the movie the most. Characters were making some of the dumbest choices and the motivation they used for Wanda was fucking weak. The cameos were literally exposition fodder
though I will admit they at least died in pretty cool ways and were probably the only reason this movie made over billions of dollars at the BO. I also felt America Chavez was severely wasted as a character. You literally have a character that can create portals to different multiverses and you utilize it in the most basic way possible. In fact, I wouldn't even call her a character, just a talking mcguffin. The only reason I'm not knocking the movie down anymore because it at least TRIED something new. I really enjoyed the horror stuff, even though a lot of the times it made no sense to have a "jump scare", but it did at least try something new.
