aargh what a letdown. overthetop overdone overstyled cringefest.
it has a few entertaining momenta sure and Michelle Pfeiffer looks creepily good (bettee than Evangeline Lily more thab 20 years her jr) but its simply too much on all levels.
4/10 from me for the overplotting and lack of humor.

Lack of humor?

To the average MCU hater, that would make it a certified banger.

Yes. Other than the first and last 90 seconds and the jokes about holes and reading mind there was no humor (to my brain) or not good one anyway, and thats not a lot for a 2 hour movie. Comparing it to the likes of Thor Ragnarok or Guardians of Galaxy. Or even Ironman2. Did you see it? What did you think?

It's the first MCU movie I've decided to just skip. I didn't like Ant-Man and the Wasp and I'm burned out from phase 5. Read the wiki synopsis instead.

From the screenwriter Jeff Loveness:
“To be honest, those reviews took me by surprise,” Loveness told The Daily Beast in an interview, a week after Quantumania’s release. “I was in a pretty low spot… Those were not good reviews, and I was like, ‘What the …?’”

Well, that's a good attitude I reckon.
During a recent interview with Screen Talk (via Variety), Majors chose to weigh in on the negative reviews.
"It doesn’t change how I see myself, period. It’s all data," the Creed III star says. "I’m a performance within a story. One thing I will say to my team as we’re leaving a premiere if they’re reading reviews, I’ll say, ‘How’s the movie doing?’ I try to clean my plate and take care of my part. The response is: ‘You’re straight. You’re good. They like you.’"
"And they tell me about the movie. Sometimes the movie is also on that level, and sometimes [it’s not]."

Yeah Michelle did look younger than Evangeline in this who hasn't really been able to look as good as she did on Lost.
