Or maybe it's just a thoroughly rotten movie with no meaningful plot, zero interesting or relatable characters, a lifeless and bland visual style, and completely lacking any sense of drama or urgency? An ugly, beige, soulless piece of corporate product that can only be described as "The Inhumans but a slightly higher budget and no dog?"
I can't remember the last comic book movie that looks so utterly uninspired and limp. The background goons in 1990's "Dick Tracy" all had more character and charisma than any of these dead-eyed losers in their rubber onesies. There's a reason "The Eternals" failed within a few issues every time it was published. Kirby's "New Gods" was actually a big flop when they came out, and this was his rip-off of his own flop. At least over the years "New Gods" became a cult classic (confession time...I've never been able to get through it...the writing suuuucks) but this is a copy of a copy of a copy.
I have no doubt this will be a box office success cause of people like this:
I know I hate everything, pretty much. But this one is especially insulting cause Disney thinks they can literally fling **** at a wall like a monkey and it's gonna be gold.
But everyone knows this is Z-list trash. The MCU is over. If you keep going and paying for these movies, it's only cause you're still chasing the dragon from over ten years ago. It's OK to say it out loud. The first step is admitting you have a problem.
