Part 5/11:
A third take was offered by a commentator who considered the film "the best Marvel movie in a decent while," though still marking it as "still broadly in awful territory." They described the movie as a "kind of bad" but better than anticipated, with some redeeming qualities in parts. They appreciated that the movie avoided outright destroying its characters and instead depicted them as "people being stupid."
This perspective emphasized the film's competence in handling its opening scenes and character introductions, appreciating the effort to keep the team involved and to portray a sense of impending doom with some gravity. They also appreciated the film’s vibrant visual aesthetic tied to a retrofuturistic, 1960s comic style, which provided a visual departure from standard Marvel fare.
