Does this film deserve its reputation as being completely awful? No. Is it memorable in any way? Also no. It's a fine watch, but it won't stick with you in any meaningful way. Even Marvel seems to have moved past just about all the story beats and characters from this.
Considering that Zhao directed the Oscar winning Nomadland and has now directed Hamnet, which is also receiving Oscar buzz, my belief is that Disney/Marvel has no idea how to nurture talented directors/auteurs who have little interest in making cookie-cutter cape slop.
Coogler seems to be one of the few in their system who can actually direct things that aren't laughed out of the room by people who are serious about cinema.
Not a good start when you agree it's terrible just not as terrible as others say it is. Still $5 wasted in the end.
The film wasn't that bad.And people spend that just in the machines at work on snacks and soda.Or going out getting a cup of coffee.Get out of here they say on average people spend between 100-200 on disposable income and five bucks is to much the wasn't great but still better then a lot of films out here today.

We can all pretty much agree that everything after Endgame was diarreah except rares like Spider-Man...
After Endgame I think that's around where they started to push out quantity over quality like their movie roadmap with I believed doubled movies count than previous years ON TOP OF THE INTRODUCTION of low quality Temu marvel shows.
I believe the first was Wandavision which was just ok...I did like Loki but my family didn't want to watch halfway the first episode but those are the only 2 shows I watched...Wandavision cuz it was their first and Loki cuz he was one of my fav characters.
Oh...I did watch some ms. marvel but couldn't finish...1st episode was ok and felt going downhill after so I might had stopped 4 episodes maybe.
I hate how they tried to put all these tv shows characters into the mcu movies so no one knows who they are unless they watched the garbage shows.

Disney still trying to peddle this God awful movie 4 years after release, lmao...
Whats the point of you posting your over exaggeration of how bad the film was.Yes it was disappointing and did poorly at the box office.Buy nothing more needs box office grosses balances the film ecosystem by it not getting a sequel so the series is done.But to call it Awful is an exaggeration when series Megan and the fast and furious or transformers continue to get sequels and there on the same level of this film.But I'm sure you still support one of those films.

I saw all but one MCU movie in the theaters, often opening night for full price, something I almost never did. I own all the movies of the Infinity Saga, many in 4K. 23 movies in all.
Since Avengers Endgame there have been 14 MCU movies. I've only seen 10 of them, only two in the theater - Spider-Man: No Way Home and Deadpool & Wolverine - both times at matinee prices and the only ones I've bought were the two I saw in theaters. However, I used free money (gift cards, survey credits) to pay for both so I wasn't even spending money on those. They went from making hundreds of dollars from me at the theater then home video over a decade to making something like $15 for a couple of tickets in 6-1/2 years.
I'm interested in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, but have very little faith in Avengers: Doomsday as it's such an obvious member berry fest and desperate play being helmed by the Russo Brothers who burned a half-billion dollars of Netflix's money to make two utterly forgettable movies.
So, no, I won't be buying this even for $5. How you can make a movie with Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek and Gemma Chan and have none of them be hawt takes particular incompetence. Kevin Feige's soy boy M-She-U turned the geese that laid golden eggs into McNuggets.
