"I WAS ON METH!"

The most special. Just the best. Everything I've needed and wanted from the MCU for 6 years. All of my coping for this franchise and defending of this movie actually paid off. This really has the best. Can confirm -- we're back, and it's as great as reception said it was. Not a single shot was bad. Not a single line was corny. Not a single thing made it feel like... well... an MCU movie.

Unbelievably funny, super badass, every line delivery is great, this is, to me, the best MCU Movie. I feel seen. I'm impacted. I laughed, cried, feared, and loved. GET READY TO READ MOTHERFUCKER BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE A KID AGAIN!

Choreography was flawless. To my nitpicky educated movie viewers: yes you can tell when it's CGI assisted, but it's tasteful, as it should be, and it's clearly necessary for the scene. It's not your usual Marvel production cheap-out. There's actually none of that here. More on that later. You'd need a NASA microscope to see the switches between the stunt doubles. The fights and movements are airtight, dare I say again, flawless. There is legitimate jaw dropping shit. John Wick level badassery at work here.
The group dynamic was charming and funny, and despite having a big dumb-sensitive type male, it doesn't (like other Marvel movies!) copy Guardians whatsoever, and everyone equally stands out. The characters for this were selected very well, no one needed outrageous boring backstory that already wasn't pre-implied by something about them or where they were. Just a group of B characters doing dirty work. This is a great standalone for anybody and an equally good payoff for those who were always fond of these disposables of characters. Cinematography was on another level. Best in the franchise. Of course Andrew was gonna cook like that. From opening to closing there isn't a single bad shot. Everything is given room to breathe, you can take it all in one step at a time. Color grading rocked. Nothing was out of place. Only covering this at all because it has unbelievable sauce for the MCU. It's the best. 

The Void might actually be the best one-off villain they've had. So beautifully introspective and thoughtful. Every line Pullman says in the "safe" room hit me in the gut. I cried twice. This did not pussy out with having a meaning and sticking to it. That line where he's like, "You get used to it, you don't die, the pain just gets worse." Jesus christ. The Voids introduction dude. Aura was off the charts. I had chills. Practical work here pays off because everything is just so smooth. This whole movie flowed so well and I had no pacing issues at all. I actually have no issues and every minute that goes by, it ages even better. Gnarly post-credits scene to top it all off. Best soundtrack out of the MCU's films as well. Son Lux you crazy sons of a bitch. 

Emotionally consistent and incredibly mature. There's some real gut-punches here and tear jerkers. I felt the most seen I ever have by an MCU movie -- I guess by any movie in general. I'm kinda like Bob if you think about it.

I feel like a kid again. :)
