Many years ago, when I was job hunting, I saw the third Indiana Jones to take my mind of a ton of worries and for 2 hours had a great time. Same with this film - enjoy it, it's fun and not heavy at all. So some thoughts.....
Not "great" like Ragnarok or mindless fun like Deadpool - this is nothing than a noted popcorn-entertainment film with blood ties to the MCU as it should be.
There are a ton of small homage bits to other films if you know what to look for. The original TRON and INDEPENDENCE DAY among them. Know your stuff. I spotted a few more along the way. Star Trek - Nemesis if you think about it.
Brie Larson is very good as is Jackson and so is the infamous Cat who steals the movie.
There is one huge plot contradiction that stands out like sore thumb. True MCU fans will get it.
Intro tribute to Stan Lee is very very effective and well done indeed. Final two bits are excellent - the second one hilarious to anyone who has had a cat.
So, grab some popcorn and sit back to enjoy a well told story. Not perfect (even Citizen Kane has flaws) but a fine, fun trip around a few galaxies and Earth as well.
