The next phase of Marvel is coming. Got to admit, this one has me at a loss. Not characters I enjoyed, and I have no idea what direction they're going here.
Salma Hayek joins the cast.

It was ok. So far removed from Marvel that it was jarring to hear them suddenly mention Thanos and stuff like that.
VERY interesting they were able to use a Pink Floyd song, though I think it could have been done better.

One thing they did well, in my opinion, is making sure you learned who they all were. There were like 10 of them, so that's a tall order. In the Hobbit movie I'm not even sure if all 13 dwarves even had a single line. But yeah, by the end I had a sense of who each of them was, and they even fleshed out (a bit) of a couple human characters.
And I liked how they made you feel the massive scale of a Celestial, compared to a little thing like a planet.

I'm thinking about starting a Kickstarter campaign to buy Hollywood some lighting kits. This movie was so absurdly dark for the majority of the runtime. Why is this a trend for newer films?
Anyway, Gordon's right that's it's ok. Definitely would be far down the list of best Marvel films in order. Above Dark World, but that's probably it.
There were a lot[/u] of flaws in the story, imho. So many that I never got invested in the characters. I just kept thinking about all the problems with what was being presented. I get why they did what they did, but it just doesn't work logically within the story.
They'll be showing up again so see it to stay up to date with who everyone is, but this isn't Marvel's finest hour.
