    I do feel like any discussion or analysis about this film that doesn’t take into account that this is told from the perspective of a woman who systemically abuses her power is shoddy. Just a general statement about the film alluding to some odd discourse I saw online.

    Anyway more details about this film became apparent for me, but I’ll just note that the film went by at a quick pace for me. It might just be that the purpose…

    Generally liked it, was solid but maybe not quite substantial. Think the more middling reviews is more a general backlash against marvel than a particular indictment on this film (though not trying to imply some insane anti-marvel conspiracy or anything to be 100% clear). Felt like the quantum realm as a setting was a bit too similar to other settings in marvel films. Cast and story are generally good. I am still reminded of the fact that I did not…
