About

If you want darker sci-fi fantasy with big battles and a focused superhero adventure, you may enjoy this; Not for you if you dislike Marvel-style humor swings, or if you’re seeking a tighter, more consistently engaging story than Captain America: The Winter Soldier or Avengers: Infinity War.

Pros: Gorgeous fantasy world; Strong action setpieces; Intriguing conflicts | Cons: Divisive pacing; Mixed villain impact; Uneven humor
