The Movie Cynic・2 minutes read
Phase four of Marvel was a mixed bag, with "Spider-Man: No Way Home" standing out for its strong character development and fan-favorite elements. On the other hand, films like "Black Widow" and "Thor: Love and Thunder" faced criticism for their convoluted plots, underdeveloped characters, and lackluster storytelling, with "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" also receiving negative feedback due to rushed writing and character inconsistencies.
Insights
