Aside from some shoddy third act CGI and the whole Taskmaster debacle that seems to be the only thing Cinemaphile ever talks about it, it's pretty great with solid character work and action scenes, and peak Milf era ScarJo.

Eternals remains the most underrated, by critics and fans alike. Yes, the gay shit was kind of cringe but it's still slept on as a movie.
Eternals had sloppy disjointed story telling with too many characters, but pretty good action that would be even better if the audience was made to care more about those characters. Worst part about it though were the payoffs. They were either disappointing (the deviant villain just dies and that's it, gone with the interesting moral dilemma that was set up the entire movie) or way too big to ignore (the big statue in the ocean that no movie references afterwards).
Simply put a lot of writing errors that ruin the movie and kills the rewatch value.

It's central to Captain America 4, and was going to affect Black Panther 2 too before Boseman passed away and the narrative shifted.
Yes I've heard about this. The insides of the statue are gonna be an adamantite like substance right? That's pretty hype, but I wish it was referenced more heavily. It was pretty clear from phase 4's connectivity that the overflooding of content within those two years hurt the collaborative storytelling efforts between writers and directors.
Deviants were boring nothings, and yes way too many characters
Watching Quantumania and Marvels has made me appreciate Eternals more
Still crazy to me that you got Angelina Jolie as a god of war and you don't market the hell out of that
>Yes, the gay shit was kind of cringe
Were people really bothered by it? It took up two minutes of screentime tops.
IMO it would have been better received if they actually made this film at the point of the MCU timeline it belonged to, instead of realizing they could have made a successful Black Widow movie after they had her killed.
>Most underrated MCU film
That's not Iron Man 3
>shit villain(s)
>shit characters
>boring plot
no it really isn't
It was good, the first act was very good and imagine if we didn't have the other widows, or the

Peter Griffin villain and instead we got the same shit, but with Taskmaster as the only villain (who is the son or daughter of the dead pre movie Peter Griffin guy and wants revenge on Natasha for almost killing him/her to kill his/her dad). Used father's tech and data, built themselves up as top assassin to get revenge. Ends with Natasha sparing them to give them a second chance, like she got.
It still was alright though.
Just like the Jannie, you do it for free.

The Incredible Hulk is the most underrated MCU film. It's legitimately good and people always call it shitry because they've been trained to hate anything other than Ruffalo's gorilla hulk
People don't consider it an MCU movie
Yeah I loved this movie well besides Taskmaster
because back then MCU used to mean "good movie" to normies and The Hulk felt like all the other garbage we were getting before and adjacent to the early MCU
What motivates one to watch this when the main character is already dead and it seems to have zero relevance to the rest of the films?
I will nominate Thor1 as most underrated. Biggest thing against it is the lack of action, and the Destroyer fight was really underwhelming.
A lot of the characters were at their best in Thor1, though I like Thor in Infinity War, and Jane in L&T quite a bit.
