So….Black Widow….. B? It had some moments I really enjoyed but some just…wha? Spoils -- (edited)

Pugh and Scarlett were aces.

The climax was … meh. So, they have a floating fortress falling apart, and they parachute to safety? Nothing rips either chute? Mkay…

And Scarlett and Taskmaster are parachuting for like two seconds before they hit the ground. There is a fine line between crazy superhero stuff and no fucking way. This lacked the spatial awareness the Russo Brothers are so good at in action scenes.

And then she’s waiting to get captured by Ross and 100 men…and not a single blip of time till she’s free again? Like, you showed us so so so much in the prior 2 and a half hours…how about 3 minutes on how she escapes?

Overall, I didn’t mind the idea that because I know her ultimate fate, it was cheapened, but I didn’t like some of the choices in the action.

Plot aside, Jo seems like she's just on Pugh's ride in this. And Weisz was straight out of an Ancestry.com ad. (spoiler) -- (edited) - Max Nov 6, 13:52 1
- Yep—used to introduce+advance Pugh’s character, who seems to be a big part of the upcoming phases (spoiler speculation) - flavorize Nov 6, 14:02
I gave it high marks as it was one of the first I saw in a theater. But my actual letter grade would have been a C. My lowest Marvel. -- nm* - Spawn Nov 6, 13:31 1
