The first marvel movie post-Endgame has Natasha Romanov and her sister working together to bring down the program that brainwashed her, her sister and others into becoming the martial arts super spies that all russian women in marvel movies seem to be.
The piece is set sometime after Captain America: Civil War.
While the acting isnt bad, the pacing is all over the place and every keeps reminding us that the avengers are somewhere, which makes you wish they would appear and improve the flick. The movie slows down in the second act and exposition is vomited out by characters like they are allergic to it. Jumping from location to location is jarring as you have to question how characters manage to travel without any hitches. Hell, they flew a helicopter from Budapest to some place in Russia with seemingly no problems.
The movie is rated PG-13 so basically no one bleeds. And I'm sorry but when did The Black Widow take some super soldier serum? Coz she seems impervious to falls, kicks, explosions, car and helicopter crushes, coming away with nothing but some slight bruising. One can only suspend disbelief so far.
The movie feels lacking in anything marvel-ous (great pun). Watch it with some vodka and hopefully you blackout from the latter than the former.
Catch it at the cinemas, or stream it on android boxes or torrent it since HD copies are out.


out 5 burns.
