” are bound to each other by many things, starting with the interlocking rings and shafts and bolts of golden light that emanate from their very being. The light — a cosmic energy they share — is the piping that lines their uniforms, and it’s the shape-shifting weaponry they conjure to battle the Deviants .

Their spirit of free-flowing, all-for-one unity extends to the diversity of the characters, which is something the movie presents with a no-big-deal effrontery that makes them a winning prototype of a more dynamically inclusive superhero world. Four of the Eternals are white, three are Asian, two are Black, and one is Latina. One is gay, one is deaf, and one is an androgynous tween who never grows up.

“Eternals” has none of that. It’s clear that Zhao, in signing up for this project, made a decision to put her highly expressive and idiosyncratic style on the shelf, and to embrace the straight-up expository conventionality of Marvel filmmaking. That’s something of a disappointment.

In the contemporary world, each Eternal has a home, but they’re a bit like vampires: ageless impersonators of normality . Sirse, played with a three-dimensional command by, is our heroine, a London museum curator who has carried on a love affair across the centuries with the dashing Ikaris — though that ended, and now she’s involved with the merely human Dane .

IS it?

Definitely not too long; that’s just nit picking. I would love to discuss people’s complaints on this movie. I didn’t know anything of the comic minus a few things. I really don’t get peoples issues with this movie.

LOL

My only issue was the open ending, not to being too long.

Too long my ass.

Too long! it does not bother and we do not get bored! You have to put the characters in place.

OwenGleiberman Now that I've seen all the mixed, mostly bad reviews, I wish this film was available on Disney+.

OwenGleiberman PARA DE POSTAR SPOILER PORRA

bold of you to speak considering your writers leaked the end credits

Is it really a suprise Eternals is just a standard team superhero movie as John Oliver said 'All it takes is a few superficial labels and style choices to convince people that something with no real substance is actually meaningful and good. Or as it's known in America, the MCU'

Didn't some of your writers spoil parts of the movie?

Zack Snyder's Justice League mention. Cool 🔥

Justice League was mentioned on this article? You lost credibility.

why do you always have to act like aholes and give huge spoilers in your review? it's so disrespectful for the filmakers

Eternals wasn't that good that's why the spoiler was leaked.

vai caga

your writers literally like to spoil and in this article u spoiled as well, smh variety needs to be uninvited from future marvel events in order for spoilers not to be leaked

JohnnySobczak completely normal replies here, nothing unhinged to be seen

Imagine if she would’ve written the screenplay herself.

para de ser cuzao seu fdp

you spoiled the end credit scenes! shut up and sit down.
