David McK (3770 KP) rated What If? in TV

What If?
What If?
2021 | Action, Animation, Comedy
Marvel's latest Disney Plus series, this is a departure from the previous (WandaVision, Falcon and Winter Soldier, Loki) in that this is - in reality - an animated anthology series that re-visits earlier Marvel movies and posits the question 'Waht if ...?'

 For example, What If ... Peggy Carter took the super soldier serum instead of Steve Rogers.
What if ... T'Challa became StarLord instead of Peter Quill
What if ... Ultron won

And so forth and so on.

Basically, the multiverse.

Due to its nature, some of the stories are better than others: for me by far the worse was the Zombie themed one, whilst a strong contender for the best would probably be the Waht if .. Thor was an only child? entry.

Your tastes may vary, of course!

The IMAX version of the film looks and sounds great, Hans Zimmer’s score for the movie is fantastic and sounds superb in the IMAX cinema, but sadly the movie is let down by several things, one being Jessica Chastain’s character, I just found her so one dimensional and didn’t enjoy her screentime, which is a shame as Chastain is a superb actress with the right roles. I would have loved to have seen that Jean and Logan’s chemistry brought in to play, we saw that with the original movies, but with Hugh Jackman being a lot older now, I suppose it may not have looked right, but then again we have seen some amazing CGI in making cast look younger in the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
