"To me, there is a holy trinity of hardcore bands, and the first among these is, obviously, Black Flag. They pretty much invented the genre, and as much as it's become boringly de rigeur to be "into" Flag and have a tattoo and a t-shirt (guilty on both counts), and as much as Greg Ginn seems intent on fucking their legacy to death, this record is still pretty untouchable, not just as a groundbreaking musical statement, but also because of the raw fucking attitude in every cut."

When it was announced that they were going to take the last in the Cap trilogy and make it the civil war storyline, I was ticked. The comic book Civil War was painful to read. Why does Tony Stark have to be in every movie? At least Cap kicked his ass fully at the end. Stark needs to go see a psychiatrist, because he obviously can't get over his parents death. Tony Stark being in the movie made it a 9.
I loved that they brought in Black Panther, Chadwick Boseman did a fantastic job. The fight choreography was great during the car chase scene.

Newest - at the time of reviewing - entry in the MCU, with Florence Pugh taking the lead (and with David Harbour mostly providing the comic relief), suffering from depression after the loss of her sister (Black Widow) and listlessly going about her assignments, until she finds herself ensnared in a death trap and forced to team-up with a similar group of misfits (and Bob) to escape.

I have to say, I found this one of the more enjoyable MCU movies in their recent post-Endgame run; found myself emphasising quite a bit with some of the characters (Bob) and appreciated the message behind it all.
