Black Widow is a fitting finale for star Scarlett Johansson that simultaneously sets up captivating new characters to carry on her legacy.
The mostly self-contained story packs a surprising amount of heart and finally gives this long-running MCU character a proper send off.
A lukewarm farewell to a character who never got to take center stage when she deserved to, and this film feels too-little, too late as a result.
After fans have been waiting so long for Black Widow to get a solo film, it feels like a bit of a letdown for her to get overshadowed by a new character in her own film.
This was a very effective action thriller that provided some closure to this character in an endearing way. Also Florence Pugh killed this!
“Black Widow” never feels more than just a footnote in the story, a detour that holds no weight in the larger M.C.U. narrative, except to set up Yelena for a larger role in the future.
I was very engaged in the story of the early years of the black widow ! The movie kept my interest all the way through ! Mixture of great story line, occasional laughs and plenty of action !
