However, since its anticipated release, the film has received significant backlash. As many critics have rated the movie, the main issue of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eternals <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is that it\u2019s too ambitious for its own good. The film is trying to be too many things at once.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c-user-card__name\">Chaim Gartenberg, in his review for\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Verge, best describes this overwhelming drawback of Marvel\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eternals:\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The film bounds across thousands of years of human history, has no less than ten main characters, four villains, a love quadrangle, and even Marvel\u2019s first on-screen erotic scene\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c-user-card__name\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The film strays away from focusing on specific characters and genres, leaving the film feeling dull.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I wouldn\u2019t call this movie boring, because I think that boring can be good sometimes. This film just feels underdeveloped and most likely leaves the viewer unsatisfied.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eternals<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> suffering from trying too many ideas, it still has some qualities that make up for it. The CGI does look good, the presentation is suitable, and some of the shots are very pleasing. The characters have astounding action sequences. This movie had the potential to dive into some very interesting themes such as exploring the morality of beings beyond our understanding. Yet, this movie simply does not know what it wants to be. Ultimately, this film loses itself in its heavy ideas and gets caught in the trap of what an MCU film has to be.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eric Nteziryayo &#8217;22 EE Staff Writer With the new release of Marvel\u2019s latest blockbuster, everyone\u2019s most important question remains: is it that bad?
