Marvel fans are sharing the love for Eternals, one of the MCU's least popular movies, on Reddit.
Directed by Chloé Zhao and released in 2021, the movie follows a group of ancient aliens who’ve been living secretly on Earth for millennia, as well as introducing a new threat: the Deviants. The cast includes Richard Madden, Gemma Chan, Barry Keoghan, Brian Tyree Henry, Angelina Jolie, and Kumail Nanjiani.
"Honestly all the serious problems with this movie can be tied to the fact that the core nature of the Eternals is so deeply rooted in mythology and lore that even an Endgame-length movie wouldn’t be enough time to tell a complete story about them," added another.
"I absolutely agree with the common criticism that this should have been a series instead of a movie. That said, I still like this movie a lot, because in spite of that issue, they managed to keep the premise shining through; this isn’t a movie about a handful of characters’ stories intertwining to take on a big villain. It’s a single story of a family, coming to odds over a layered, world-shaking decision that has no perfect, clear-cut answer."
