Can’t see a thread for it yet…..MCU fans where are you!!?!

Just saw it in 4DX…… very enjoyed it but feels like I was beaten up!!!

Won’t post anything spoilery until enough people are posting that have seen

BTW there are TWO post credit scenes…..stay to the end!!!! The end credits are good for a sing along whilst you wait :-)

Thanks

I thought it was good. Quite funny in parts. Not quite what I expected.

Thanks

I loved the characters and am looking forward to them being in the MCU, thought the first 45 minutes was excellent but felt it sagged a bit in the middle, loved all of the mythical creatures and liked the end and the post credit scenes were both great. Really looking forward to The Eternals too.

Thanks

We sang along to the credits too. I really enjoyed a certain person from Liverpool. Proper laugh out loud.
The fight scenes were amazing. Will probably go see it again. Was also impressed with the female characters.

Thanks

I loved it. So different to other MCU feels and felt totally original because of that.

Also without being too spoilery, the scene where Shang-Chi's mother and father meet for the first time might be one of the best things I've ever seen in an MCU film. It was so sexy and also beautifully shot.

Thanks

AramintaLee · 05/09/2021 09:17

*other MCU FILMS, not feels.

Thanks

RightOnTheEdge · 05/09/2021 16:52

I've just got back from the cinema, I loved it! It's so good!
I liked that it was different and new characters but still tied in with the other films.

Thanks

BraveBananaBadge · 05/09/2021 16:57

Loved it loved it! I have seen very few MCU films to be honest (I didn't get them at all until Taika Waititi did Thor 2) but couldn't resist Tony Leung as a Hollywood villain swoons

Thanks

Loved it. Great to have a brand new major character and story at last. Found the fight scenes quite tense and lots of funny bits. Looking forward to The Eternals now too!

Thanks

I've just been to see this and was going to start a thread to call @LemonViolet if there wasn't one already I absolutely loved this, it looked beautiful, was laugh out loud funny, quite touching in some parts. Loved the connections to the wider MCU and it retrospectively improves an earlier film

Thanks

DarceyDashwood · 11/09/2021 10:47

Loved it!!! Probably my favourite MCU film. Fresh, amazing action scenes/fight choreography. Cool interesting characters. Amazing costumes. Great script. Tony Leung. Awkwafina. Yes!

Thanks

user1471504821 · 11/09/2021 17:55

Loved it too, beautiful colour to it. Just as an aside- Ben Kingsley reminded me of Bob Mortimer for some reason! Anyone else think so?

Thanks

Mogloveseggs · 12/09/2021 00:05

Absolutely brilliant film!

Thanks

MsAmerica · 12/09/2021 01:59

I saw a trailer, and felt that was sufficient, that I no longer needed to see the movie.

Thanks

xsquared · 12/09/2021 08:56

Really enjoyed it.
Some unexpected comic moments which made it more entertaining.
Even though it was a male lead, I like that there were several strong female characters.

Thanks

silkmonkey · 13/09/2021 20:53

Hawkeye trailer is out if anyone’s interested….. it’s CHRISTMASSY

Thanks

TheGonnagle · 13/09/2021 20:55

We went to see it at the weekend. Thoroughly enjoyable, fantastic female characters, loved the bus scene!

Thanks

SocksAndTheCity · 14/09/2021 12:06

I went to see this in 3D on the 4DX screen last night. That was the right thing to do 😀😂

Thanks

ElliottSmithsfingers · 14/09/2021 12:15

Loved it too, beautifully shot and with amazingly coreographed fighting scenes! I watched it on Imax and it was so worth it!

Thanks

Endeavormorse · 14/09/2021 12:31

Saw it at the weekend and really enjoyed it. Good trailers for Venom 2 and the Eternals too.

Thanks

TottiePlantagenet · 14/09/2021 12:41

Saw this last week, loved it. I'm an old gimmer a long time Tony Leung fan, he's so lovely. He played a great villain, but relieved to see him redeem himself eventually (he's too lovely to be a baddie).

Thought the film was great, Simon Liu was pretty perfect, as was most of the cast.

I really didn't like Ben Kingsley's character in this, it felt really jarring and irrelevant. Kind of like, time to bring in some light comedy and a cuddly creature (that we can turn into merchandise and flog), let's use this tiniest pretext and bring this geezer in.

Thanks

TottiePlantagenet · 14/09/2021 12:43

Bloody autocorrect! Simu Liu ffs.

Thanks

VetOnCall · 15/09/2021 23:35

Saw this today, absolutely loved it, best film I've seen in ages. Can't wait to watch it again!

Thanks
