Unpopular opinion: The Marvels is the most overrated film of the decade
Look, I wanted to love The Marvels. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
Hot Take: The Marvels's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
