As ever, I'll wait to give my view of it after I've seen it, cause you can't tell if the pudding tastes good until you've tried it.😉

Thing is, if the pudding smells rancid, tasting it to make sure, let alone swallowing it, is not a smart move...

It'll be easier to swallow on D+....

It might not be a great movie or even a good one(*) but I think the biggest problem for the Marvel movies is brand fatigue AND the switching out of the cast at the exact same time.  

 

(*) - I'm not the person who can judge these things, I only saw a bit of the movie where all the good guys were fighting each other and I couldn't even make it through that movie, on the other hand the D+ show with the current Captain America I thought was pretty good.

I don’t think it was a brand fatigue as much as a lower level of quality in the franchise. The writers don’t really know what to do anymore. If they stopped with the low quality movies, people would be more excited.
