Movie Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

It's solid. I'd say its a B grade. Still very good but nothing outstanding. What it keeps it from being A level is its surprisingly shallow. Shang Chi as a character might even be blander in this film than Captain Marvel was. Every other character in the film felt more interesting than him. And the movie moves at breakneck pace too yet accomplishes very little in actually making you feel any kind of connections to the characters. It's more of a paint by numbers, move to the next scene type of deal instead of establishing some gravitas and emotional weight. The fight scenes are cool though and definitely keep you entertained.
 
Finally watched this, interesting end credits. So much for Banner being settled on smart hulk.
