I was unexpectedly able to watch this film in preview last night.
Didn't really know what to expect, but what a surprise this movie is for me 
A superhero movie with a pretty strong story in it.
David Harbour provides a good dose of humor.
Florence Pugh will blow you away with her acting talent, it's amazing.
Sebastian Stan is back as Bucky, always one of Marvel's best characters for me.
The rest of the cast also play their roles really well and convincingly.
The action was very good with nicely shot scenes.
& of course, what I'm always curious about is the post-credits scene.
This movie has 2, so sit through the whole ride... It's really worth it this time 
Will definitely watch this again (now on the planned day I was going to watch it) 
Marvel is really back with this movie, we are getting ready for something really big. Bring on Fantastic Four and finally Avengers: Doomsday!!!

Very dark, but strong adult Marvel movie!! 
This is the film Marvel needed to get back on track.
With a very good cast, each of whom plays their character very convincingly!!
Very happy that this group will be featured in Doomsday.
Enjoy Marvel fans
Ps: Stay seated until the end

Thunderbolts* gets a lot of hype. But I was bored at times during the film. It just doesn't help when English-speaking actors with a fake Russian accent want to go into depth.
For me this is yet another Marvel film that can be thrown on the pile of great films after End Game. It is really not a boring sit and it is all taken care of. The average moviegoer will have a great time with the film. But what did I watch? The action was not special or daring. The humor was very poor and not very present. Which is what I expected before this film to compensate for the B-grade content. The film has no surprises and the antagonist was very promising for a while, but everything is further resolved with talk (that's what you get when a woman has the leading role *wink wink*) in the context of fighting your inner demons. Some will see darkness and depth in this. Unfortunately I couldn't do much with it myself because the characters still remain very superficial.
Then see the mid and post credits. A bit of humor and open doors with Fantastic 4. It took a long time, but it's not that bad.
It's just not fun to say anymore. It's a bit like constantly hoping that Ajax will decide the match in the first half, but you know that it won't happen. You keep hoping that Marvel will shit out another top movie. I have no reason to ever rewatch this movie. I do have higher expectations for Fantastic 4. It promises to be more spectacular and epic on all fronts.

A very strange Marvel production in which rejected superheroes Yelena Belova [Florence Pugh], John Walker [Wyatt Russell] and Ava Starr [Hannah John-Kamen] are sent to a locked room for destruction by Valentina de Fontaine [Julia Louis-Dreyfus]. No one had counted on the presence of Bob [Lewis Pullman], an apparently depressed young man with no superpowers. Of course, this turns out to be no coincidence. The large dose of humor that Eric Pearson and Joanna Calo put into the screenplay is long dead due to the poor timing of Schreier and the cast. But when 'The Sentry' finally makes its appearance, this previously far too light SF action film takes on a much darker tone and becomes a very different (and considerably better) film with original visual effects and a remarkably moving denouement. Wait until the end of the credits for a long extra scene that looks ahead to the sequel of this reboot.
