Selected media reviews

The Guardian: The film is not completely boring and has some novelties, but it is not particularly exciting either, mainly because it lacks the lighthearted wit of Marvel movies.

"Empire": Zhao Ting brings the audience into the world of superheroes with great ambition and dazzling cosmic scale, but even so, it cannot escape the clichés in superhero stories.

BBC: "Eternals" may not be Marvel's worst movie, but it is undoubtedly the most disappointing.

ComicBook: This is easily one of the most divisive films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Regardless of how you feel about it, there's no denying that Phase 4 is off to an exciting start.

Among the movies adapted from Marvel comics, "Eternals" is not the lowest rated on Rotten Tomatoes. The lowest is "Elektra" starring Jennifer Garner in 2005.
