The movie “Eternals” is a movie by Marvel Studios and directed by Chloe Zhao.  The movie follows a group of immortal aliens who have lived amongst humans for thousands of years.  They all go their separate ways but come back together to fight evil Deviants, who are a threat to humans.  As they begin to fight Deviants, they learn that they have new abilities which lead to the Eternals discovering some dark truths about their true past.  While they protect humans from the Deviants, they do not interfere with human conflicts.  They let humans deal with it.

The movie has many strengths.  The cast was incredibly diverse and reflected many different cultures and backgrounds.  There was even a deaf superhero in the movie.  The movie was also incredibly emotional and had viewers at the edge of their seat throughout it.  The movie also had a unique perspective on the idea of immortality.  Most people would love to be immortal, but the Eternals hated it.  They were tired of seeing everything and everyone they loved just died.  It was unique and very emotional to see.  There was also many different plot twists and the movie wasn’t predictable as superhero movies usually are.  The ending was absolutely shocking and hard to see coming.

There weren’t really many weak points in the movie.  In the beginning, the movie was a bit confusing, but got much easier to understand as the movie went on.  It was truly a great mix of comedy, action, drama, and romance.
