Why does every one of these movies need to end with a 30 minute CGI-fest? This would have been much better (and in my upper tier of Marvel films) if it concluded with a 1 on 1, grounded fight between Shang-Chi and his father.

The ending is the low point no doubt. They tried to do to much it seemed. But I thought this movie was a lot of fun.

I had a few genuine belly laughs thru out.

I was delighted by the final CGI battle. A giant dragon? Come on!

The dragons were cool, but everything just so over the top.

It was entertaining. While not fantastic, the MCU has had plenty worse. Fit well into the canon.
