The story for this movie is really cool, and there's an intense blend of fantasy world with real world. I liked this story the most in comparison with backstories of remaining MCU characters (except Iron Man and Captain America). The storyline felt more sensible and ungodly even though its a massive package of supernatural powers.

Cinematography was very similar to other movies though. I could correlate scenes with scenes from other movies i have watched. CGI i think was substandard. In my opinion Avengers set a really high benchmark to meet. In Shang-Chi, the mystical creatures looked like cartoons. Action sequences included people jumping around breaking laws of physics. It feel specially weird to watch that because we know MCU does a terrific job with Spider-Man.

I really liked how this movie was not emphasizing unnecessarily on the demographics, which i think is very important. I guess for introduction to the MCU, this work is spot on.

Arrival has a very small story which is also very tricky in the details. Stories like these are very difficult to work with. Villenueve presented in a even more complicated way. CGI, actors, acting, background score, everything is good and meet his work's standards I suppose. But this movie was all about his perspective. The movie jumps between different levels constantly and towards the end all the jumps are perfectly justified. If someone watched the movie really with all their attention, they will be mesmerized in the end with all the revelations and connections. For me this movie was a really complicated work of art which i solved, so it felt good. Highly recommend it!
