I'm clearly in the minority. It's really not the great shakes people are making it out to be. Not a patch on Guardians of the Galaxy (which it was compared to here in comments), not even close, at all. In fact its barely comparable to most of the Marvel films. It feels small in scope (absolutely no pun intended, not worth the effort) and more like an addendum to the MCU if anything. The off hand mention of the Avengers and the shoe horning of Falcon in a few scenes are the only real thing that made it part of the MCU. It could have stood completely alone with practically no effort and still been an ok film. Which is exactly how it started out so many years ago. That doesn't come from a longing of what could have been of Edgar Wrights film, I had no real interest in that either. If it wasn't for the post credits scene I'd have completely forgotten it was going to be furthered in the MCU and without the forced line (probably an additional shoot) "I know a guy" there was no reason for it to be the thing to promoted Captain America Civil War. It just followed suit of what had come before it.

It has some chuckles but certainly not "sore from laughing" nor full of "Non-stop wit"

I'm not sure what has made it "Marvel's most clever and ambitiously successful film". It was a very thin heist film with a simple hook.

The cast are serviceable yet could almost entirely be recast. Michael Pena hits the mark just by doing his thing which is almost just a young Luis Guzman.

It was fun, but nothing I'm clambering to see again.
