I mean, we're talking about a movie that was clearly produced just to milk the Marvel superhero franchise a bit more, vs anything really theatrically significant. For a while now, the sad reality is that Hollywood movies have been so lackluster, almost the only ones worth paying the high ticket prices to see have been the superhero themed ones. (It's a lot harder to completely screw up a comic book story than a complex novel or series of novels with extremely detailed writing.) But they've reached the satu
It wasn't a bad movie, it just came at the wrong time. With the Thanos saga and original Avengers stories wrapped up they made this movie about setting up Black Widow's replacement in the franchise, rather than setting her up like they did with all the other solo Avengers movies.
For whatever reason they didn't seem to think that Black Widow (the character) would be popular and didn't bother giving her solo stuff like Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk and even Dr. Strange got. Once they realized that they had a popular character on their hands it was too late to really do anything about it.

The first 3 quarters of the movie were good. The last quarter was so bad, I'll probably never watch it again
