Decided to watch _Black Widow_.
Should I do an after-action report?
Timeline: shortly after _Civil War_.
Black Widow is on the run when her attempt to hide out is broken by the delivery of an unexpected package.
Now she has to get back together with her family (of Soviet spies) to take down the Red Room, responsible for her creation.
It's basically a Bond flick, but set in the MCU.
Most superhuman feats are either action movie cool with no explanation, or justified by the top tier spy training/brainwashing of the Red Room.
It was roughly similar in quality to the other MCU movies. If you enjoyed those, you'll like this just as much, unless you hate spy movies.
If you're lukewarm on the MCU, I doubt you'll find a lot to care about here.
Scarlet Johanson did get an Executive Producer credit.
The MCU timeline is about to run out for Soviet superspies/supersoldiers.
In our timeline the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. This movie opens with deep cover spies in Ohio in 1995.
Maybe the USSR lasted a few years longer in the MCU Universe.
