Seems like the MCU is just steadily getting farther into extreme fantasy and storylines that are so far from the "superhero" genre and much more into the "fairy tale" genre. I did not find this film engaging and there was no significant character development in one of the main characters (America) at all. The "Illuminati" was a combination of a toss-off of "What if" storylines, a gag, and a chance for cameos. This strikes me as Disney & the Marvel taking their audience for granted.
