The first MCU movie based on something totally new in five years arrives in the form of "Eternals". How does Marvel introduce a whole new set of characters while expanding the cosmology of their cinematic universe? Why are critics being so negative towards this film? Where does it shine and where does it fall over itself?

To avoid SPOILERS for "Eternals", skip over 43:17- 59:43 of the episode.
