I think it was quite good. It was less of a standalone movie than the first one, and had less of a "I can't believe they pulled this off!" feel than the first one (or, arguably, Thor and GotG) did. It crammed a ton of story into a pretty dense flick, handled some origin stuff quite well, and ticked a lot of boxes for a serialized universe (more character back story, more hints of things to come, tying up some things while introducing new threads to dangle, nods to the source material). I was really impressed how it juggled such a tremendous number of characters. And I liked how it set up the Avengers roster going forward.
