I was kind of meh with eternals

I think the cast was to big to give emotional depth to 10 or so characters. It’s the kind of show that would have benifitted from the Loki treatment in a series.

There was so much exposition to set up everything and so many characters to introduce that outside Sersi and Sprite I didn’t care about any of them.

Spoiler!

The way it was it was too long but also not enough depth.

Ajaks being betrayed by Icarus didn’t matter to me. The eternals dilemma of 7 billion lives for the emergence of a being that would create trillions dilemma didn’t resonate. The evolutionary divergent didn’t add anything. I think given 6-8 hrs they could have done much better. The way it was it was too long but also not enough depth.
