Watched two in the theatres:
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
IMO, the strongest Marvel movie post-Endgame. Toughest part about these movies are developing a good villain (while growing the legacy characters) and they did that here but I thought the actor lacked the chops to pull it off completely.
Avatar 2
I went in fairly skeptical being the first was a fairly mediocre story with nice visuals. I also despise 3D. But this is an absolute in-theatre blockbuster spectacle. Took over a decade to get this done and visually, I can see why. Sometimes it felt more like a glorified tech demo but my god what a tech demo it was.
The story was fine. Probably, at best, in the range of your average Marvel film. But you're paying money to SEE it and it's a technological/visual achievement.
