Well, where were our amazing protectors when several hundred innocent people walked into a lousy, two-hour, 37-minute movie Monday night?<\/p>\n<div class=\"inline-module inline-module--review alignleft\">\n<div class=\"inline-module__inner\">\n        <span class=\"inline-module--review__eyebrow widget-heading-semi__label\"><br \/>\n            movie review        <\/span><\/p>\n<p>        Running time: 157 minutes. Rated PG-13 (fantasy violence and action, some language and brief sexuality.) In theaters Nov. 5.\n    <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Eternals are powerful aliens that have spent 7,000 years on earth keeping the masses safe from the Deviants, which from what I gathered are wolves made out of twigs. However, like \u201cStar Trek\u201d\u2018s Prime Directive, they refuse to impact the course of history (they often screw up that last part.) \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The most important difference between the Eternals and X-Men, however, is that Hugh Jackman\u2019s Wolverine and Halle Berry\u2019s Storm are layered, fascinating character studies. Angelina Jolie\u2019s Thena has the personality of a bar of a soap and an accent that suggests her semester abroad in London was the best four months of her life.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/eternals-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Angelina Jolie and Ma Dong-seok join the MCU in &quot;Eternals.&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-19921393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/eternals-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/eternals-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/eternals-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Angelina Jolie and Ma Dong-seok join the MCU in \u201cEternals.\u201d<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">\u00a9Walt Disney Co.\/Courtesy Evere<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>All the characters are similarly bland.

Speaking of which, Denis Villeneuve\u2019s \u201cDune,\u201d which hit theaters last Friday, showed theatergoers the wonderment well-done CGI can achieve and how Marvel so regularly makes us beg for the bare minimum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEternals\u201d whisks us to a lot of places like that \u2014 Iraq, South Dakota, Mexico, Mesopotamia, Babylon. They all look exactly the same and make the movie feel like, well, 7,000 years.<\/p>\n<p>The dramatic open ending teases a sequel. The giggles in the auditorium throughout, however, suggest a reboot.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
