Much better than what I thought it was going to be, especially for such a relatively obscure comic franchise that even Marvel fans like myself never thought that highly of. Though, I must say, Tony Leung (Wenwu/The Mandarin) was the heart and soul of this movie - in a less racist world, he should be been a big crossover star in his prime.
Awkwafina was, once again, basically playing a version of herself and essentially her character from Nora From Queens. I see no real reason she was in this other than because she's currently the most popular Asian-American actress/comedian of the moment. Her character screams of "let's just cast Awkwafina because she's Asian and give her any damn role!"
