She went too far for some people, but not far enough for others. That’s fine, because she ultimately made the film for herself. She did what she needed to do to satisfy Kevin Feige and the suits at Marvel, while still putting her own stamp on the material, telling the story that she wanted to tell, in the way that she wanted to tell it.

For some, that means it will be neither fish nor fowl, and that’s an understandable reaction. On the other hand, for those who are open to its offbeat rhythms and who relate to the universal humanity exhibited by its ostensibly inhuman characters, it’s a rather remarkable achievement.
