I think Shang Chi was good up until the MCU ending up until the third-act it felt like a completely different type of film which is what I was happy about

I loved Shang chi, but hated the third act. I just wanted more of what the rest of the film gave us. I was hoping for a Jackie Chan-esque set piece ending. But instead we got budget infinity war.

Agreed, I felt the “monster” or evil behind the door was better left a mystery for a later movie or something else. The heart of the movie to me was the relationship between the characters.
The father-son-daughter struggle for an ending would have been better to me. I think Marvel can take risks but they need to take risks like not having a third act battle all the bloody time!
