Biggest Swing
The biggest drop occurs from the peak action sequence to the frustrating extended credits, falling 3.3 points as viewers appreciated the content but were annoyed by the runtime padding.
The short builds steadily from a routine gas station stop to an impressive action showcase for Agent Coulson, peaking during his creative combat sequence. However, sentiment drops significantly during the extended credits sequence, which reviewers felt padded an already brief runtime unnecessarily.
