Just finished watching this in cinema. The visuals are great and the music is even better this time than the first. However I thought the story should've been condensed and the ending is really unexpected. Does anyone else feel like it should've been made clear that this was only half a movie?

Just finished the movie as well and I cannot describe how disappointed I am when I hear the main theme/bgm getting louder and louder, and the editing (how they cuts back and forth between the two) is clearly setting up a cliffhanger. And for sure I’m not the only one that felt the same way in the theatre.

Don’t get me wrong, I love this sequel. They clearly knew what makes the first one so good and they expanded on those elements - art style, music, story, etc. - they did it again and made them better. It’s the only marvel comics/movies/series/whatever that I watched in years just because I really love the first one. But the way they butchered the ending will make this part 2 forever right below the first one on my list, and make myself certain again that I won’t be watching any marvel’s stuff anymore after the final instalment is out next year.

Edit: just learned that the same thing happens to the Fast series as well. I guess it has become the norm now.
