Truth be told, I don't enjoy the MCU. There's far too much style, not nearly enough substance.
I'd much rather watch superhero movies that are smaller in scale, with more emphasis placed on character development, than ones with big explosions, CG monsters, and megalomaniacal villains trying to take over the world.
I think they got the focus just right,these are supposed to be adventure stories for kids after all so the focus should be on the adventure.
Each movie has had enough moments to make me care about the characters and the setting so I don't really have a problem. I mean people have complained that the Spiderman and XMen series had too many shots of heroes crying so you have to find a balance and I think they did.
Then again i may just have awful taste in movies because I like those cheesy adventure shorts from the 30s and 40s and I enjoyed the two Fantastic Four movies. You may not want to take my word for what is good and what is bad.
