We’ve talked at length about how Phase 4 is the most controversial of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And while I’ve been perfectly satisfied with it, not everything has worked for everyone, even many of the entries I’ll proudly defend.

Case in point, the latest risk the studio has to offer, the terrific Werewolf by Night!
