I gave it the night to think it through. Overall, I liked this film but I didn't love it like I wanted to.
Starting with the obvious, Kamala did not disappoint. I absolutely LOVE her. She radiates so much charisma and energy and breathes life into this film, she is an absolute joy during every second of screen time. She's probably my favorite MCU character of all time after this, or at least near the top. Iman is genuinely RDJ level casting for this character. Additionally, there's some action that is quite creative and cool with the "switch" dynamic. Carol and Monica are likable enough in this (Carol a bit more so than she was in the first CM, she's not quite so distant here). Kamala's family can be quite funny at times, and the humor is generally solid without feeling too overdone.
On the flip side, Dar-Benn is an absolute trash villain. Among the MCU's worst and that's saying something. There was zero attempt to develop her properly. The movie's pacing is WAY too quick, it bounces between settings like a pinball, it becomes almost difficult to follow at times. It needed to be at least 15 minutes longer to let things breathe. This was definitely chopped up to some degree in the edit, there are very clearly scenes missing. Like how in the middle it immediately cut to The Marvels already wearing their new outfits. Nick Fury doesn't serve much purpose other than hanging around and saying quips, which is kind of bizarre.
Ultimately, despite some glaring flaws, I think Kamala saves this film for me, although I wish she could be put in a project that's truly great, remove her and this movie would probably be a bust. I intend on seeing this again soon so perhaps the movie could improve. 7/10 for now.

This really feels like something Fox/Sony would have released pre-MCU. I don't know how Feige and Co. are losing touch with what made MCU the MCU.
That being said, I didn't hate the movie.
