Marvel's most controversial and newest superhero movie has arrived, and what better way to end the summer season than introducing the first Asian superhero from the Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise to the world? Like it or not, Shang-Chi has arrived.

| Marvel's Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings |
Starring Simu Liu as the titular character, Tony Leung, Awkwafina, and many others, the newest entry to the Marvel Cinematic Universe is about a young man who tries to confront his pasts while he was getting involved with the mysterious Ten Rings organization.
Why is it controversial, you may ask? The producers are shaping what will this titular hero be before getting adapted to the big screen. Of course, there are plenty of loopholes and loose ends regarding the hero's concept as well as some controversial undertones lurking beneath the hero's origins. By reshaping Shang-Chi to the big-screen adaptation, they wanted to make sure that he's a certified Marvel superhero, no matter what.
While such results yield mixed comments from the MCU fanatics, this movie also suffers the same loopholes and loose ends as the character concept itself. Like for instance, the character Awkwafina played in this movie. It's a long story short but this is why this movie is controversial in every way.
However, despite being a controversial movie that yielded some mixed reactions, it's a great movie to watch from the beginning to the end and no matter the outcome, this movie is proof that the folks from Marvel are ending the summer season with their newest superhero that will mark a whole new legacy in the MCU franchise, whatever that means.
Like it or not, the arrival of Shang-Chi in the MCU marks a new beginning to the MCU franchise and whichever direction it's heading, expect big things to come after this film.
