More real for sure; and potentially a better plot by some distance - but I just think it was told so poorly that it almost becomes moot. It takes all those good ideas and turns it into a punch-fest.
Sure, IW was a punch-fest too, but it felt more purposeful (if for a more generic reason).
I don’t entirely disagree with your civil war assessment - I too picked out the plot holes when it was released - the best MCU movies are miles away from the dark knight trilogy
But in the context of the MCU, I enjoyed it more than IW
IW is the bigger movie no doubt, doesn’t mean its better.
The black order for instance were shit, completely wasted.
Generic alien army of Stranger Things like demodogs were easily wiped out once Thor arrived
Thanos was awesome, but he spent decades trying to collect the infinity stones with no luck - he does it in the space of a few hours in IW
IW didn’t have the best action
It wasn’t the funniest
Didn’t have the best plot (most important thing for me)
Too many characters for it to focus on character development (unless you count Scarlett witch losing her accent for some reason)
It was enjoyable, but not in my top 3 MCU - and that’s not a bad thing
