Just couldn't get away from the feeling that we've seen this schtick before. I mean, it wasn't out-and-out bad, but certainly nothing original.

Original? The Marvel movies aren't really original but they are still considered to be good. Whats really original anyways? This movie was executed perfectly for what it was trying to be. Sorry but your gripes don't make sense to me

There's not much originality eft in the world. Practically ever idea has been done. At this point, we're just having different versions of basic plots. A hero saves the girl. A super team stops a villain. A mission to save he world. Running from a killer or a monster. Finding love in a comedic or romantic way. Surviving a tragedy. Same story, new events, different circumstances, but the basic core is the same.
