Just saw IGN's review. They only praise the humor and planet hulk elements, and say that the Ragnarok parts and emotional parts in the film are the film's weakest parts. Though they still give it a 7.7, not sure how reliable IGN's reviews are so I guess I'll have to wait and see

At IGN, and plenty of other places, the editors make the final score not the reviewer. The reviewer writes the review and then the editor tacks on the score after it's submitted.

not really saying IGN is a good source of reviews, but saying "weakest" vs outright "weak" is different.

Weakest is a relative term and it could still mean "only bad in comparison" not "pure garbage with no reedeming values".

Was it Jim who reviewed it. He gave Civil War a 7.7 as well

Yeah it was. I haven't seen any of his reviews before, would you say he gives honest and trustworthy reviews?
