A lot of 80's and 90's action movies had deeper, better executed messages than most Marvel movies. Compare Rambo: First Blood's message about soldiers after the war, Terminator 2's themes about fate and destiny, or Robocop's satire of corporate culture and crime in the 80's with the likes of Thor: Ragnarok or Guardians of the Galaxy. Maybe a couple of Marvel movies have successfully had a bit of a message, like Winter Soldier, but usually if there's a serious attempt at a message it ends up a jumbled mess, like Age of Ultron and Civil War.
Yeah, but those movies are like these small time rarities compared to a vast majority of action movies which were just dumb and mindless fun. Also, when it comes to say Civil War, there's no way not to make it a jumbled mess, I mean look at the book it's based off that whole thing was a dumpster fire.
