I think that's a very fair way to feel about it. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and it gets a lot right, but there's definitely some things they could've tweaked and polished to bring it closer to greatness.
Some of the hand-hold-y dialogue in particular...
"Did you know, red suns actually let us get-"

For me personally, I've always struggled most with its tendency to stumble into tonal whiplash; I started up the premiere yesterday and immediately felt thrown by the jump from unnerving grit to wacky antics after just a minute into it.

understandable and severely relatable 🥲🥲🥲 I've got a ton of stuff on my watch-list that people have been telling me "dude it's amazing you gotta see it" but it's all.. dark and heavy and stressful 🙈 so I'm letting it sit there until I find the sunnier disposition that I'll need to handle it too

I would simply reveal the USB charger port on the back of my skull and say "you've passed my test; well done. It's time for the electronic revolution, but don't worry, I know you're cool, so just, one sec- lemme go get the printer real quick, I gotta tell him the good news-"

Demon Slayer is definitely high on my list! I think I'd definitely qualify as an action-head when it comes to anime.. though I loved getting depressed by Attack On Titan quite a bit, too.
and Charlotte is in my notes to check out, actually; I saw a couple clips the other day and I'm curious 🙌

Amazing game. Played it when I was way too young for it, but that just helped it seem even more mind-blowing for me. I think I had the GameCube version...

Snake Eater has been aging like wine for twenty years now, so when it comes to finding a game that could transition into the modern era with style and grace, THIS is it.

As someone who wasn't entirely sold by the early marketing for this film, I am still incredibly hopeful for its success, and if James Gunn can bring even half of the heart and energy of the Guardians' trilogy to this movie, it ought to be damn good.
Can't wait to check it out, man.
