(nodding at all of your reactions). Just wanted to chime into to say I saw it in a large theater last night and the scene discussed above with a key performance by Jenny Agutter's character (white font)
the ENTIRE audience groaned out loud when the mask pulled off out of sheer disappointment.
Every one. To a person.
The reaction was spectacular
.
Okay, that's hilarious. That reaction seems to be universal.
t edit
And yet, I bet if it had actually
been real, people/reviewers would have been saying it was totally unrealistic (within the logic/rules of a comic-book movie).
Every (fannish) reaction I've read has said the same.

That reaction makes me glad to be part of humanity!
Is Jenny Agutter someone I'm supposed to know?
The stranger next to me (a man who was in his 30s or 40s) actually exclaimed
"dammit" when the mask was pulled off
.
Nice interview with the writers (major spoilers, do not click if you haven't seen the movie).
The reaction of the
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
cast to the movie is pretty funny:
I know they showed the movie to the cast of the show, and when the third act happened, their jaws dropped. They were like, "Do we have jobs anymore?" It's gonna be fun for the show. It gives them a direction to go; it motivates them.
Dang it, P-C, I was just about to link that and highlight that same quote.
I'm beginning to think you're the Clairvoyant.

I just this moment realized she's sister Julienne on Call the Midwife!

I love Jenny Agutter! She was in American Werewolf in London, and Logan's Run and Walkabout.
Sort of a cult British 70s actress.
