1) Black Widow: It was ok on its own. As part of MCU, it would have been better in the middle of phase 2, allowing to flesh out Natasha a bit more and stand on her own. I always felt that in all the other movies she was, she has always been defined by her relations to male characters (Hawkeye, Cap, Hulk).
2) Haven't seen it.
3) Liked it, but being familiar with the comics, the "Mysterio is the bad guy" reveal didn't do a thing for me. I've watched it with a friend who didn't know who Mysterio was supposed to be, and they were more excited by it.
4) Worst of the bunch for me. Better than Thor 2 and Iron man 2, but close to the bottom of my personal MCU rankings.
5) Best of the bunch. Plus Matt Murdock!!!!!!!!!!
6) I had high hopes for this, but it fell a bit short. I would have preferred if Wanda falling to the Dark Side happened/started during this movie, setting her up as the antagonist/villain for Strange 3, rather than in between Wandavision and this.
Overall, compared to phase 1, phase 4 feels more disjointed. Phase 1 movie were clearly more self-contained, yet they still manage to feel like they were heading toward some common destination, thanks to the Fury/SHIELD cameos and shorts. I don't get the same vibe for phase 4 yet.
