Did I see the same movie that everyone else did?

Rating: 6/10 (29 April 2019)

I know I'm risking my own life here by not giving it a 9 or a 10 and praising the movie, but here's my opinion.
First of all I didn't think this was a bad movie. It was fun and fulfilling, but I had much higher expectations after infinity war. There were some good action scenes, there was a lot more story, and the ending battle scene was very fun to watch. However it may just be me, but my expectations were a lot higher. When I saw that the movie was 3 hours long I was excited and was hoping that it would give us a ton of fighting and destruction and emotional scenes with tons of reveals and great pacing and all that. I did not find that. Instead I got a confusing, emotionless drama where no one seemed to care anymore. None of the characters seemed to care that this was their last chance, no matter what. Hulk and Thor didn't take it seriously (Thor is now fat, for comedic effect), and Tony Stark didn't want to try for a second time but everyone else took it a little more seriously, but not to the point where it should be. The directors tried to make it more light-hearted, but in my opinion I would have liked to see a more serious Marvel movie where everyone has a sense of urgency and everyone knows the stakes. Another problem I had was the pacing. It is very slow at the beginning, since it tries to set the scene and establish the tone of the movie. All of the characters are assembled, and they all chill at the Avengers HQ for a while, and Captain Marvel is so cocky. It made me pretty mad that a character with that much power is so unwise and not respectable. Then Ant-Man comes in, and he proposes the idea of the Quantum Realm to the Avengers. This is another problem I have with the movie. The movie does a very poor job of explaining how the Quantum Realm works and how time works regarding the Quantum Realm. It would have been a lot better if they found an easier way to explain it, if there is an easier way, or just not used the concept at all. The entirety of the second act consists of all of the Avengers trying to obtain the Infinity Stones in the past, with some minor action scenes and a good amount of comedic relief. The third act is by far the best part, with all of the fighting that I was expecting to be more strewn out throughout the movie. I am fine with this scene though, since I liked that they had all of the Avengers come together at once. I did think it was kind of ridiculous that Captain America picked up Thor's hammer though, but I thought it was a good addition to the fight scene. Also, why did Captain Marvel come in so late? She could have destroyed Thanos's whole army before it caused so much chaos, but instead she comes in much later.
Like I said, I did not think this was a bad movie. However I do not think Avengers: Endgame deserves a 9.1 on IMDb. There were many inconsistencies with this movie and Infinity War, but I thought this was an OK end to the Avengers Franchise. I expected more, but that's OK, I will take what I got.
