Why God? Whyyyyyy?

Rating: 5/10 (28 April 2019)

Infinity War was the best Marvel movie ever made. The Russo brothers did a fantastic job at storytelling all those characters in one movie. But in Endgame they have just ruined some of the Character developments they produced in Infinity War.
What I liked:
1. Endgame is definitely the funniest Movie in the MCU. Even more so than Thor: Ragnarok. As much as I loved the comic relief in that movie, Endgame just seems more like a comedy than just comic relief which isn't entirely a good thing as I'll explain later.
2. Having the Avengers travel back in time to previous MCU movies was ingenious. It really gave me a warm fuzzy feeling revisiting those movies.
3. When Captain America weilds Thor's Hammer I got goosebumps all over. Such a great scene. I loved that Cap got to have a proper equal fight with Thanos and making him a large part in defeating Thanos.
4. Hawkeye's Character was really developed upon in this movie. He was more badass and I loved that he also had a large part in Endgame and wasn't just simply shooting arrows as he does in the other Avenger movies.
5. Having Ironman destroy Thanos and his Army was the single greatest thing the Russo brothers did. Yes he is my favourite alongside Thor but since he was the first to start off the Franchise he definitely has the right to finish it off.
6. I liked that Captain Marvel didn't have much air time she doesn't really connect with the other characters her powers are too celestial and doesn't fit with the rest of the Cast and also she just seems abit too dry for my liking. So cheers for that.

Dislikes:
1. Although Thor was hilarious they should not have let him fight Thanos at the end in his obese state. It looked so strange and I just kept thinking he looked exactly like Volstagg from Warriors Three. Taika recreated Thor in Ragnarok and made him more connecting with the audience and gave him that human element, which was great. Then the Russo's developed on that in Infinity War giving Thor that amazing scene when he enters Wakanda. Now in Endgame they just make him a joke. Yes I laughed so much in his scenes but before he fought Thanos they should have transformed him back to normal. He's meant to be a God so there were so many ways the Russo's could have transformed him back without making the audience think that it was too unrealistic.
2. In Infinity War Bruce Banner was having issues with the Hulk possibly because the Hulk kept thinking he was being used only when he was needed to solve the problem. In any case I thought it was great that they did that as it gave me such anticipation to see him unleash in Endgame. I assumed he was going to have a massive battle with Thanos after his transformation into the Intelligent Hulk. Especially as Thanos made a full of him in Infinity War. But in Endgame they made him seem like a joke aswell. Yes he was also hilarious at the beginning and ofcourse we need that comic relief it just adds to the character development and makes us more connected to him but we call them superheroes for a reason. We want to see more from them than just comic relief. He had no serious action sequences at all. He was just dismissed in the end battle scene.
3. Having Captain America go back to put the Infinity Stones in there rightful place was great. But then he lives a life with Peggy and re appears back as an old man. That was so depressing I can't even begin to tell you how dissatisfied I was with seeing him so old. I understand that they had to write him off as Chris Evans time with Marvel has come to an end. But what would have been less depressing was seeing his shield left on the bench with a note left for Falcon and as he's reading the note Steve is dancing with Peggy. Atleast we would remember him as a young man. Now all I'm going to remember is Cap as an old weak man.
4. I left the worst for last. Ironman dies!!! Yes I know we saw this coming especially from Infinity War when he's almost killed from Thanos. But a character so beneficial to the Franchise, how can you kill him off? Even if you were to kill him off that way. What was to stop Dr. Strange from grabbing the Time stone and reversing Time only on Tony To bring him back to life. The exact same way Thanos did to Vision in Infinity War. Doesn't make sense that Dr. Strange wouldn't think of that.
There's so many good elements in Endgame but they just couldn't produce the homerun that they did in Infinity War.
