Overhyped

Rating: 6/10 (1 May 2019)

You get what you get when less than a year was spent putting together a three hour movie, especially one as anticipated as this one. It felt very rushed and downright ridiculous at times. Infinity war was definitely better - I was on my seat the whole time; this movie, not so much.
I've heard a lot of people say that this movie was heart-wrenching and tear-jerking...maybe we just have different preferences because I felt like this movie didn't properly set that mood at all. Every time something grave or intense happened, and you started to really feel yourself getting into it, three seconds later something 'funny' or ridiculous would happen and ruin the mood.
Some good scenes; too many jokes and iffy scenes (although, a few people were pretty hilarious). Too many weird things that could have been left out. Too many things that frustrated me to the point that I was just throwing my hands in the air while simultaneously questioning why some characters didn't choose to do things differently. I was eye rolling a lot near the end. Too many individuals deserved more screen time than they received, and some were given too much of it. Some individuals just became downright annoying to me, some left me surprisingly delighted.
I dunno, I liked it but it definitely had the potential to be much better. Not really sure why people are freaking out after having seen it. It was just alright.
