Good, but not quite good enough

Rating: 7/10 (11 March 2020)

After the spectacular Infinity War, I was expecting a masterpiece to finish off the saga. I was a little disappointed.
Three quarters of Endgame was a nostalgic run through the previous movies. It was entertaining, but eventually I found it a little boring in all honesty. The end battle was predictably exciting but it didn't redeem itself enough for one major flaw...
Where was the Hulk? Aside from a small cameo at the beginning of Infinity War, the character has virtually been written out of the final two movies. Endgame portrays him as almost a new character, with little involvement in any battle scenes. For a character that required such a huge degree of redemption from the prior film, he was almost a secondary thought in this one.
I've watched and rewatched countless times to see if I missed something, but I don't think I have. This was a good movie, it just wasn't as good as it could have been.
