It all comes full circle

Rating: 8/10 (28 February 2020)

SYNOPSIS:
It's Avengers. You know this.
REVIEW:
I'll keep this one brief as it's Avengers: Endgame and I don't there's much to say that hasn't been said. Since this is in my Top 10 of 2019, I do want to get a review out for it.
This culmination of 23 films was done beautifully. The task that the Russo brother had was absolutely no easy feat. You can say the time-travel aspect was confusing and I know some people really disliked the route they took with Thor and Hulk, but at the end of the day they tried things out. This easily could've been fan service from beginning to end and have a bland storyline if they set out to find Thanos (which they obviously will) and defeat him. Would I still love it? Sure. However, when they at least try to conclude this era of the MCU with creativity I think that adds a lot to the sentiment. You clearly have two directors who are pouring their hearts out for the fans while making an entertaining story that's not just fan service for the sake of fan service. For myself, yes it dragged at times, but it's one of those films that I wouldn't take anything out because everything is sewn in a particular way to the overall story. Having seen the movie 4 times I actually understand what they were going for. It's a bit too much to explain my understanding here, but I think if you watch it and just listen to what Banner says that you might understand it too. Now, something that they imply at the end definitely doesn't add up to how they explained their time-travel, but they had so much to work with that I don't think it's fair to nit-pick everything as I truly believe no one could've made an absolute perfect ending of this capacity. I love Stark ultimately making the selfless act and Cap making the selfish act when throughout all of the other films it was reversed. That really brought everything full circle and put a gigantic smile on my face. I appreciate this film so much and I really appreciate the Russo Brothers for putting in the work they did and the passion really shows. 8.7/10.
