A very underwhelming end.

Rating: 6/10 (26 April 2019)

I should start off by saying that I am someone who has grown a little tired of the MCU. All the films have begun to feel very formulaic and you know exactly what's going to happen even if you haven't read the comics. The cringey humor is also a huge turn-off for me. After Infinity War I took a little break.
With all of that being said I was really hoping Engame was going to change my mind on the MCU. I was hoping for something spectacular that would make me say "I guess this is why the MCU has such loyal fans." But sadly it didnt. Not even close. I feel sorry for huge MCU fans that this film was their sendoff to 10ish years of Marvel. Because what an unfortunate send off it was.
1. This film did not need to be 3 hours long. There were so many times where I felt myself feeling bored and checking the time. There where many moments where it just seemed to drag on way too long. A mot of these scenes good have been condensed.
2. The writing reminded me of bad Fanfiction. It was lifeless and flat. The dialogue between characters sounded so forced and fake. At first I thought everyone was doing a poor acting job but I really think it was the script that was causing this.
3. The cringey kids humor was way too much. The tone of the film was either Disney Channel Original Movie or serious war drama. There was no balance the two tones did not mix well at all. Hulk dabbing...seriously? And I dont even want to go into full detail of how awful Thor was. It was very unfortunate that thats how they chose to have the character. Him getting fat ans playing Fortnite? Tacky.
4. The final battle wasn't even that exciting. The CGI didn't look good and there were no moments where I was like "WOW that was amazing!" It was all stuff we had seen in the films before. Nothing new.
I did enjoy Clint Barton's storyline throughout the film. I really enjoyed the two Nebula's and that bit. Tony's funeral and Steve's happy ending were both emotional. But that's really the only few things I enjoyed. Even Stan Lee's cameo was a let down.
People were freaking out about spoilers but there really isn't anything to spoil. It ends exactly how everyone expects it to. The only sort of shocking moment is Black Widow's death but even then it wasnt super shocking. A friend compared the film to that of an under seasoned chicken and I would have to agree.
