I hoped for more

Rating: 8/10 (28 April 2019)

Since the first Iron Man movie I was a big fan of the show. It was a very good movie with lots of good moments, but i have to say after Infinity war I feel disappointed.
First of all I felt like the avengers cheated. They say that they got only 1 shot at it, because they have only so much of the stuff, (which sounds unfulfilling for me already) but then they just go back and grab more, so if they just grab 1 extra every time (its not the same timeline, infinite timelines) they can get as many shots as they want. They also don't wanna bother the other timelines, but they end up screwing that timeline big time. Cap is at the lake so he has gone back to their original timeline (which Bruce said isn't the case with time travel, as they went back those events didn't happen in the orignial timeline, so it had to be another one). There are other examples I could list. So i feel that with time-travel they just took a too big bite, it just cannot be explained in two sentences, whole movies/movie series incorporate the idea of course it will feel off for any viewer who can't help themselves not to think.
They kinda murdered the character of Thanos for me. Thanos was the guy who saw it as his duty to save the universe from itself sacrificing whatever it takes, even his most precious daughter. He respected Stark to the very end of Infinity War. Everything he did felt rational. But in Endgame his conversations get all angry, subjective and unreasonable. You obviously don't have to destroy the whole world and rebuild it just because some superintelligent fellow with friends who had personal interests, figured out a way to fight back.
Thor was also strangely treated. It was funny that he got fat and all (which i don't know how the Thor fans feel about), but why didn't he get back inot shape for battle or at least try? Also back in Infinity War he oneshotted Thanos even with the full gauntlet, and now he didnt stand a chance (if you say he suprised him then remember, he caught the axe many times while he was turned around). Obviously you can say after this that he was weaker since he was fat etc. but then they could just wait for him to get into shape etc.. Furthermore, if Cap got the powers of Thor and can handle both of his weapons then Thor becomes pretty degraded.
On the bright side i have to give a huge credit for the character developments, they nailed them. The fight scenes felt better than ever. They made Antman feel epic after joking about him. So many epic moments, Cap with the broken shield and that iron man line with the snap just amazing.
