Ignore the haters

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2020)

I'm writing this month's after it was released, months after I saw it in the theaters. I saw it opening weekend. And honestly I've never felt that way coming out of a movie before. So many emotions, all swirling in my heart and head at once. It was utterly overwhelming. My personal experience was intense but based off the reactions of the rest of that theater crowd, so was everyone else's.
I like to watch a movie multiple times to see how it stands up. Watch for plot holes, inconsistencies, watch the acting again. See if things seemed forced or ingenuine. See if it brings up emotions again and again.
Today I'm watching it again. Still I feel the anger, sadness, grief, excitement, and thrill! The performances are amazing (although I'm not a fan of a blended Bruce Hulk being) and the pain they go through is gut wrenching.
No it's not perfect. Yes it's heavy, and the first 1/3 to 1/2 of the movie doesn't really have "superheroes". But that's why it's so powerful. They are broken, just like all of the universe is. They are human, struggling in an existence that doesn't make sense and they couldn't stop from happening. They miss their family and friends.
The last 1/3 of the movie is the perfect way to end this story.
Very well done. Compared to so many others out there lately, this one got it right.
