it's a comic movie, things are meant to be over the top and unrealistic, so why not just sit back and enjoy what we're being given?

Rating: 8/10 (11 May 2019)

Leaving the cinema quite weirded out the first time round I went to see it a second time few days ago and now I can say that as a huge Marvel fan, I am more or less satisfied with how things ended. Of course it's a superhero movie containing a lot of CGI, a lot of things that don't make sense at all and it's not flawless at all but for me, it was great fun, and the way they managed to create this universe and have all these films connected is just amazing. I loved the journey and I loved most parts of this film.
I'd like to address some points (open questions to me, things I loved, things I'm not that fond of etc.) in particular (huge SPOILERS for those who haven't seen it yet!):

The very end of that movie was way too cheesy for my taste. Of course, with Tony a major character died and with Steve another major character arch came to a conclusion, and yes we're all sad that Nat is gone and yes we're all happy that Clint was reunited with his family, but all in all it was way too long and too hollywood-esque played on one's heart strings. For me, this could've been solved in a more classy way.

I'm a bit confused as of why the entire time travel theme seems to cause so many misunderstandings and so much anger. It's been etablished in this movie that when you travel back in time you're not changing your former present but create another timeline. So therefore it's very clear to me that if Nebula from the future kills Nebula from the past she doesn't vanish.

I often read that people wondered as of how Thanos was able to travel to the future, which also was perfectly well explained in the movie: Nebula from the past was seen opening a portal to let him in, using the time machine the Avengers have built.

How on earth did Valkyrie manage to bring a pegasus?! She's been living in Sakaar all those years after the Valkyries had been defeated by Hela and then went on a space ship, travelled to Asgard, fought there against Hela again and then travelled towards earth where she helped building New Asgard, so how could she have had a flying horse?

Sometimes there was a bit too much fan service. F.e. the entire scene with Korg and Miek was simply just to let us see these two again, but having them around didn't lead to anything.

I loved the entire Thor story arch. That guy has been through so much and felt so guilty and useless because he didn't go for the head in the first place so him having this depression was only natural. And I felt that Chris Hemsworth was having a blast shooting this film, which always brings out the best of him.

I loved the humour. Especially seeing so much of Scott Lang in this movie was very cool.

I'm going with the opinion of Valkyrie that she liked Hulk and Banner better before they merged into one but then again, some development in that story is also nice to see.

The most epic scene for me was when in preparation of the big battle all that were snapped away and been brought back turned up.

Why on earth was Thanos so strong, even without the stones?

In the beginning, Cap states they had been looking for Thanos but were unable to find him. Only when Nebula mentions 'The Garden', Rocket out of nowhere suddenly knows what planet Thanos is on. Why didn't he mention that earlier?

I often read people were disappointed that there was only one real battle in this movie as they expected it to be more of a fight but I found this very cool. Infinity War was very much of a fighting movie so I was glad this one wasn't that much. Even superheroes don't have to fight all the time to make an impression.

I could go on and on with that but after watching it a second time I figured out why exactly I wasn't that happy with that movie after seeing it the first time round: For me it all was too simple and I was puzzled as of how much I had been able to get right by watching the trailers etc. Many of my theories were just proven right and normally, this doesn't happen. And many things were too easy in my opinion, f.e. that everyone wondered how Ant-Man would be able to leave the Quantum Realm without the help of the others and then a rat pushed all the right buttons by accident?
But then - it's a comic movie, things are meant to be over the top and unrealistic, so why not just sit back and enjoy what we're being given?
