The messy end of an Era.

Rating: 6/10 (28 April 2019)

I'm not a fan of the MCU, but I saw all the movies to understand this one and maybe because this type of films are not my type, but every time I analyze the plot of Endgame I like it less because it literally doesn't make any sense.
Time travel is one of the most important things to take care of and explained so that the story makes sense, this movie simply tells you 'don't worry about how it works because we will do what we want' that is to say it is used as a resource for make fanservice (I don't dislike it) but it affects the consistency of the plot and the development point of the characters in the previous movies.
The Characters; Thor is a character with a clear arc that for some reason they decide to destroy it and use it as a comic relief when he is a very strong character who falls into depression because he has lost everything and apparently that is funny? The sacrifice of Natasha when she began to have a development away from her romance and that apparently being sterile turns a woman into a monster... it feels like a punishment, for which she must pay for what she did because it's treated like she wasn't important, she don't even has a funeral and of course, she deserved be in the final battle. Capitan America arc is about don't given up and accepting what happened to him but he decides gives up and return to the past (I don't know how the Cap that stays in past creating an alternative timeline in a parallel universe appears in the this same timeline but old). The female characters are insignificant or are used as resources so that "feminist" scene isn't feminist at all because of how weakly and badly these characters are developed; Captain Marvel is a resource, the deux ex machina that with a solo film that connects her emotionally to the earth and some characters in a interesting way they have been unable to put any reference and show that she is an independent character with a life beyond this event so you don't see her as a real person and she feels off, wasted (love her hairstyle and her new suit, btw); Valkyrie has a minimum of development in thor 3 but not enough to be named queen of Asgard; Nebula is a tortured character that Marvel still doesn't recognize her trauma and how horrible it must be to face her past self and kill her past self for her sister... could be hours talking about the characters and how wrong they made them.
The final battle is spectacular and a tribute but I honestly can not understand how a character like Thanos is stronger without the infinity gauntlet than with it or his version of the past without the experience and determination that is achieved with character development and it's feels like is another villain that in IW. When at first they go to find Thanos, this is a character who has sacrificed everything for what he believes is right and as he has fulfilled his goal and has made the world a better place he has no motivation to continue living or fighting. The Thanos of the past is ambitious, not only believes that he is right but it is his destiny, maybe because it is a younger version but in my opinion it breaks the evolution and emotional charge of the villain as well as it happens with confrontation with the heroes since for the heroes the struggle with him is personal for all that he has taken from them but for Thanos it is personal because the heroes frustrate what is his destiny turning into a more cruel version motivated by a sense of entitlement taking away his sense of purpose and objective that the end justifies the means and he's the only one who has what it takes to accomplish this task because he is the only willing to make personal sacrifice for the greater good as opposed to the heroes who are unable to understand it and accept the sacrifice instead oppose it in a way that for Thanos is selfish.
That affects the emotional charge in my opinion in the final battle and the development of Thanos, when they involute his development is no longer that well-developed villain that although you may not agree on his methods but his goal is reasonable, This new version of him is caricatured as the bad one simplifying things. The devastating response to Scarlet Witch in the battle when she is facing him for everything that he took away from her and he simply says "I don't know you" is the most significant example I can give that the Thanos change affects the emotional charge of the film and the great character that was Thanos in IW
I understand that this movie is a closing of an era and a tribute, which for certain moments because the emotion of the end especially with Iron Man, the spectacularity of the final battle, when they believe that everything is lost and those that were missing appear to fight, the team up of the MCU women and all the teamwork to beat Thanos is the best that made me not give much importance to the script and plot problems but when I think about it I can not help but feel that this movie is spectacular, and emotional but also incoherent and a tremendous mess.
