**Mild spoilers ahead**
Avengers: Infinity War culminates 10 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe(MCU)'s world-building and makes a TREMENDOUS pay-off in this two-and-a-half hour action adventure epic that is part swashbuckler and part space-opera. The Russo Brothers deliver the screenplay of a lifetime from Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely; and boy the two duos that have single-handedly shaped the MCU into what it is today. They direct a star-studded cast featuring the likes of Robert Downey Jr., Peter Dinklage, Benedict Cumberbatch, Josh Brolin, Bradley Cooper, Tom Holland and Mark Ruffalo. That's only PART of the ensemble cast this film has to offer. And the story; my god the story and scale of this movie: IT'S INCREDIBLE; and it's basically a full-fledged space opera now!
For those of you who aren't ardent superhero nuts but passively love Spider-Man all the same (like I do), get this: SPIDER-MAN IS IN SPACE! From the ambitious union of characters built around 10 years of multi-billion-dollar filmmaking culminates in one of the ultimate cinematic experiences your hard-earned money can buy and be considered a well-earned investment all-round. Witty quips, Beatles references, a Flash Gordon quip from Peter Quill, it's just a great-great time at the movies.
Infinity War is a space-opera with superheroes; and it's comparable to the likes of The Star Wars Trilogy, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and, (heck, maybe even) The Dark Knight Trilogy. This is cinema bursting at the seams; but it's GOOD bursting as opposed to muddled bursting (Suicide Squad is one such misfire).
MARVEL; you've made quite the pay-off this time. Keep it up!
