Amazingly excellent.

Rating: 9/10 (1 May 2018)

I've really never been a big fan of the Marvel movies. I've done extensive research on them and read many of the comics but I haven't really been into them as much as lets say Star Wars or other movies you may feel fit the same type of scale as these movies do.
With that said DAMN! What a ride this movie was, from start to finish. It did have it's "lol" points but I feel that's to be expected from a "non James Gunn" directed MCU movie. It's small and spread out lol moments were very far and inbetween and rarely stood out and always felt as if they were advancing the story in the best possible way.
That was really my only problem with this movie. I found the lack of a traditional structure and character development to not hinder the movie as other critics have but instead kind've enhanced it. I'm glad Disney let the Russo brothers do their thing and make a gorgeously directed Marvel film with no limits especially for a movie as important as this AND after they received all the same backlash from the Star Wars fans for the The Last Jedi.
I feel comparing this movie to The Last Jedi is actually pretty fair match. They both are made by Disney, both have gorgeous cinematography and BOTH have great directors who are trying to bend expectations. The difference is with The Last Jedi you've seemed to feel stupid and belittled, while Infinity War pats you on the back and shows you one last time who these characters are and whose ass they're going to kick. Infinity Wars ending was a trumphiant and bold idea that i feel couldn't have been done any better.
Every single section scene and part of dialogue was exceptionally well done. The shocker ending making you think are they really going to do that? along with one of the best scores in a Marvel movie combine to create a wonder movie with possibly the best Marvel villain ever put on the big screen.
The ending I feel is perfect, it's something that takes you for a loop and leaves you heart struck. The thing that ruins it for me is the knowledge that it's going to be undone with the next Avengers movie, Spider-Man Homecoming 2, Ant-Man and the Wasp and Gardinas of the Galaxy 3. It would be better off to see the movie series end off here being that literally anything else added to this intricate and complex storyline will just make anything else feel like a bloated unnecessary epilogue to the movie making it feel like the stakes were for nothing. As it stands now though, no matter what happens to the MCU, this will always feel to me like the perfect send off.
Let the Avengers, assemble.
