A good movie, but certainly not as good as some of these reviewers make it

Rating: 7/10 (14 October 2018)

This is going to be a highly downvoted review due to my criticism of the movie, which feeds into what I'm about to get into.
First off, the movie was good and was well worth my time and money to see it opening weekend. Marvel has always amazed me with the scale and inter connectivity of the MCU which has never been seen before to any level of this extent, and this movie was certainly one of the most demonstrative one of Marvel's ability to connect together these heroes into one timeline.
However, apart from this demonstration of their ability to connect so many characters, the movie was just a standard super-hero film. It was far from the best movie in the MCU. The soundtrack was okay, far from the level of the works of say Hans Zimmer or James Gunn. The cinematography was decent, but Thor Ragnorok definitely gave Infinity War a run for its money in this department. And the plot itself was expected and anticipated: big villain shows up and throws people around, not much different from the poorer attempts of Sony to make a good super-hero movie.
The movie itself made good pacing for its long run time, and I found it hard to find a slower scene in the middle to use the restroom after accidentally ordering something larger than a small drink. It constantly kept me on the edge of my seat and controlled my emotions for the characters.
Overall, watch and enjoy the movie. However, don't go around citing this as the greatest movie of all time as a lot of the die-hard marvel fan-boys have. If you think this is the best movie of all time, go diversify what you have watched and ensure you've seen a lot of the movies on IMDB's top 250 list.
