Probably my favorite movie of all time

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2018)

For context, I'm a huge MCU fan, thus my review towards the title might be a bit biased. I do ultimately think though, that this is one of the best movies I've ever seen, probably even the best.
I want to start off with the vast greatness of the whole MCU. All the previous movies, building up characters, defeating various villains.. Everything led to this moment, where the heroes finally get their ultimate test. I actually do think this movie probably isn't nearly as enjoyable if you haven't seen the other MCU movies, leading up to this.
The plot was intensive, starting off from ruins of Asgard's people. I just found it incredible how fast they actually managed to show Thanos's power, desire and ambition for his mission. I think the character itself was also portrayed really well. Thanos radiated charm, he was a really good speaker, thus he was relatable in it's own way. Ruthless, but still thoughtful and well-spoken.
I actually have developed a habit where I keep checking the clock during the movie to see for how long I've been watching. It helps me to comprehend how immersed I am into the movie. I've got to say, I didn't check the clock once during this movie, and I also felt like the movie ended really quickly. I was so immersed.
I also just love the actors portraying each of the avenger. Because we see the actors rather often in new Marvel titles, I've kind of started to see them as the characters themselves. I couldn't imagine anyone else portraying Tony Stark, or Spiderman at this point.
To close this off, the movie really threw me off with the anti-cliche ending. We're so used to see the superheroes winning every time, I actually wasn't expecting it. I didn't know there's a sequel coming up before I saw the movie, thus it was quite an surprise to me. I also really haven't delved into the realm of comics so I had no expectations. The melancholic music kicking in when the credits started rolling was just.. I literally had no words. I couldn't think anything to say to my friends. I was just too mind blown.
That sums up my thoughts and the experience about the movie. I'm quite excited about the sequel. MCU has been killing it during the recent MCU movies and I hope they'll keep doing it !
