Best Marvel movie since "Civil War"

Rating: 8/10 (28 April 2018)

First thing to be said, you'll leave the theater with a feeling of disappointment. How on Earth can the Avengers lose the Infinity War? Because that's exactly what happens at the end. That ultimate villain named Thanos sit and looks at the horizon thinking "well, it's done, I finally made it" while half of the Universe (and half of our heroes) lie dead. Not possible. That's not superheroes movies are meant to be.
Once that feeling washes off, you'll realize you just watched a great superheroes movie. It has all the action you expected for, amazing visual effects, a great soundtrack, and probably the best performances of every actor involved in a Marvel movie. The plot is not trivial but dense and deep, there's an incredible amount of characters but they work perfectly fine together, and you get really attached with some of them. Even with the villain: I heard more than a few persons saying about Thanos' motivations "well, maybe he has a point on that...".
I talked about performances. Josh Brolin is superb. Despite playing a CGI character, he manages to turn it into an acting masterclass. Three of the superheroines shines high too: Zoe Saldana (the best in my opinion), Elizabeth Olsen and Scarlett Johansson. Chris Hemsworth plays the best Thor I've seen. Of course the Sherlocks Duo, Robert Downey Jr. and Benedict Cumberbatch, are both magnificent. Chris Pratt, Don Cheadle, Tom Hiddleston, Dave Bautista, all of them are very well too. Bradley Cooper makes a better Rocket on every movie.
Dislikes? A few. I still don't get the idea about Groot. I'd be a little frustrated if were Vin Diesel and all I can do is say "I am Groot" a few times per movie. And I really don't undestand why Marvel has turned The Hulk into a comic relief. We saw Bill Bixby in the '70s series, we saw Eric Bana and Edward Norton in the first Marvel movies, and we saw Mark Ruffalo in the first two Avengers movies, all playing a complex character, struggling with his inside beast despite being superior scientists, and I still don't believe that those pitiful jokes are coming from Bruce Banner. At least, if he makes a joke, I'd like to laugh.
Anyway, it's really a good movie, undoubtly the best one from Marvel since "Captain America: Civil War". It's not unlikely that I go to the cinema to watch it again. I really enjoyed it. And if you saw it and you're still in pain because all of that dead superheroes, remember the last phrase on the screen: "Thanos will return". Someone has to be there to stop him, that's for sure.
