Marvel just grew a pair

Rating: 10/10 (30 April 2018)

Though this is very much an Avengers movie, it feels like it could easily belomg to Thanos'. I always watched Marvel Movies in the same childlike glee I once had at a younger age, excited for the action and comedy but never really overly afraid or anxious of the outcome. More often than not, super hero movies end the way you expect them to, not much trepidation is required, and with Marvel's formula of mirroring what makes a villain I just couldn't ever feel the edge of my seat. This movie however, blew all that out the water. Not not only did they manage to create a monster I can sympathise with and at times agree with, they conjured up the perfect anti-hero. This is the film where Marvel put on it's big boy pants and, as a self proclaimed DC lover, it beats every super hero movie out there. In one word, shocking. Just...shocking.
