Can't watch again!

Rating: 6/10 (3 May 2019)

Despite the grandeur and stunning effects and production of this movie, I am sad to report that I can't bear to watch this movie again, unlike the other movies in the MCU which I enjoy watching again and again. Simply because the direction of the franchise was to make the Avengers lose at this point.
I just can't shake the feeling of frustration in the way they made Thanos and his henchmen so powerful and nearly invincible, and the Avengers (namely Scarlet Witch, Dr Strange, Vision) helpless against them. Of course, the producers, director and writers had to do this because that's the direction they wanted it to go - and I just can't stand to see it again.
I can't stop myself from thinking of all those other possible ways of how each Avenger could have easily defeated the villains in the different scenes. But, of course, if the writers or producers allowed that, then the Avengers would have easily won the infinity war and Thanos wouldn't look so formidable and inevitable. But that is the direction they chose for the franchise - to make Thanos inevitable. When, in fact, there are so many ways Thanos did NOT have to be inevitable.
So this is where this movie just loses me as a fan. Watching it once was enough. The plot was to make the Avengers lose and weaker. It's pretty much how I feel when I first saw the first X-Men movie - they made the heroes so weak and helpless against the villains. Plot manipulated and utterly frustrating! Sorry!
Nevertheless, it is still a truly stunning production!
