Infinity War - the War has begun

Rating: 8/10 (2 May 2018)

Infinity War deserves to be one of the best Marvel movie to have come out, if not the best. It truly combines all characters into a single story telling which is well laid out and gives every character a chance to shine.
Without going into the story and spoilers, I will highlight the pros and cons of the movie
Pros:
Thanos - after a decade of waiting we get to see him and he does not disappoint at all
Characters - most of the characters are in the film except of Hawk eye (whom I never liked) and AntMan. Each character gets good screen time especially Thor and Iron man and surprisingly Spider-Man too
Story - story is not so complex and continues where Thor 3 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 and CA Civil War ended. You will easily follow it if you can stay up for two and half hour
Cons
Thanos - yes that is true. There is no doubt he did an amazing job but his portrayal wasn't all that. I wished to see him in his full armor suit but he was bare head. Also he's supposed to be strong overall but movie seems to show the infinity stone makes him stronger
Missing characters- AntMan was missing and I have no idea why. No Captain Marvel cameo
End credit - there are end credit scene but you have to wait 15 mins for it after entire credit roll out and the scene is barely 20 sec
Ending - by the time movie finish you will know this is just the beginning. The entire movie was focus on Thanos collecting the infinity stone. What he is going to do with it is probably in the next infinity War
Climax - this was the let down for me. First the main fight takes place in an open ground of Wakanda. Second so many creatures took most of the screen time that Thanos himself comes at the end and the fight is very small. There was no scene at the end where all avengers jump on him to fight him (beside the scene at Titan where Ironman Spider-Man and doctor strange all fight him at once which was a better scene than final battle). This was a major let down also because the final scene was on open ground and not in the main city. Once one small scene in the beginning was shot in NYC which was pretty small and quick.
Scenes - some of the scene in trailer were not in the film it could be they are part of Infinity War II since they shot both films together
Hulk - no hulk smashing this time since Bruce banner had trouble becoming a hulk he is given a hulk buster armor
Overall the movie scores 8/10 on my scale and I hope the next part fills in the gap that were missed in Infinity War
