The bar has been raised

Rating: 10/10 (28 April 2018)

Like most people I went in expecting it to be good, and serviceably handle the number of characters that had to be balanced. I didn't expect it to do I in such a consummate, thrilling, emotional, funny and powerful way. There have been high water marks in different ways before in the MCU - Thor Ragnarok (comedy), Civil War (ensemble), Guardians 1 (left field-ness), but this raises the bar in every way.
