Not much to add, but wow!

Rating: 9/10 (20 March 2019)

Quite honestly, there isn't much to add in a review that hasn't been said multiple times already, so I'll say this:
I am not, nor have I even been a comic book guy. Even at 45, I've never had an interest. That means that I have no major understanding or connection to the Marvel characters and universerse beyond what the movies feed me. Thankfully, my 16 year old son doesn't get tired of telling me the backstory on certain characters, places, or origins if I want more information on specifics in any of the movies.
This particular film had a lot going on, as there were so many different groups of super heroes on various pieces of the quest. Not that I couldn't follow it, but it was definitely more than a typical Marvel flick.
Overall, this was just a pretty darn incredible flick. The writing was good, the acting was no different than I've come to expect in a Marvel flick, the direction was good, the sound was superb, the fx were absolutely MARVELous, and the production was simply out of this world. Those facets combined made for a great viewing experience. When I saw the duration of nearly 2 1/2 hours I was a little turned off, but after the first 45 minutes, the need for such a lengthy film was obvious, and by the time it finished it certainly hadn't felt like 2 1/2 hours. That's a good thing! Though I must admit...seeing all these Super Heroes die made me wonder what Marvel has up their sleeve, as they can't just kill off a bunch of dudes (and dudettes) who pay the bills for the studio. My son's theory is that they are trapped - or being kept- in the soul stone, but I think it will have more to do with the time stone. Either way, with the next one hitting theatres in 2019, we should find out soon.
Very enjoyable, action packed eye candy of a movie.
