Sad that so much was wasted on nothing

Rating: 4/10 (14 May 2018)

I collected the comics when I was a kid, for twenty years, and seeing these movies is a bit of a downer. Sure the action is good and the CG is mostly great, but the story is nothing like the comics I collected. There are too many jokes. Too much humor. Too many characters that don't need to be there and where not there originally.
I sat through the movie and enjoyed it for what it was, a visual fun fest. The story lacked depth. Thanos's desire to have all the stones and to destroy 50% of life was terrible because the real story wasn't told. The story they showed was a lie for the purpose of doing a cash grab.
Again, for action it was awesome. It is fast paced and there is very little slow time in the movie. It is the script I didn't like.
Sigh. I think I'll just stop watching movies. I think they, Hollywood, has forgotten how to make them great.
