Ten years all lead to this cinematic masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (13 August 2018)

Before I review the film, a disclaimer might be needed. To fully appreciate this movie, you'll need to have seen at least one of the other avengers films or solo films to be somewhat familiar with the characters, otherwise you'll just end up very confused and not invested.
The anticipation for this movie was through the roof. Not often do you see people that hyped for a movie - especially a superhero themed flick. Avengers: infinity war had a lot to live up to.
The film revolves around Thanos, not the avengers, but Thanos is the main character. He definitely is a well created 'villain'. Though I am not sure villain is the right word to describe him. His intentions essentially are good, his method is just a tad morbid. It will make you question your morals, and it makes you think about the state of the earth, which is indeed overpopulated You'll find fans rooting for either Thanos or our heroes
The actors delivered a splendid performance, with heartfelt and realistic reactions to the events around them. The producers may have gone a bit overboard with the CGI, but it's done in such a beautiful and realistic way that you won't even notice.
One of the best things about this movie is that for once, you can't expect a good ending. Anything can happen. Usually with superhero movies you know that the heroes will survive, which takes away the tension. With Infinity War you truly don't know who will survive or not, so that makes every fighting scene very intense.
The soundtrack was exhilarating as well. Marvel is well known for its forgettable soundtracks, but this one was definitely recognisable. The avengers theme blasted through the cinema speakers and it was amazing.
The cinematography is gorgeous as well.
The film is amazing, but you do need to be familiar with the characters. There's a lot of things going on in this movie, and there obviously isn't any time to introduce every character. Marvel has spend ten years to set up this epic, so every past film is essential to fully appreciate the grand epic that Infinity War truly is.
