Utterly Amazing.

So here it is, Avengers: Infinity War. After 10 years of waiting, or 6 if you count from his first appearance in Avengers Assemble, Thanos has finally arrived. All I can say is that the wait was worth it.
Firstly, the story lines are extremely well balanced. I could not imagine the difficulty of the task attempting to fit enough screen time for the likes of Thor, Star Lord and Iron Man into a singular film, however, the Russo brothers have managed to do so. They also managed to combine the 'right' characters in order to play off of one another. The snidey in love with themselves combination of Dr Strange and Tony Stark, to the humor and whit of Thor and the Guardians of the Galaxy. They all blended and worked so well together.
Secondly the CGI is quite possibly the best I have ever witnessed. Josh Brolins portrayal of Thanos shines through in so many way, not just his dark and gritty vocal work, but also the ability to show every single facial movement. Outstanding work from the graphics department for that one,
Thirdly, the tone set from the beginning of the film. It immediately shows the power and devastation Thanos is capable of, and the audience never feel a sense of safety for any of the heroes again.
Finally, and least surprising, is the action sequences. These action scenes have you on the edge of your seat from the get go. The heroes working with one another to try and take down Thanos and his 'lackeys' is some of the most compelling sequences I have ever witnessed. All of this action followed by a breathtaking soundtrack from Alan Silvestri.
The only negative thing I can say about the movie is that it is going to cost me a lot of money going to re-watch it time and time again.
Well done the Russo Brothers.
