Sorry, but what's to like so much?

Just like with Star Wars Episode VIII the latest Avengers are all about meaningless fussing around. A lot of familiar characters, a lot of action, a ton of CGI, a bunch of drama and tragedy... But nobody had any specific plan, they just tried to stop Thanos, period. Planning is not for superheroes, come on, right? And instead of analysing forces posture and making at least an imitation of plan, they acted impulsively like a dispersed group of amateurs or even kids. Above all that they didn't even have a clue about what was gonna happen very soon.
The only meaningful move was Dr. Strange's decision to back off and let Thanos to win the battle - and that wasn't a result of long thinking through! Doctor just sat on his ass, spent a couple of seconds just to count possible outcomes and saying nothing waited until the very end. Coooooool!!! It's like they never heard of Thanos before and had no idea who he is and what he's capable of.
Again and again, I catch myself thinking that Disney doesn't count on adults - they make movies for youngsters who aren't supposed to think on what they see. The more special effects, running, riding, fighting, shooting and meaningless death of favorite characters (hoping that they're gonna revive in the next movie, of course), the better box office results are.
I'm disappointed with this comic circus. The first Avengers were almost a masterpiece (my respect to Joss Whedon). But this one is a total mess.
