Infinity War was made with care and much thought went into it's production and this showed. The film itself takes place only moments from the Ragnarok end credit scene. Just like we were promised,Thanos showed just how strong he was within the first five minutes of the film.
I was very impressed with how it balanced humour and seriousness. Some moments were a bit "too funny" but those moments are from characters who are known to be funny generally. I didn't like Thor Ragnarok because I felt like it changed Thor's character but this film brings him back to his Good Old Awesome self and all the consequences from Ragnarok that weren't mentioned were heavily referenced here which proved that Feige and the Russos's Taika messed things up(yes I said it).
The story line was simple and worked well for the most part and all the characters meeting made sense and their interactions were very organic but that wasn't the best part of infinity war. The best part of infinity war was the purple titan himself,THANOS!!!!!!.
I started a new paragraph for just Thanos so you should know what that means right?. Thanos was phenomenal,incredible,amazing,crazy, strong,powerful and intelligent and guess the best part,his story was empathetic and you could feel all his emotions. He wasn't just a BIG bad,he was a big bad with layers and emotions. If I go further and make a post about spoilers, it'll negate a couple of things I said here because like I mentioned,I won't mention flaws on this post.
Thanos is the main star of this film,every scene with him is purposeful and shows you just a little more about the "mad titan" which makes you go from "I hate this guy" to "maybe I don't completely hate him". Thanos is compelling and carries this gigantic presence in every scene he's in and it's not short of amazing. They are certain decisions he makes that truly define the character that he is and cements him as one of the greatest villains in superhero movie history.
The Avengers and Guardians in this film all had their moments but a lot of them were left out from doing anything lasting. Most of the people I expected to see do crazy things didn't and a lot were absent for the major things. The Guardians,Thor,Spider-Man,Iron Man and Doctor Strange are definitely this film's highlight characters for me(Thor Especially) they did great and their interactions where the most enjoyable.
Stakes were definitely in this film,scary things happened. I personally feel like the deaths that happened half way through this film than the deaths that happened towards the end although Twitter MCU fans disagree. Who knows?,why don't you guys share your own opinions.
This film was fast but fast enough to carry you along with it,only a few moments felt drawn out and some characters felt greatly underpowered and some felt overpowered. Certain new characters were too over the top and a familiar face appears that fans have been wanting to see for a long time.
In conclusion,as a DC fan I enjoyed this greatly...it didn't have the normal repetitive formula,it tried to be different and it was! If more marvel films roll out like this I'll become a massive fan of their work. They did a great job,solid 9 for just how they managed to put everything together and 7.5 for overall due to other factors that I will talk about in a couple of days(a week at most). Did you like this review?
