The finale is essentially the last hour of the film. The writing, producing, special effects, and frankly all the teams involved deserve huge kudos.

Josh Brolin does a great job making him a brutal and mildly sympathetic villain.Īnd the number of locations they bring us to in all of its (4K HDR) glory is just insane: Earth (New York, Wakanda, etc.), Knowhere (Reality Stone), Vormir (Soul Stone), Zen-Whobiri (Gamora's home planet), Titan (Thanos' home planet), and Nidavellir (dwarven 'smith' planet).ġ00% of the credit can't be given to the Russo's. Thanos is probably the best villain in the MCU, toppling Loki. All the personalities from their respective films are the same (Drax is still hilarious: 'Die blanket of death!' after getting smothered by Doctor Strange's cape).

This doesn't include the excellent supporting characters of Wong, Heimdall, Okoye, Shuri, M'Baku, Eitiri, and Maria Hill.Įvery scene that brings these characters together, especially those that haven't met each other before (Iron Man and Doctor Strange, Thor and Star Lord, etc.), or those that haven't seen each other in a while (Captain America and Winter Soldier), gave me goosebumps. They did what the first Avengers movie did but with 21 of the main heroes which includes Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Black Widow, Hulk, Vision, Scarlet Witch, War Machine, Falcon, Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Gamora, Drax, Mantis, Nebula, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Winter Soldier, Black Panther, and Nick Fury. What the Russo brothers were able to achieve in Infinity War is frankly astounding. The first Avengers movie impressed me mostly because of the fantastic job Joss Whedon (🤮 ) did in bringing six larger than life characters together with the requisite tension and witty dialogue, while delivering non-stop action.

Finally! After binging the previous 18, I've reached what are indisputably the best of the Avengers movies.Īnd why are these last Avengers movies so great? Because they took the time to build the characters and worlds they inhabit over 10 years and 18 … freaking … movies.
