'Avengers: Infinity War' Review

If you're not up to speed, this is the movie with all the Avengers in it. Like, all the Avengers. Every. Single. One. Of. Them. And it was glorious. Here are some of the highlights of why you need to see this movie today! **There may or may not be spoilers so beware!

Avengers Galore

Marvel incorporated all of the Avengers, Guardians, and powerful individuals to this movie and they did a wonderful job. If you didn't watch the past couple of movies Marvel has put out then you might be a little lost. It starts off almost immediately where Thor left off. Then we see a lot of intermixing with the characters from different movies. They did a great job at this because they were able to connect these characters from each different movie in the areas that they were in. So when they were in space they connected Thor and the guardians. On Earth they connected Bruce, Stark, Parker, and Doctor Strange. All the other characters following suit. But the way they fought together was inspiring. It was amazing to watch. The only person who wasn't in it was Hawk-eye, but I'm pretty sure they said he was doing something with his family. My husband asked me questions in the beginning...

Peter Dinklage

I won't say much about him because I was shocked he was in this movie even though I heard somethings, but he was fantastic in this movie. His character was probably the greatest one. Love him.

VFX

These movies have been going more and more into the visual effects realm. There are so many visual effects, but it's honestly hard to tell what's real anymore. It all looked so real and made me think that this could actually happen. Obviously not, but at the same time, it was all so life like. This might win an award for that area. The costumes and sets were also so beautiful and made the movie so incredibly real and made me want to be an avenger.

The Storyline...

Every single Marvel movie has literally led us to this point. It is still going though, which is fantastic! All the characters have created a backstory and created relationships with one another and combining them all into one feature-length film (2 hours and 40 minutes) would seem like a bad clash, but Marvel killed it and made it work. The directors guided and took the characters who have already made themselves into "people" we have come to love to "people" we have come to love more and are waiting to see what happens next and where Marvel will take us.

Thanos

This villain was more formidable than most. He did not mourn for his fallen family nor did he really show to us that he cared for when he committed genocide against many planets. He is trying to attain one goal, to retrieve all the infinity stones and destroy half the universe's inhabitants so it can flourish. Will that work? Will his genocide of the universe create a more flourishing universe? I don't know... And we will probably find out the next movie if his plans are what the remaining Avengers want.

So, what's next?

Captain Marvel was called by Nick Fury at the end of the credits. People started to disappear and Fury paged Captain Marvel until his own demise. Will the next movie Marvel brings out be an introductory story to this character or will it be how she saves the Earth and kills Thanos?

I didn't say a lot of spoilers, and I didn't go into much detail and I will probably put out another article more in depth later, but watch this movie and you will be almost as speechless as I was! Maybe even more.

I definitely give this movie a 9/10. The reason for the 9 is that the ending made me cry. And I did not want that ending! What the heck!
