Avengers: Infinity War is definetly a movie for fans. With little to no introduction or backstory, we are thrown into a non-stop adventure with an ensemble cast with over twenty already known characters.
Combining the styles cemented by previous directors (like James Gunn for the guardians and Ryan Coogler for Black Panther), we are shown the beginning of what has been in the works for almost ten years.
Definetly, we as fans, all have a favorite movie of the MCU. We have connected and maybe sometimes we have cried while watching one of those. And that is exactly why Infinity War works, because of you and me.
The incredible action and the fleshing of a great villain, make it a good movie, but its the goobyes and the banter with characters that have not met amongst themselves before is what makes it great for a fan.
I do not think its the best MCU movie we have had to date, but it works on the weak links Marvel has always had: no stakes and bad villains. Joe and Anthony Russo show us that Winter Soldier was not a one time trick, but it showed us they know how to push our buttons and when, they know to surprise us, make us laugh and cry.
And most of all, they know to give us hope.
Are you planning on seeing it? I hope you guys liked this sort of non-spoilery review, I really enjoyed the movie and its definetly the first of its kind (I mean, this is movie number what of the MCU?). Stay after all the credits (because those hundreds of CGI artists deserve it) and watch that last post-credits scene, after all, it would not be marvel if it didnt have one.
