Avengers: Infinity War

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Avengers:Infinity War is the culmination of several years of Marvel assembling earth's mightiest heroes. As such, the movie is founded on the MCU and moviegoers having not watched the preceding titles may struggle to keep pace with the plot and lack the levels of character attachment necessary to fully appreciate the experience. There are essentially 4 arcs that take place concurrently and begin to intertwine as the movie progresses. These subplots capture an amicable balance of wit and drama with exhilarating action scenes, the first of which I found particularly impressive. There are, however, two main criticisms that I have of the movie, each related to the plot (Disclaimer: I have not read the comics and am not familiar with the arc): firstly, there is a very inconsistent use of logic in both the heroes' decision-making and use of their powers. Secondly, the focus on Thanos to build a sense of what a powerful adversary he is was somewhat overdone (This could have easily been a Thanos-titled movie) and his brutal/merciful nature is more inconsistent rather than giving a sense of his inner turmoil. Each of these left me perplexed and frustrated after viewing the entire movie. An additional, personal criticism that I have is the MCU's new quest to make Tom Holland's Spider-man an over-zealous and non-intellectual Stark fanboy - I reduced my score for this movie by a point because I can't condone this. The movie's best feature, in my opinion, is its visuals. Having watched it in IMAX 3D, I can vouch for the fact that it is, indeed, a visual spectacle to behold. The acting is also of the highest order and engrosses the viewer, allowing some to overlook the faults I've mentioned (particularly while viewing) - and definitely making it a worthwhile to watch while it is screening in theater.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If Thanos is out of his mind, so are the minds of the screenwriters of this film. They try to make sense out of Thano’s mad “Kill Half” theory. They even tried to add some humanity to this psycho sociopath. He has half of the universe’s blood on his hands, but he also has a heart? What? This is the definition of insane. I guess the screenwriters went crazy after the Marvel executives said “you can kill anyone” in Infinity War. So they tried to find ways to torture the audience and kill as many main characters as they can. I felt like I was watching a horror movie and waiting for getting PTSD. The campy and melodramatic killings – boyfriend killing girlfriend, girlfriend killing boyfriend, and father killing daughter really threw me off. It’s very dramatic, and it works to make an emotional impact on the audience. But in my perspective, to execute characters in a deliberately rapid manner, while torturing the audience and making them mourn, it’s atrocious, cold-blooded, manipulative, and low-quality writing. There is more to bear than to enjoy when watching the movie.

Marvel just does not know when to stop making jokes. Making fun in Infinity War will only make people do not know how to feel happiness and sadness. I did laugh while they were having a bit fun. But it felt so wrong, we just lost somebody not long ago. The audience next to me even laughed while crying and looked ridiculous. I think Marvel had internal screenings but I am appalled by this apparently poor narrative design. I completely understand they do not want a serious tone throughout the running time, but changing the scene and adding a joke after ending a character’s life do not help ease the intense atmosphere. The lack of running time in Infinity War makes it very hectic, messy when progressing the story. Some leading roles were even made out to be like side characters. The Captain America team and the Black Panther team suffered from very short screen time. Except fighting the characters had no time for feelings, those who had the chance to share strong sentiments were Thor and Gamora. The audience had a glance of everything but left with much more questions and desire.

There is no point to discuss who got killed in Infinity War, because some characters with confirmed sequels got killed, which does not make sense. And viewers can immediately predict what will happen in the next film.

Infinity War is so awful that it is the worst in MCU. I do not appreciate its story design, character development and interactions, and its insensitivity to the audience’s emotions. A majority of the film tortures and kills many favorite superheroes of the fans – it’s not well-intentioned, and it’s not entertainment. I can’t see the point of this film. Well, the visuals are still the brighter side of this film – the cinematics featuring many beautiful sceneries and details, and the heroes featuring new tactics and moves. But they seem not worthy of overcompliments. What’s wrong with you, Marvel? It’s not fun when you treat the heroes like that!… Expand

Bruce Banners head looked like a SUPER bad photoshop where his head looked disembodied in the fat ironman suit. Stupid movie. The battle in Wakanda is just the battle from Star Wars Episode 1. I even yelled out "starting up da shield". The bad guys had tunneling machines to go under the shield yet choose to sacrifice hundreds of dog things needlessly into the shield. Dr. Strange could made a portal around Thanos' hand and cut the glove/arm right off him, villain beaten, OR rewind time since he's the master of it with his stone. Hulk turned into a MASSIVE WUSS. Guardians were bad joke after bad joke. I could just go on and on. Save your 8 bucks for a good movie and skip this one.… Expand

My biggest beef was that they did not follow the comics at all in terms of why Thanos invaded earth and wanted to take the Infinity stones- to impress death and they screwed that up with a lame theory of overpopulation. Also the beginning made zero sense no intro no structure whatsoever. Well it was better than Ultron at least. Also wtf was the Black Order so weak in the film? How come Dr. Strange was weak? He could have took Thanos arm off and teleported the glove away. Hopefully the next one is better written and less bad CGI.… Expand

It might be somewhat disengaging because so many of the heroes die. The whole reason Thanos wants to wipe half the universe is actually pretty dumb. Suppose you just randomly kill off half the world, what would it actually change for the future of the planet? A few generations later numbers would be back to where they were. The "problem" wouldn't have been "solved" at all. The concept for the movie is just dumb. Thanos is a powerful idiot, I'd hope he wouldn't come back, but more similar garbage is undoubtedly on the way.
Overall it's not a bad movie, but for me it was a pretty big let down. "The Avengers movie of the year!", undoubtedly true if it's the only one. "The Marvel movie of the year?" not so much unless you want to overlook the glaring problems this movie has. Too many heroes packed in there, with just not enough time for meaningful contributions. Not much more than "Oh and he's here too! Interesting eh? And oh well yeah he died. Feel sorry much?"
It's well made, can't blame the actors, but the story/script is a bit of a mess. Better than Ragnarok but I walked away from Black Panther with a far better feeling than I did from this one. Maybe worth a 7 on a really good day for the action and CGI, but I'm giving it a 6. No universal acclaim here, I'm sorry I let my son talk me into going to the theatre to see it.
Marvel should think longer about the story. They obviously know how to do action scenes, their story-writing division needs more time, and/or better people, to perfect their work, so they can make movies that are actually worth making and seeing. I'm certainly not going to go see Avengers 4 in the theatre, the whole Thanos storyarc has managed to make me not care if any of the Avengers live or die. Better to just move on and be done with it.… Expand

So it kind of ruins that whole ending when they've already announced sequels and the cast members to go along with them. So what was the point in killing all of them off when nearly all of them are coming back? It makes no sense and it kind of ruined the movie, which honestly was rather so-so.

There were a few funny bits with the Guardians, Dr Strange and Tony. I thought that the best storytelling parts involved Thor and Thanos was a much deeper villain than I thought. So it's not a total wash of a film but I still felt that it was nowhere near the epic film it should have been.… Expand

The narrative is relatively straightforward (the Avengers & co. must stop Thanos from acquiring all the Infinity Stones) and never once does the film seem to drag, a miracle given the number of characters involved. I have two main criticisms of the film: first, I found many characters to be underutilized (Black Panther, Steve Rodgers, Bruce Banner, among others), and second, I thought the entire subplot of Thor crafting his new weapon to defeat Thanos to be trite and silly (giant Peter Dinklage did not help). I was not a fan of some of the strange tonal shifts throughout the film. However, despite its flaws, IW is a very entertaining movie that pretty much any fan of the superhero genre will enjoy. It relies heavily on its audience having seen the previous Marvel films, so if you're new to the Marvel scene, I'd suggest watching the back catalogue first before diving in.… Expand

This is literally the best comic book movie ever made. The amount of emotions going through me for 3 hours was insane!! This is not a standalone film but a culmination of 10 years of growing up with these characters where every character has a certain liking and depth to them that the viewer holds before they appear in the movie. In order to appreciate this movie to it's fullest I have to say you must have watched all 18 that have come before. Only then can you walk out of the theatre as satisfied as I've felt.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Easily the best of the Avenger films, took risks and had alot of surprises. I found it as a whole to be better than Black Panther but falls short of Thor Ragnarok. With that being said, Thanos is a pure force of biblical proportion and he easily carries the movie just based on his screen presence. This film is not without its issues, firstly theres a ton of exposition, mostly for those who probably hadn't seen all of the Marvel movies. There are alot of characters in this film, alot of things going on and it's easy to find yourself lost by the storylines and subplots as they weave together. Some of the characters, most notably Thor and Peter Quill lack proper development from previous movies as they gain powers from the movies but proceed not to use them. The biggest problem I have with the movie involves late on the movie where there are some opportunities to stop Thanos, but because of stupidity and selfishness of certain characters they fail which results in the deaths of millions. It's a good movie nonetheless and it's definitely worth seeing if youre a fan of the Marvel movies.… Expand

Le film reprend méticuleusement chaqueOn ne va pas tourner autour du pot, ce troisième volet de la saga Avengers est une… tuerie ! Et je ne mâche pas mes mots, la formule du premier opus est reconduite avec un respect total du MCU. Le film reprend méticuleusement chaque personnage à l’exception d’Ant-Man et Hawkeye.

Le film prend place exactement là où c’était terminé Thor: Ragnarok. Souvenez-vous que lors de la scène post-générique Loki et son frère se retrouvait dans l’espace face au vaisseau de Thanos. Tel est le point de départ du film. Nous en resterons là pour l’histoire pour ne pas vous spoiler tant celle-ci est riche et pleine de rebondissements. #ThanosDemandsYourSilence (ne lisez pas la conclusion)

Marvel Studios avait promis un film épique, promesse tenue. Les différents univers Marvel se marient à merveille que ce soit Doctor Strange, Les Gardiens de la Galaxie ou encore Black Panther. Les frères Russo avaient annoncés que le film aurait droit à une bataille gigantesque, celle-ci est vraiment énorme et ferait passer la bataille de New York du premier Avengers pour une simple introduction. Les différentes bande-annonces annonçaient aussi un sort funeste pour certains de nos héros préférés, ce qui est le cas bien évidemment et dans certains cas assez surprenant. Quelques nouveaux personnages feront leur apparition dont certains membres de l’ordre noir Black Dwarf, Corvus Glaive, Proxima Midnight ou encore le très cheaté Ebony Maw.

La réalisation est assez surprenante et la photographie est magnifique en sachant que le long-métrage nous fera voyager dans différentes continents et à travers toute la galaxie. Les équipes d’ILM ont fait un travail remarquable avec des CGI de toute beauté. Côté soundtrack, on voit le retour du compositeur du premier opus, le grand Alan Silvestri, qui avait d’ailleurs officié sur Captain America: The First Avenger et plus récemment pour Ready Player One.

Pour conclure, Avengers: Infinity War est la claque que l’on attendait avec impatience. Ce fameux film dont on avait peur d’être déçu à l’instar du second opus. Les frères Russo ont réussi le pari de réunir autant de super-héros à l’écran sans que cela ne devienne un bazar indéfinissable. Le film est plus obscur que d’habitude et joue avec les sentiments des spectateurs ce qui peut choquer les plus **** notamment avec un antagoniste avec autant de prestance et de… réussite. Un nouvel essai transformé pour Marvel Studios et Disney qui offrent aux fans un des films de super les plus épiques de ces dernières années pour ne pas dire le meilleur… un chef d’oeuvre !… Expand

Not spectacular, and it feels a little overlong, but Brolin's performance as Thanos is impeccable, as are most of the performances from the cast. The CGI is a little spotty in places, but that's just nitpicking. Very good film.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was going into Infinity War with high expectations, every commercial and trailer marketed this movie as the 'end game', Dr Strange even said it himself, and this movie delivered big time. Although my expectations were high for this movie, Infinity War beat those expectations by miles. The whole movie was one crazy scene after another, so much action, a little comedy, and in the end, sadness.

Avengers: Infinity War showed all of Marvel's heroes true colours and handled them all together so well. All the chaotic and calm scenes were so great and none felt useless or out of place. People complained about the movies long 2 & 1/2 hour runtime, but in my case, that wasn't enough. I could've watched Infinity War for hours because I know it would've been handled just as well. Avengers: Infinity War is an absolute cinematic masterpiece, which should go down in history, bloody hell, teach it in media and drama classes in schools (might be a little more interesting than Shakespeare). It was one of the best, if not THE BEST, superhero movie of all time.… Expand

Standard Marvel level, which makes this a good popcorn movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To be sure, those craving an indulgence of the senses will not be disappointed. This film is nothing if not action-packed and visually stunning—and there are nearly 3 hours of it! I do not envy the screenwriters' and directors' task of cramming nearly all known MCU characters into 1 movie and trying to work out their character arcs, abilities and personalities into a conceivable conglomeration of backstory motivations and plot pushers.

Still, I came away from this film feeling strangely dissatisfied. Long after the dust settled and I had time to sort through my initial shock, that wrinkle-your-nose, furl-your-eyebrow kind of feeling surfaced any time the film was mentioned. Absolutely I was not okay with the outcomes of some of my favorite MCU characters—but a good film is a film that moves you, outrage included. IW is a reasonably dark film with little to no redemption—but even that is fine by me as long as it's a film that sweeps me along with it, that parallels a part of my humanity, too. Those weren't my beef with this movie.

No, what I found supremely lacking was, unfortunately, the most central part of this film: the development of Thanos' character. Nothing about the purple titan was compelling—the inanity of his universal genocide, the illogicality of his fighting methods, the randomness of his brutality. Very little about him resonated with anything I know to be true of human (or titan) behavior. It seems the filmmakers sacrificed consistency for showmanship. Rather than having his behavior stem from something conceivable within his psyche, they approached it the other way round, using the means to justify the ends. Their end game was to create a villain unbelievably powerful and idealogically-fueled—an opponent hitherto unmet by our MCU heroes—but, in so doing, they invariably released a monster of their own creation. Nothing they could contrive would satisfy all the physical and metaphysical laws now broken and exploited by MCU superheroes. Their solution was to patch Thanos up with a thin backstory and handle all of his encounters with superpower-imbued opponents circumstantially.

To their credit, the filmmakers did attempt to give Thanos some depth, but the results were doubtful at best. Take his relationship with Gamora, for instance. In order to give the Soul Stone scene some emotional juice, precious screentime had to be devoted to flashbacks between Thanos and young Gamora. Unfortunately, probably owing to the fact that Thanos was portrayed as a cold, heartless tyrant in previous films, their relationship seems utterly surface—and the scene that should have borne much pathos becomes cringeworthy and offputting. They tried to flesh out Thanos' complex psychology, but, in the end, we're left with a confusing amalgamation of benevolence, madness, warmongering, pacifism, mania, fanaticism—and no good reason for any one of those things.

Throw a thinly-conceived, thickly-plot-armored villain into a mix of powerful superheroes and you get a series of incredulous battle scenes, each more aback-taking than the last, and each serving a clearer and clearer purpose: to advance the shallow plot and build up Thanos as the baddest guy ever. It's like watching your Superbowl favorite get shutout by a European rugby team—at their own game. Practically unbelievable.

The film wasn't a failure, of course. But as the consummation (part 1) of a decade of MCU buildup, it was a letdown. Most MCU films (barring the last two or three, perhaps) have done an exceptional job with character development. I was expecting much more from this "magnum opus."

Here's to a much better part 2.… Expand

Essentially a part one ofElegantly constructed and surprisingly well balanced considering its size but Infinity War is not just one of the best comic book movies ever made, it's also a showcase for what blockbuster film making should be. Essentially a part one of two, this is really about its villain; a brilliantly realized CGI behemoth in the form of Josh Brolin's Thanos. The writers don't just show us just how powerful he is, they also take the time to explore his motivation and the lengths he is prepared to go to in order to achieve them. Marvel have really struggled to deliver great villains but they deliver here with a villain that has character, has defined abilities and feels like a genuine threat. In fact this is really what makes Infinity War stand out from other films like this, this time it feels like there are real stakes. The heroes for the most part have already been positioned from previous entries and here the benefit of years of character of building pays off without the need for much exposition to get things going. You can argue that the likes of Captain America, Black Widow and Black Panther get less to do but considering how large this film is, there were always going to be some sacrifices even if the over arching stories still feel a part of things and not quite resolved. However this film allows characters such as Vision, Wanda, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man and the Guardians of the Galaxy to really get their moment within a large ensemble movie and in spite of the Part 1 tag I mentioned earlier, Infinity War for the most part is its own satisfying beast. After Age of Ultron, it felt that there was a risk of another Avengers movie not quite managing to have the same impact as the first but Infinity War is something completely different and has made the formula feel fresh again. Newer heroes are introduced successfully and enjoy great chemistry with older characters who keep adapting to make themselves relevant and as fun as ever. But what ultimately makes this memorable is its bold storytelling decisions and well judged film making that allows all the right dramatic and comedic punches to land. Plus it has an ending that'll be talked about for years to come. A superhero classic.… Expand

I love how the movie goes nonstop, but the way the initial slaughter is handled cheapens the death of some of the MCU's more memorable side-characters. These moments are meant to establish Thanos as the baddest dude in the galaxy right off the bat, but we already knew that going into the movie. A brief bit of buildup would have gone a long way as the beginning of the film just feels like shock value.

Things get better from there though. I love how Marvel brought together all these moving pieces from their catalog of films without sacrificing the unique feeling each of them has in their own standalone entries. Almost every hero they have made it into the movie. They're not all onscreen at once. Instead Infinity War splits them up in several different teams of cross-overs that effectively make the fight feel so incredibly large. It really sells the desperation inherent to the conflict at hand when everybody is going to such great lengths of finding their own ways to combat Thanos from so many different angles. You get a pretty nice picture of just how big the MCU currently is.

The action is phenomenal. The battles are huge and intense. Even the henchmen of Thanos provide a nice challenge for these veteran superheroes. As cool as it is to see the big bad's help prove to be a threat as well, it's a little disappointing that they are involved in so much of what's going on. With Thanos off collecting the last of the infinity stones, these guys (and gal) are who The Avengers spend most of their time fighting. These are some knock down, drag out fights that are cool to watch, but these are also some lame side-villains. They're so faceless that the movie itself only bothers to tell us one of their names.

As for Thanos himself the big question is whether or not he fixes Marvel's villain problem. The answer is only partially. For the first time in the MCU we are given a villain that proves to be a real danger to these characters. There are actual stakes this time around and we know that some of these heroes might never come back. This imbues the movie with a sense of tension no superhero film has ever had before. Infinity War tries to make Thanos deeper than any of the foes before him as well. That's where the disappointment sets in. The scenes where they try to show him as a more conflicted villain with an emotional center fall flat as this is the first time we've ever really spent time with him. His socioeconomic motives are interesting, but we still aren't able to feel his motivations on a personal level. So really what makes him so memorable isn't what's going on in his head or heart. It's literally just that he's a powerhouse who spills the blood of those we've come to care about. In the end is he one of the better Marvel villains? Most definitely. The best? Not at all.

That long teased Infinity War has finally begun and is remarkable due to how huge it is. This might just be the most ambitious thing to ever hit the big-screen in terms of scope. The way it juggles all these different characters and places them all onscreen in one film while keeping their distinctive qualities intact is it's greatest achievement. The characters we love have finally come face to face with an antagonist that can and does do some real damage to their lives and universe. While Thanos is ultimately kind of bland it's nice to know that he can at least shake things up in surprising ways that keep us on our toes and have us dying to know what is coming next for the MCU. The ending is the most bold thing Marvel has done with their cinematic universe thus far. It's only slightly cheapened by the fact that we know things will likely be reversed in the way we expect, but until then things are looking pretty bleak for the world's mightiest heroes. This is a must watch for anyone who has ever followed the stories up to this point. There are just some issues that have kept it from reaching it's fullest potential.… Expand

Highly entertaining and the most amazing badguy, with whom you can completely empathise . His whole reason for being, his thought processes, his very existence distilled down into a believable, driven character. You could see his side of the argument, and of course, you could see why our heroes had to fight against him. Wonderful special effects, a compelling story, and a fiendishly dark ending. Some people may not understand the ending or just take it for what it was. But one thing you should note...this was part 1 of a 2 film arc.… Expand

The story was good. The humour was also working thanks to the Guardian of Galaxy characters and thanks to the adult setting of the movie (so for example Tony Starks didnt annoy us with his arrogance and Spider Man hadnt much scene time with his teenie problems). The villain is much more interesting than in most other Marvell movies.
The only thing, that I didnt like was the political correctness.… Expand

Quite funny and action-fulled movie. The story is interesting, not perfect, but it's still convincing and with emotional moments as film's final. Perhaps the best superhero movie of 2018.

A perfect blend of multiple Marvel characters. Great partnerships and unlikely groups work so well together with a great villain.

This movie depends on the audience having kept up with the previous MCU movies. Movie-goers who have not done so will find the movie confusing and shallow as the movie does not provide any background for any character with the exception of the villain. It is also pretty-much non-stop action from beginning to end which some movie-goers may find nauseating (although I do wonder why these people bother to watch any MCU films in that case). The film does have quite a bit of humor inter-spaced with the non-stop action. That being said, some of the plot could have been more robust in the earlier part of the film, but then again you're watching a super-hero movie. The plot isn't supposed to withstand too much scrutiny.… Expand
