Avengers Infinity War - Movie Review (Spoiler Free). Avengers Infinity War is the 19th installment of into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and this is the movie that has been 10 years in the making.
Infinity War stars pretty much every character in the MCU and it follows the Mad Titan, Thanos, who embarks on a journey to collect all of the Infinity Stones and in order to bring balance to the universe and to wipe out half of the population.
We vividly remember going to see Iron Man (2008) and it has been pleasure to see these characters and movies grow as well as develop. It is quite the feat what Marvel was able to accomplish with this film. We think this is the movie that has not been on the scale really in films history.
At this point, Marvel is the biggest television show of all time. Each installment is another episode in the series and you have films like these massive events.

What the Russo brothers were able to pull off with this movie is remarkable. Infinity War is truly epic proportions. And even after 10 years of anticipation, we have to say this film did not disappoint at all.
Avengers Infinity War or some people would like to say 'Avengers 3' is fantastic comic book movie. One of the most important elements for this film to work would be the main villain, Thanos. The biggest criticism of the franchise is their lack of compelling antagonists.
With Infinity War, from scene one, we were terrified of Thanos. To have a villain this opposing we thought it is a rare feat to reach this level of intimidation. When you see Thanos, you see an immediate fear that last throughout the entire movie.
Keep it in mind, this is two and a half hour movie. And we are being 100% serious, leaving this film, we were physically exhausted.
We would not feel the way that we feel about these characters and feel legitimately worried if something happens to them. The amount of emotional resonance that this film has.
Avengers Infinity War does such a great job at pinning specific characters together and having them go on this journey together. Seeing them together for the first time like the rest of the Guardians of The Galaxy with the original Avengers.
But unfortunately it brings to our first issue that we have with this film. And that is how it trats one character in particular in the journey that they go on. And that is Thor. We are not gonna go into details to avoid spoiler.
Something that is clear this movie has done well is the action. It is on a massive scale. It shows these characters in a epic battle that we have not seen it in the franchise yet.
