Avengers Infinity War: A Review

Avengers Infinity War, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo is a ten-year phenomenon in the making. April 27, 2018 was the last day of the most anticipated wait this year.
Imagine a 11-year-old boy playing with all his marvel -branded action figures, then smashing them all together. Essentially, this is what was thrusted on the big screen, which by the way, ushered in $284,467,000 world-wide on the first day. The movie is a payoff from beginning to end.
When Nick Fury (Samuel Jackson) enlightened Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) in Iron Man 3 saying, “You think you’re the only superhero in the world? Mr. Stark, you’ve become part of a bigger universe. You just don’t know it yet,” this is what he meant.
Avengers Infinity War was modeled primarily from The Infinity Gauntlet comic book produced by Marvel Studios. It follows the villain Titan Thanos on his quest to find six infinity stones which are the most powerful entities in the universe.
The movie was the first Marvel production with such a massive amount of dominant characters on one screen, the result was astonishing.
The movie trails you on 160 minutes of humor, death, action, love, and character development.
For the comic book fans that have been anxiously waiting, the end result created appreciation and praise.
“It’s more than just a movie, I’ve grown with these characters from the comic books to the decade of set up,” pleaded former Southern University student, Daniel Joiner.
The greatest feat for this movie ironically isn’t the movie itself. It is the buildup. Every scene in every movie leading to this had a purpose. The plot twist and deaths meant that much more because an established relationship was secured. These weren’t one dimensional characters. They made us laugh, hurt, and cry in multiple movies. The same character that gave you comic relief in one film will make you hate them in Infinity War. This is what makes a movie great.
Producer, Kevin Feige, and the Russo brothers created this film and made sure to adhere to every small detail.
So much information was given that it was overwhelming. Baton Rouge local, Assad Semmes, exclaimed, “It was too much. I wasn’t ready!”
Even regular fans who knew what was “supposed” to happen couldn’t believe the risky steps this movie took. The source material, The Infinity Gauntlet comic book, couldn’t prepare you for the events in Avengers Infinity War.
Critic Matt Maytum praised the movie declaring “[…] fan expectations that have snowballed during 10 years of the MCU – and doing so with wit, pace, and surprises aplenty – Infinity War deserves a huge, bejeweled high-five.”
Comic lovers and a Marvel fan enthusiasts commend the movie for the grand scale story arch and dedication. The movie will not upset and will leave one thirsting for Avengers Four, which is part two to this movie set to be released May 3, 2019.
