Here is a to the point movie review of Avengers: Infinity Wars

BEFORE I TELL YOU WHAT I HATED ABOUT THE MOVIE…..

What I loved about this movie

• The movie felt more like Star Wars + Lord of the Rings!
• The Editing was flawless throughout the movie
• The chemistry between Rocket Racoon & Thor on one hand & Ironman & Starlord,
• The balance between all characters & the appropriate screen time that everyone shared.
• The dialogue & argument between Starlord & Thor
• The dialogue & argument between Starlord & Ironman
• Vision & Hulk — who were supposed to be the most powerful — prove to be the weakest in this movie
• Thor gets a new weapon — the Stormbreaker courtesy Groot & Eitri which can apparently kill Thanos
• The manner in which Thanos rewinds time to get the stone from Vision
• Stan Lee makes his usual cameo appearance in the film

Characters who die in this movie:

• Loki (within the first few minutes in a really bad manner)
• Heimdell
• Dr. Strange
• Vision
• Wanda Maximoff
• Spiderman
• Black Panther
• Bucky Barnes
• Gamora
• Groot
• Drax the Destroyer
• Mantis
• Sam Wilson
• Night Fury
• Maria Hill

Unexpected bits in the movie

• Like I stated before, many of the top Marvel Characters die
• Hulk actually gets bashed up by Thanos and is scared to fight! Can you believe this!!!
• The manner in which Thanos kills Loki & Gamora was a sight to behold!
• Red Skull makes a surprising cameo

The amazing battle scenes which you must watch again and again and again…..

• Thanos versus Thor & Asgardian ship
• Vision & Wanda Maximoff fight against Proxima Midnight & Corvus Glaive
• Ironman, Strange, Wong, Spiderman versus Ebony Maw & Cull Obsidion
• Iron-Man, Dr. Strange, Spiderman fight against Star Lord, Drax, Racoon & Mantis
• The Main Battle on Wakanda versus the battle with Thanos versus Ironman, Strange, Spiderman, Drax & Mantis

Most amazing bit about this movie:

• The character of Thanos & how it was the main part of the movie
• The manner in which Ironman, Spiderman, Mantis, Dr. Strange, Starlord & Drax nearly defeat Thanos

So now….what I HATED or DISLIKED ABOUT THIS MOVIE….

What I felt was stupid

• Bruce Banner overacting & also acting stupid
• Hulk acting like a child and refusing to fight or come out of Banner
• Bruce Banner in Hulk Buster
• Dr. Strange surrenders the time stone to Thanos in exchange for Stark’s life.
• The silly humor when Starlord tried to kill Gomora & when Gomora tried to kill herself — turning the weapon into bubbles
• Spiderman’s suit was bit cartoonish.
• Ironman’s suit was over the top silly & cartoonish
• Pepper Potts, The Collector, War Machine, Wong & Black Widow didn’t do anything worthwhile or important in this movie
• Loki & Heimdall die too soon. At least Loki had something worthwhile. But Heimdall apart from sending the Hulk back to earth — didn’t do anything much.
• Most of the cast who acted in Black Panther were all extras in the movie

My thoughts about what I didn’t like or what I had mixed feelings about…

• This movie sets the scene for part 2
• I was a bit disappointed with the manner Hulk was portrayed
• There is a danger of having all the characters being portrayed on screen by just 2 directors
• If you haven’t watched the previous Marvel movies — you will not understand this movie
• The movie has more action than you can ask for. For a normal first time viewer — it wouldn’t make sense but for a hardcore Marvel fan — each and every fight sequence has meaning.

Overall Thoughts

• However, having said that A very powerfully directed movie
• Great dialogues
• Apt Humor
• Really dark at theme
• Brilliant transition from one war to another from one scene to another
• Fantastic editing
• Beautiful choreographed action
• The biggest shocker was that those heroes we assumed were invinsible were actually the weakest in this movie
• Chris Pratt fat
• Thanos is the greatest character in this movie with strong value system
• Transition is impeccable
• Peter Dinklage is a giant in this movie
• The war scene was truly amazing & breathtaking
• Battle sequence perfect
• Tons of action
• Ending was its absolute best. It was so well done — now the entire world will be waiting to see part 2!
