Avengers: Endgame

It is this part of the story, the human side, to narrow it down to our marginal planet, that holds the movie together for its three-hour run time.

This is a feat of engineering... I felt a sense of catharsis finishing it.

It would be nearly unfathomable to have spent more than 20 preceding films with these characters and not feel anything at the end of the sometimes tedious, mostly satisfying Avengers: Endgame.

What you will be getting when you walk into an inevitably overstuffed movie theater is something singular that reflects our age in a way that none of the MCU films that preceded it have-indeed, very few Hollywood spectacles ever have.

The 3-hour culmination of 22 chapters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is worth going back in time and watching again.

The only complaint about Avengers: Endgame is that it raises the bar so high that there may well never be a superhero movie to match it.

So much of the art form is about storytelling, and bringing so many side stories and characters to a satisfying conclusion is tough, and the film blended a (rather) unpredictable plot with emotional character beats deftly...

Avengers: Endgame is everything Marvel fans could want and more. It will be interesting to see how the MCU moves into the future after the events in the film, but woe be upon anyone who doubts their ability to adapt and succeed mightily.

I found Avengers: Endgame wonderfully satisfying.

There are [Marvel] movies that have been just as entertaining and a lot smarter than this one.
