Considered the greatest superhero crossover event in cinematic history, the mad Titan Thanos finally makes his much heralded arrival into the Marvel Universe.
Thanos has a theory that over-population of the universe will result in the destruction of all life in the cosmos. He's tried in the past to wipe out 50% of the population of all inhabited planets, but he and his army of murderers are getting the job fast enough. Thus, in order to get the job done quicker, Thanos sets his sights on acquiring all six of the Infinity stones.
Thanos already has two of the stones, making him the most powerful being ever. Now it's up to the combined forces of Avengers, Guadians of the Galaxy, a Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and Wakanda's finest to stop the villain from using his specially made gauntlet to it's fullest potential and destroying half of all life in existence with a mere snap of his fingers.
I'm not going any further with the synopsis of the film. It's too early in the movie's release and people are having fits about spoilers. But I don't know what's worst- those who want a complete media blackout of info about Infinity War or the reactions of those who have seen the film.
Apparently, there's been episodes of mass crying fits and need for comfort and consolation. Some people have taken to Twitter claiming to have become severely depressed from watching the movie. I was not one of those people. Though I will say that I am shocked that Disney actually let Marvel pull off what they did.
Avengers: Infinity War is both superior and grossly lacking to the previous Marvel Cinematic entry Black Panther. In terms of a story with compelling drama, brains, and passion, then Black Panther is the victor. But as both a special effects marvel and laugh riot, then Infinity War wins. It also has a lot of surprises, but you'll have to watch it for yourself to catch them all. But again, I don't want to spoil anything.
A fun 2.5 hours of superhero fighting and feuding. Not the greatest Marvel movie ever made but at least it ain't no Thor: Dark World either.
Worth Consuming!
Rating: 8 out of 10 stars.
