Avengers: Infinity War movie review – This film can be easily termed as the best one in the Marvel Cinematic Universe

A lot was at stake with Anthony Russo and Joe Russo directed "most ambitious crossover event in the history." Did they live up to the universe of an expectation of these fans? Here is what I think.

Avengers: Infinity War is not just a movie. The event has been 10 years and 18 films in the making. Fans have spent 38 hours watching all the movies before this. And then countless amount of time re-watching, dissecting and contemplating all of these movies – and that too, happily. It is an investment of time and affection over the span of 10 years. Moreover, these are not just nerdy fantasies. These movies are hope. These movies are an escape. For many bullied kids in schools and colleges, they help them find a hero in the most unlikely manner. For every lonely nerd, these movies are the birthday wish that they hope was real. These superhero movies, and the comics from where they draw inspiration, are the first time many felt a blast of emotions that they didn’t know exist. These movies are no less than first love. So, a lot was at stake with Anthony Russo and Joe Russo directed “most ambitious crossover event in the history.” Did they live up to the universe of an expectation of these fans? Here is what I think…

What’s it about

This movie is a must-watch. Avengers: Infinity War gets silly when it tries to pack humour at places where you feel like crying your heart out. It gets unimaginably passionate when it brings our mighty heroes and the vicious villain face-to-face. And goes without saying that it crushes your heart by the time it ends. As I was saying in the opening…Avengers: Infinity War is passionate, silly, and heartbreaking – just like first love!
