jacey | Movie of the Week: Avengers Endgame

Hmm, how to review this without spoilers...

First of all - I loved it. At a bladder-busting three hours and one minute long there's so much happening that it certainly bears a second visit to the cinema.

It picks up right where Infinity War finished and then skips five years. Everyone, including the surviving Avengers are still deeply affected, so... it moves forward from there.

What I can say is that characters who were notably absent from Infinity War (such as Hawkeye and Captain Marvel) feature more strongly in this (though maybe Capt. Marvel is a little under-used). Iron Man and Captain America are still in the lead. There's a very funny turn by Chris Hemsworth as Thor in very different mode to the way we're used to seeing him.

Are we going to get every character back who was killed in Infinity War? You'll have to watch to find out. But I think it does a great job of wrapping up this raft of marvel Movies, while leaving room for the next generation. All our favourite characters get a satisfactory ending to their own individual story arcs.

Yes I am going to see it again.
