SPOILER FREE - Avengers: Infinity War - Film Review

Infinitython Conclusion

 THIS REVIEW IS COMPLETELY SPOILER FREE!

 Avengers: Infinity War is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and stars everybody.

Plot
Now that Earth has put its mark on the universe through the Avengers, all superheroes, including ones from other parts of the Galaxy, need to join forces to stop the powerful Thanos from taking all the infinity stones and destroying the universe one planet at a time.

Review
This is going to be a short review, there's not much I can say without spoiling it.

Well this was something. I loved the movie, it's a blast, but it's not quite my favorite, it's in the top 5 though but I can't really go into why.

Without spoiling, the movie never looks like this but they're all three separate stories set at the same time, there's some characters on Titan, some characters in space, and some on Earth.

The characters are really good in here, but again I can't really say much about them.

I now want to talk as non-spoilery as I can about Thanos. I think Josh Brolin did a really good job, Thanos looks pretty realistic for someone who looks like a giant grape, he looks a lot better than he did in his other MCU appearances. Thanos is definitely one of the best villains the MCU has had in my opinion and I can't wait to see Josh Brolin as Cable in Deadpool 2 later this month.

This is also the longest movie in the MCU so far as it's over two and a half hours. For something with that runtime, I didn't feel bored. Last time I could really remember thinking that in the theater was when I saw Blade Runner 2049. I actually think this is a good thing and the Russos made this runtime work, well technically Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely did because they were the screenwriters.

This is what the past 10 years have been building up too and did it live up to the hype? Yeah I think so.

Overall, Avengers: Infinity War is a pretty great entry in my opinion.

Avengers: Infinity War gets a 9.5/10. Wasn't quite the 10/10 I was hoping for but it was good enough.

Sorry this was so short but there's not much I can say without spoiling it. Come back later for a spoiler filled review of the movie.

I'm not really sure what the next movie I'll be seeing for sure is so I don't know when I'll be back.

Previous review - Spider-Man: Homecoming

 Or if you want to go by release, here's my review of the previous entry Black Panther.

Wonder Woman - Film Review

Justicethon Day 7 Wonder Woman is directed by Patty Jenkins and stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Danny Huston, Robin Wright and Connie Nielson. Wonder Woman is the fourth film in the DCEU and the second not directed by Zack Snyder. Plot Set in 1918, long before the other 3, Princess Diana (Gal Gadot) grows up on the Amazon island of Themyscira. American pilot Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crashes offshore of the island and is rescued by Diana. After he tells Diana about World War I, she leaves her home in order to end the war. Review Let me just say: This is the best of the DCEU by far, it looks great, the story's great, the cast is great. This actually reminds me of two Marvel movies I've seen, Captain America: The First Avenger and Thor . CA:TFA was about a superhero going into a world war (I know they're 2 different wars) and Thor was about someone from another realm based on mythology coming into our society (I know Themyscira is on Earth and Asgard is on a dif

Mission: Impossible 2 - Film Review

Mission: Impossithon Day 2 Mission: Impossible 2 is directed by John Woo, and stars Tom Cruise, Thandie Newton, Ving Rhames, Dougray Scott, Richard Roxburgh, and Anthony Hopkins. Plot IMF Agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise, again) is sent to Sydney, to find and destroy a genetically modified disease called "Chimera". Review I didn't like this movie much, it's pretty forgettable. The first hour is slow and the action doesn't pick up as much until the second act. And I just couldn't get invested in it. I don't even remember some of the characters names, so I'll just refer to them by the actors' names. Also, if your movie is already as slow as Mission: Impossible 2 is, don't overuse slow-mo as much as Mission: Impossible 2 does. Also, this film originally had a 3 1/2 hour long cut. I'll pass on that. I will say, the movie is shot very well and some of the action scenes do look really good, but it's not enough to save this movie for

Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers - Film Review

Halloweenthon Day 5  Halloween 5: The Curse of Michael Myers is directed by Dominique Othenin-Girard, and stars Donald Pleasence, Danielle Harris, Ellie Cornell, Wendy Kaplan, Beau Starr, and Donald L. Shanks. Plot It's one year since Halloween 4 , and Michael Myers (Donald L. Shanks) survives being shot by the police. He continues his search for his niece, who is in a children's' hospital. Review If I were asked where the series started to go downhill, it would be this movie. This movie really had no reason to exist, as Halloween 4 would've been a good enough ending, but it made some money, so they rushed out a sequel the next year, and it shows. This movie isn't good, it's bad, but it's not a pile of garbage or anything (oh we'll be talking about garbage later in the marathon). So this movie begins the way Halloween II began, with them recapping the ending of the movie that came before it, but instead of no time passing, a year passes in
