Review of Avengers: Infinity War (2018) by Drlowdon — 09 May 2018

After years of build Thanos finally arrives on Earth with the intention of claiming the six infinity stones and wiping out half the life in the galaxy.

Bringing together such a huge cast of characters from the MCU was never going to be an easy task but the Russo Brothers have done a brilliant job of ensuring that virtually everyone (aside from Hawkeye and Antman who are MIA) gets sufficient screen time. Seeing the Guardians of the Galaxy crew meet up with Thor or Iron Man and Doctor Strange fighting side by side is a dream for fans of the comics, or even just those that enjoyed these movies over the past decade. Thanos himself, a focus of a large part of this movie, is equally excellent and right from the outset comes across as a real threat to the heroes.
