Review of Avengers: Infinity War (2018) by Calebstruth — 01 May 2018

Avengers: Infinity War is dripping in Marvel's consistent mediocrity. Simultaneously overgarnished and underwhelming, Disney's latest cash-grab requires the complete digestion of eighteen earlier MCU films.

You might also want to leave your sensibilities at home. The diaologue is a step up from Marvel's previous efforts; every character doens't speak with the wit of prime Richard Pryor. However, it's still painfully forced.

Switching gears, let's take a moment to appreciate the geniuses that crafted this work. Top-tier actors and writers and a production value that would impress any nonchalant moviegoer. Technically, it's a perfect movie.

But the standards of perfection are evolving, as is the cultural zeitgeist. Perhaps Disney should look towards the magic of its older works, because refining every aspect of a film until flawlessness is arguably getting old.
