Although Infinity War feels over stuffed with characters and storylines, the Russo Brothers do an exceptional job by giving each character enough to do. It’s full of surprises and twists which will leave you exhausted by the end. Thanos gets some interesting backstory, it would have been even better if the menacing Dark Order got some backstory themselves as we never really understand them or their motivations.Įven though it enters familiar ground, it is often done differently and most of the time it’s unpredictable. His crew (Dark Order) also seem unbeatable as they battle the rest of the Avengers in Wakanda with their alien army which also proves difficult. One sequence on his home planet ‘Titan’ is worth mentioning and like most of the film, it is breathtaking and tense. The Avengers and Guardians have to race against time to stop him from finding all six. He is so determined to get all six gems, each gem making him stronger.
The story is more about him achieving his goals which is refreshing to see as the villains are normally sidelined in these films. Thanos has been teased since 2012 and the wait has paid off here as he is by far one of the best villains. It’s a thrilling action sequence that introduces Starks cool new nano-bot armour that creates its own swords and shields. It is down to Doctor Strange, Wong, Tony Stark and Spider Man to prevent Thanos’ evil minions from destroying New York and taking the time stone. A defeated Hulk/Bruce Banner is then transported to Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum so he can warn him of Thanos’ arrival. He interrogates Thor and beats Hulk so bad he is too scared to ever turn green again. It opens with a distress call as Thanos and his Dark Order have slaughtered most of passengers including some of the remaining Asgardians. It picks up where Ragnarok left off on the space shuttle with Thor, Loki, Hulk and all the remaining Asgardians. Infinity War does a brilliant job by seamlessly combining the last few films together.
