AVENGERS ENDGAME (Dir: Anthony Russo & Joe Russo, 2019).
Approximately 3 years after the rest of the world, I finally watched Avengers Endgame and I was not disappointed. For what it’s worth, what follows is spoiler free. Not that it probably maters much now anyhow.
Over 11 years Marvel have rewritten the superhero movie playbook, becoming the most critically and commercially successful franchise in film history. For better or worse the MCU has had a profound effect on movie making with every other Hollywood studio scrabbling around to compete with their own cinematic universe, but with only a fraction of the success. As the ‘Infinity Saga’ draws to a close Marvel further cement their reputation as comic book movie king.
Anybody who has sat through the previous 21 Marvel Avengers movies will know what to expect as the surviving Avengers assemble to take down bad guy Thanos and restore order to the Universe.
Thankfully Avengers Endgame is at least as enthralling as the movies which preceded it. It looks amazing. Art direction, costumes, special effects and action set pieces are all exemplary; every cent of the $356 million budget is up there on the screen to see. The performances from the star studded cast are faultless, the Russo Brothers direction is a stylish as always and Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely’s screenplay is exciting, funny and ultimately, surprisingly moving.
At 3 hours long I would suggest emptying your bladder before watching. (Fittingly for such a lengthy movie the end credits roll over Harry James and Kitty Kallen’s recording of the Jules Styne and Sammy Cahn standard It’s Been a Long, Long Time.) I would also NOT recommend watching without having seen Avengers Infinity War (A Russo & J Russo, 2018). For everybody else watch, enjoy and maybe shed a tear.
