The more I watch it the more I am convinced Endgame is a highly overated film. The plot, if mostly ignored does bring things to a convenient ending but there are too many holes to go into. For one thing how the heck does Cap manage to return all the infinity stones? Did they build a new tesseract, give the Red Skull the yellow stone back (and what did Cap say when he saw the red skull?!), re-inject Natalie portman with the Aether etc? And if the Thanos from before GOTG comes forward in time, dies and then never returns does this not then massively change the entire timeline causing a huge paradox?
The CGI is ropey at times, particularly the time suits. The end battle is a lot of fun but its also one of the most cringe worthy fights in cinema history. Captain Marvel is literally OP. Why would she conveniently need the backup of all the other women who just happen to be in that spot at the same time? And in 2025 is Fortnite still the dominant videogame?
Infinity War is a much better paced film with fantastic fight scenes, some great re-introductions and the most jaw-dropping ending to a film since Empire Strikes Back.
