With a 4 year old son, it is difficult to see all the biggest movies at the cinemas.  Most blockbusters are rated M and aren’t suitable for him to see.  Even if the rating was suitable, he wouldn’t last the 2 hours most movies are these days at the cinema sitting still without causing a scene.  It is therefore more often than not that we wait for the DVD or Blu-Ray release of the movie and watch it in the comfort of our own home.

We rated the first Avengers movie one of best action comedies ever made.  The memory of Loki being punished by The Hulk still brings back chuckles.  With high expectations after the first movie, the second Avengers movie just felt like a big letdown.  A bit too serious maybe?  So we readjusted our expectation level for Avengers: Infinity War.

Luckily, it didn’t disappoint.  Non-stop action with special effects galore as different groups of superheroes from all of Marvel’s other movies combine to take on the evil Thanos.  The to and fro dialogue between firstly Star-Lord of the Guardians of the Galaxy and Thor, and then Star-Lord and Ironman is comedic genius.

The only real issue with Avengers: Infinity War is that you a built towards a final conclusion, but the conclusion never comes.  I guess that’s how you sell movie tickets to Avengers: Infinity War 2.  It wasn’t a problem for us as we have seen all the other Marvel superhero movies.  However, for those who haven’t kept up with the other superhero outings, some things in this movie may also seem to not make sense.

Nonetheless, a thoroughly enjoyable movie.  So much so that we would watch it again just to get all the finer details that you miss the first viewing.  Bring on Avengers: Infinity War 2!
