Warning: This review article may or may not contain potential spoilers. So in case you haven't seen the movie yet, I suggest you close this page, get your patootie in the movie house near you, and prepare to spend for like three hours of your daily life (aside from the money, of course). Otherwise, CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED.
For ten years and counting, Marvel Studios has redefined movie-watching and pop culture in so many ways. Each of their installment has out its actors on the legacy map. A simple hype has turned into a larger-than-life phenomenon. Hell, we have seen how tantamount their fans, right? Especially when leaked spoilers were exposed online.
April has been the yearly crusade for the geeks and marks of Marvel, the comic world, and action movies. This year's nothing different: it's like waiting for a once-a-year episode – a follow-up of sorts to what transpired on the Infinity War. What's next for this legion who lost half of their wards and allies to a juggernaut that is Thanos?
Or wait, are they really sent to oblivion? Could they find their way to get back? Can history be revised to make alternate realities align in such a parallel form?
You see: for three hours, we have seen the Avengers embarked on a somewhat race-against-time journey – a gargantuan task compromising the past, present, and the future. This ain't a walk to the Back To The Future park – the story arc has been made far-fetch better than its generic form, with planting seeds in between and reaping some of them.
It's a good thing that the entire duration of Avengers: End Game at 3 hours and 2 minutes didn't feel dragging. The casting may have done a great job on putting its characters accordingly in ample given time. Hey, it's no joke to put a superstar-studded squad inside an epic saga and, run on a very typical 2-hour run, and hope they don't look chaotic (in a bad way) as fuck. Though the musical scoring came for mostly-grandeur and a bit bland. They derived away from those pop-rocking fashions that launched this franchise to even greater heights and resort to the scores of a typical drama epic. Not really a bad thing, considering how Alan Silvestri come up with these tracks, but there's a part of me that wished he toppled Brian Tyler's works.
If the Endgame is considered as Stan Lee's last will and testament, then we have probably seen more than what is stated. More than enough or quite over-delivered, I must say. It turned out to be a fantastic conclusion to a most-beloved decade-long saga; or maybe a bit of partial since there's a passing of the torch part 2 to Thor, Guardians of the Galaxy.
Funny to say, this has been the biggest crossover ever since the NWO and D-Generation clashed at WrestleMania 31 or Jay-Z collaborating with Linkin Park as shown in that MTV VS show – hell, even toppling their previous Avengers offerings.
The month of April has managed to deliver two notable big-time go-home long-timed show. Unfortunately, only Endgame – and not WrestleMania 35 (because of a clusterfuck main event match no matter how people desired the result from the start) – managed to send people home happy and wanting for more.
However, to say Avengers: Endgame as the best movie of 2019 is quite unfair. It is not... yet. We're not even halfway through the year to judge; so how dare you people declare as such?
