Avengers - Infinity War (part 1) *** Huge Spoilers ***
Action packed superhero fantasy adventure.
22 (yes 22!) heroes battle the evil Thanos and his Infinity Gauntlet.
To become all powerful Thanos needs to gradually collect all 6 mystical infinity stones, only then can he complete his Universal genocide masterplan. The superheroes aim to stop him with their individual special powers. Dr Strange has foretold millions of possible outcomes of the battles ahead, his priority is to protect the time stone (hanging around his neck) but gives this up in exchange for Iron-Man's life. We are led to believe that Iron-Man is the key to ultimately beating Thanos.
Unusually the villain wins and in doing so we see many important heroes die, in a dramatic 'turned to dust' way. However Dr Strange's time travel ability may bring them back for part2? We also know the individual instalments are yet to come.
The film is long, dark and gritty. There are good character dynamics, humorous in places, emotional in places (especially in the last 30-45 minutes).
3D is effective, so invest in the option where available.
I really enjoyed the soundtrack as well.
Recommended.
8/10
