Saw it a few hours ago, 9/10. Would have liked to see more of Captain Marvel. Didn't care for Thor's treatment some. Otherwise, loved it.

A solid 8...Or 7.
I'll be generous and say 8.

Avengers: Failgame.
They kinda blew it.
I'm so sorry to write that, I am honestly shocked to be writing that, but these are my initial feelings and observations.
What was good: As always plenty of very enjoyable character moments, entertaining scenes, emotional scenes, and the very last shot of Cap and Peggy was indeed a very nice way to end it.
What sucked: Almost everything else. Where to even begin. Time travel automatically makes a movie stupid, and every time travel movie that has ever been successful has been because it's big moments lie independently of the time travel logic. You throw out all logic and coherent plot out the window and give actors the feely lost-mommy and daddy and loved ones scenes. Great, yes, you get strong emotional scenes but when nothing in the plot makes sense they come across as unearned. As not actually important. Same with the """actual""" deaths in this movie. Like are we really supposed to feel deeply or really believe that Natasha, Tony and the others are dead? Thor was right when he asked - why can't you snap your fingers and bring them back anyway? You've already time and space and reality and soul traveled 1000 times in all directions sideways, leaving behind any rules and coherence - so why can't you? Because of some red potion-thingy that for some unknown reason you can only use 1.5 times? Give me a break. Extremely weak writing that makes the big moments hollow. Yes the time travel gives you funny and emotional scenes. But it severely cheapens and weakens the end product. Other things were in the middle. Yeah FatThor was funny, but then...they stuck with that for the whole movie? It made him look like a total goof when the big supposedly serious fight came. Thanos - brilliant character in Infinity War - but here he was reduced to first-grader planning and reasoning. So he snapped his finger and made half the universe disappear - but only left the other half alive because he didn't realize they would actually care enough to try and get revenge/reverse what was done? Really he has destroyed countless of worlds across galaxies and doesn't realize some people would get kind of pissed and try to reverse it? Only then does he get the idea to destroy everything? C'mon. Thanos is one of the greatest comic book characters of all time, I really hope this is not his finale in the MCU. Not like this. Infinity War was a masterpiece, one of the best films of the decade. Unfortunately it set up a scenario that was not solvable, and certainly time travel was not the right way to go about it. It's basically a surrender of plot and ideas in order to get unearned feels in. I don't know what I will rate Endgame yet - despite all this criticism, I still have a child-like love for these characters, I still enjoyed plenty. But as a finale it is a big failure, and even on it's own I would rank it below average Marvel film.

Every single last Rate: thread I have ever seen in these boards discusses the movie at hand. The link you sent is about labeling threads with spoiler or no spoiler title. I cannot possibly in a million years comprehend how someone not wishing to be spoiled will click into and read into a thread that is rating and discussing a newly released movie. Not only that but I see no other official discussion thread.

If I were you, I'd admit my mistake, apologize and put spoiler tags on my post. Hopefully no-one else but me has read the spoilers. Oh, and here's the discussion thread you're looking for.

Anyone coming on this page would immediately think people are discussing the latest movie in the Rate: thread.

Some users might just come here to see the general score that's been given. It's better to be safe and just keep spoilers to the spoiler thread.

Infinity War was better and if it wasn't for the last hour I would have probably given it a 7/10.

An 8.5/10. A really good movie but I too preferred Infinity War....and maybe the original...maybe.

Finally got to watch this. With all the hype surrounding the movie I went in there fully expecting this to be my new favorite MCU movie.
It... wasn't. While it had a lot of very cool scenes and some of the best emotional beats in the MCU, somehow the sum of its parts seemed a lacking in oomph. I can see why people here are saying they liked IW more.
It's still a great film, but it's not cracking my top 3. Might not even make it to my top 5 MCU films.
There were also a few scenes near the end that I disliked enough that it soured the taste of the movie for me.
