One of the reviewers title their review with this: "Even by Marvel’s own standards of mediocrity, Avengers: Infinity War fails" And then mentions this in the review: "Critics tasked with reviewing Infinity War were explicitly asked not to give away who dies and who doesn’t “out of respect” for the makers of these films, and their legions of worldwide fans. To the last point: the manner in which studio financiers weaponize fans as a bulwark against critical volleys is truly pathetic. As to the question of respecting the movie’s creative team? "
It's kinda hard to take this person's criticisms seriously when they seem so darn salty against the MCU in the first place.

Wow, just dropped to 89%. Holy Cow. Down to 90% already? It's dropping fast. And "ends with a cliffhanger"? WTF? They've had 18 movies to build up IW and they can't even finish the story in 2 and 1/2 hours?

What like Kill Bill...or Harry Potter....or Hunger Games..or LOTR....or the Star Wars saga If you honestly thought that with the announcement years ago of Avengers 4 and that it was filmed at the same time as 3, there would be no cliffhanger or ultimate conclusion in this film then you are being very naive.

Exactly, it's been known since Day 1 that this was being split in two, that's why the next one comes out in only a year from now.

"A combination of Hellboy, the Hulk and Darth Vader that produces an eloquent sociopath" Variety's description of Thanos sounds great!

Variety said of the huge cast, that everybody is great except for Don Cheadle and Scarlet Johannsen

I expect it to settle at around 85-90. I think the reason the reviews aren't starting at 100 is because unlike other MCU movies the embargo was close to the North American release. With 63 reviews so far a 90 with a 7.7/10 average rating puts it on par with Iron Man. So it's probably pretty good.

New bunch of reviews were added. 71 total reviews, 89%, 7.5 average score.
Thats the same average score as Thor Ragnarok so far.

Currently rocking a score of 69 on metacritic. For reference, here are the metacritic scores for the previous Avengers movies:
The Avengers: 69
Age of Ultron: 66
Seems to be in line with the previous installments.

Think its time to reboot the MCU. Its run its course and needs to be dragged into artistic filmmaking kicking and screaming.
