Purple enemy is enemy number one
"Losing is always bitter… Consider yourself right and lose...". These words always come to mind when it comes to "Avengers 3" or Thanos. Powerful, painfully truthful and devastating.
Infinity War wasn't just an expected movie. He was mega-expected. The whole history of the Infinity Stones, all the storylines led to this final point of action. The intensity of expectation has reached unprecedented peaks. Therefore, the film had to be two or even three heads higher than its predecessors, so that the viewer was really stunned. And it was quite possible for the creators.
What did you remember about the film? Yes to everyone. There are so many emotions at once, but you need to put them on the shelves. The obvious thing that probably delighted me and everyone was the masterfully staged development of the plot. Almost all the characters from past films are here. So much was not even in the "Citizen". A couple dozen, if not more. And that's cool. The directors perfectly show each character, their experiences and difficult decisions, dedication and striving for their goal. Of course, when watching the viewer looks back at the previous films, he already has an opinion about each character. Therefore, in "War" all the attention is on the action, which, by the way, is insanely much.
The film starts, immediately setting up a serious and uncompromising mood. The first scenes are gloomy, the music presses, and the henchman of the villain literally sentences with his monologue. And it was strong. Let the film then change its tone from gloomy to cheerful and back several times, still the general mood remains not at all comical.
The main antagonist is remembered. Thanos, in my opinion, stands above all the villains who were in the film universe. He is diverse, his thoughts, clothed in words, are well understood. Sometimes it doesn't leave the feeling that his plan is a bit childish, and the decision to deal with everyone is a bit silly, especially with artifacts such as Infinity Stones, but in his reality this is the best decision, he came to it, and he defends it.
The film is gorgeous in its visual component. In 2.5 hours, the viewer gets just a lot of impressions, sees the maximum possibilities of the cinematic universe, every frame, every scene is full of events and a magnificent visual component. The pictures are diverse. There are cities on Earth, and Wakanda, and Titan, and space. And everything has its own unique colors and shades. There is also sound and music. Oppressive, and somewhere victorious, brutal or sentencing — all the sounds absolutely organically fit into the concept of the film.
And of course the finale was simply stunning. I remember how the whole hall fell silent, watching the metamorphoses that were unclear at that time.
The movie came out great. Marvel has shown its true trump cards, including emotional clashes, unpredictable deaths in the best traditions of "Game of Thrones", and the viewer suddenly realizes that it turns out that even here the heroes do not have absolute invulnerability, and they are mortal. And that's right. Let the stereotypes be broken.
"Infinity War" demonstrated an excellent result, rose above all previous works within the film universe, ended abruptly, forcing the audience to guess for another year what would happen next and thereby making the interest in the next picture even greater.
