Happily enjoyed 60% this movie (I was looking away completely or staring through the tiny gaps in between my fingers for the other 40% cause wtf)

I feel like there’s a really good movie in here somewhere, but nearly all its pieces are not as cohesive as you hoped it would be and are rather scattered all over the place. This looks great in a lot of parts and the performances keep this engaging, but I expected much more…
The ending had me tears though, just so freakin’ beautiful. Wakanda forever.
What a beautiful way to end this trilogy. I do have a few complaints regarding the length of this, but that might’ve just been because of how tired I was. Other than that, this is essentially peak MCU. The character work, stakes, humour (Drax + Mantis combo >), and best of all, its heart, is what makes this one of the finest and most important films this franchise has to offer. When seeing these group of loveable weirdos together for…
I should try even harder to go into movies without any expectations. That means no reviews, no videos, nothing. As dumb as these films have always been (including and especially this one), having no sense of how bad or good Dominion was all for the better.
This probably won’t age that well, but I can’t deny how great of a time this was. Personally one of the better blockbusters in recent years, and definitely my favourite of the trilogy!
Overtly maximalist and teetering on the edge of being comical… and somehow it all works for me? I dunno, this realistically shouldn’t be rated as high as this, but I think I love this franchise too much to care how insane this movie gets. I know everyone is mentioning the submarine and biplane sequence, but there’s two fight scenes that intercut with each other around the midpoint of the film that I adore just as much.
When you think the world has already got practically peak animation, comic book filmmaking and Spider-Man all in one back in 2018… can’t believe I’m saying it, but this might have sured the original.
Bigger and bolder in every conceivable way, yet I think they manage to pull off every single punch they make. Don’t really have the words to describe how happy and strangely invincible this film made me feel, but if there was ever a movie that needs to be seen to be believed - it has to be this one.
The third act 😶
Takes the focused story-telling of the original, expansive world-building and lore of the second, and truly breathtaking fight choreography and set pieces of its predecessor to yes… it’s true… create one of the greatest action films ever put to screen (at least from what I’ve seen). This is a behemoth of a picture, yet it never crumbles beneath its own weight and earns it’s nearly 3 hour runtime. I could go on and on about how stunning this is visually…
IT’S THAT GOOD WTF
The only reason why this isn’t liked is cause of that third act - if it was as phenomenal as those first two, it would’ve been an instant frickin’ favourite. Yeah, I know most of the emotion does come from that final hour, but the execution leading up to those emotional peaks was a bit messy and convoluted personally. Hopefully, it’ll be a smoother watch later down the track.
But holy crap, other than that, The…
