I just saw Endgame today morning and at the end, as the credits rolled, I had a small lump in my throat. It was like an end of an era to all the MCU movies I had seen in the last 11 years starting from Iron Man to Captain Marvel.
We have lived our lives with these characters. It just not about their names but also who they are, what they do and how different they are from each other and yet are together for a common cause - to fight the enemies of earth. These movies have made us know them as if they are our friends and well wishers.
So there was a sadness when the end credits rolled as I said good bye to these friends and as Captain America says in this movie "Life has to move on".
Coming back to the movie, hats off to the Russo brothers and the writers to ensure that this is not some revenge drama. This is not a part 2 of Infinity War. Revenge is a very small topic here and the message sent thru the movie is revenge serves no purpose at the end. It is what we can do to make this better again.
I don't want to tell any more details because anyone who like me has loved the MCU movies has to see this movie. It is has all the ingredients - action, drama, emotion and comedy.
The writers also spray in bits and pieces from the past movies and other MCU characters to make it interesting; it is like connecting the dots. I had fun watching those scenes because it is smart writing.
The acting is outstanding and each actor gives their best shot knowing that this is the grand finale. Special mention goes to Hemsworth, Johannson, Evans and above all the man who started it Downey Jr. They take the movie to another level.
Finally, is this the best film in MCU? I say No. This movie is a bit too long for its own good at 181 mins. I feel it could have been 15-20 mins shorter. Also, for me, the Iron Man (part 1), Captain America - The Winter Soldier and Civil War, Thor Raganrok and Black Panther are the best films of the MCU.
However, is this a fitting finale? Yes, it is and a beautiful one. Damm, I am going to miss the Avengers !!
