If you’re a real nerd, you probably enjoy reading reviews, listening to reactions, and talking about a movie after you see it. I know I do! So I’ve been scouring the web for Avengers: Infinity War reactions. Even now, two weeks later, I am still reading and listening to thoughts on this epic movie. I collected these resources to share with you.
SPOILERS AHEAD! DO NOT READ ON IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR.
Avengers: Infinity War Reactions – Blog Posts
Dissecting the Biggest Moments from Avengers: Infinity War / The Hollywood Reporter: Listen, I loved this movie, but I was not a fan of the ending. I think if they had just killed ONE of the original Avengers (Iron Man, Cap – the ones we know are on their way to “retiring” in this series), it would have been more impactful and believable. But personally I was just left with a feeling of, “Well, none of this is real. It will all be undone.” Then Meg Downey had a really excellent point in this article that made me think. She says, “I don’t really think it matters that we’re likely going to be seeing most if not all of them return in the next movie. It’s not really about the consequences lasting forever, that’s not important. The weight of this story is in the process of telling it, not in the permanence of the aftermath.”
Avengers: Infinity War Feels Like the Beginning of a Goodbye for Captain America / Vox: “Cap sacrificing himself for the greater good would feel like the ultimate inverse of Thanos’s decimation: giving his life to save the people he loves, instead of killing someone he loves in the name of a greater good. It’s a sacrifice that only Cap could make.” I predict this is where Infinity part two will go.

Best Scenes and Quotes from Infinity War / Christy’s Cozy Corners: For a movie so chocked-full of action and characters, they certainly tucked in quite a few awesome, quotable lines! “It’s like a pirate had a baby with an angel.”
Avengers: Infinity War Review / Gunaxin: I concur with Phil’s final line: “But if all the film does is put us through an emotional roller-coaster before possibly walking it all back – what’s the point?”

Thank you so much for including me in this post! I am looking forward to seeing Infinity War for a 3rd time this weekend. I know there is so much more I missed. Do we really have to wait another year for Avengers 4?!!? I don’t want to…

I know! At least there’s Captain Marvel in March… I’m sure a post-credits scene will tease Infinity 4!
