Don't @ me but my overall thoughts on Endgame was that it was "good". But that's just me cos if I'm honest I don't really connect that much to films in a way that this film was made for. It's not anything to do with being a DC fan either cos I'm the same with DC films or any film.

Also people trying to tell me it's like Empire and Jedi, I kind of see what your getting at, but Star Wars to me was a lot better and they did it in 3 films.... Not 22. That's nothing against marvel, but dont try and persuade me by comparing it to Star Wars like that.

Marvel has achieved something that no other franchise ever has, and thats keeping a loyal fan base within this many intertwined films all sharing the same universe. I know what they've achieved and what it means to people, but for me, I just don't connect to films in that way. Bravo to marvel though. Fans that do connect to these films will love it

A decent conclusion

A decent end to the Millennium Trilogy as it sums up all the main plot lines. Carrying straight on from the end of the 2nd film, you will need to have seen the first two films. I have to say this is the weakest of the three by some distance though. There isn't as much action, tension as the first two films but if you enjoyed those two great films you will enjoy seeing it reach its conclusion.

Movie Favorite

"The truth is, it’s the “five” part [in Five Favorite Films] that’s a joke, you know? I probably have a good 100 favorite movies of all time. I mean, like, my brain is rifling. Am I really not gonna include A Woman Under the Influence? Am I really not gonna include Nashville? Am I really not gonna include Synecdoche, New York? I could do my five favorite films with terrible cinematography. I could do my five favorite films about love affairs."

Pierce Brosnan recommended There Will Be Blood (2007) in Movies (curated)

"What other great films are there? Ah, for God’s sake, There Will Be Blood and No Country For Old Men. I saw those films that year, back to back. Just outstanding work by director, writer, producers, actors. Captivating, both men: Javier Bardem and Daniel Day Lewis — just iconic. Every time he steps on the stage, you know, you can’t take your eyes off the guy. And both films sit on the bookshelf as bookends, really, to that special year of film making."

Mixing up characters from the other films

An amazing Spider-Man film

Finally saw it today with out knowing any spoilers. It's a great entertaining film carrying right on from the end of Far from home.
Definitely one for fans of the other Spider-Man films bringing back and teaming the villians together. Even at the long run time the film whizzes by before you know. If you liked the last two Spider-Man films you'll love this.
