Avengers: Infinity War is not the first superhero movie to try to translate crossover events from comic books to the big screen. Marvel Studios itself has repeatedly done so since The Avengers to Captain America: Civil War. But the new Infinity War that really gives the perfect definition, watching it presents a similar feeling reading crossover event. The fact that the film runs smoothly is a fruit of Kevin Feige's patience and the team built dozens of characters along with a vast universe over a decade through 19 films. Without it, plus some inevitable shortcomings, Infinity War would lead to a big mess that is easily forgotten. This is one of a kind, If you are familiar with superhero comics, of course, you have enjoyed crossover events like Infinity Gauntlet, Civil War, Secret Wars, and others. A bit of explanation for non-readers, an event has a major series that tells the main conflict as well. As a companion released tie-ins that featured side stories and details of events that befell each character. For a less acute comic reader like me, in order to save time, it's never missed tie-ins and went straight to the main series. As a result, the outline of the story can still be understood, but it feels right there are details that are missed, the emotions are not maximized, or the incident a glance ago. Infinity War performs so, so for an alien audience with such reading experience, there may be dissatisfaction.

But do not worry. Russo Brothers (The Winter Soldier, Civil War) really understands how to display the moments that will be remembered for years to come, from the appearance of cool characters and action that can provoke the clapping of applause (when I watch about 4-5 times at the hands of the audience broke) until the feeling of jerks found our heroes placed in a danger they had never experienced before. Aided by Trent Opaloch camera arrangement that has been collaborating with Russo Brothers since The Winter Soldier, a barrage of iconic images was created. But from the beginning, the biggest challenge is to bring together so many characters with so many stories. And the duo writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely undertook the challenge.

Avengers are divided into groups. The Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) team waits for Thanos on the Titan Planet, his hometown, Captain America (Chris Evans) united with Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) to face the fourth invasion of Black Orders who calls themselves Thanos, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) with Rocket (Bradley Cooper) and Groot (Vin Diesel) trying to create a weapon against the Titan Gila, while Star-Lord (Chris Pratt) leads the Guardians in an impromptu rush. Markus and McFeely did what they could, bringing together all sub-plots as neatly as possible with Edrey Jeffrey Ford and Matthew Schmidt's editing that resulted in a smooth transition. I am grateful that both scriptwriters continue to include comedy that is still effective in laughing, although their humour writing has not been as sharp as Gunn or Waititi. For with such figures as Guardians of the Galaxy and Iron Man, completely disarming comedy is a waste of potential. As the flow of flow, the displacement of the tone was smooth. Something that was originally like an impossibility, just as the success of the Russo Brothers defended the characteristics of each franchise, such as the Guardians with the music and the chatter, One thing for sure, Thanos (Josh Brolin) is central to everything. Six years after his inaugural appearance, Thanos began to move to collect the Infinity Stones. Power Stone at Xander, Space Stone secretly brought Loki (Tom Hiddleston), Time Stone under the protection of Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), Reality Stone in Collector's collection (Benicio del Toro), Mind Stone that turns Vision (Paul Bettany ), and Soul Stone whose existence is still a mystery. Various theories about the location of the last stone scattered on the internet, and everything misses. Even after the release of two trailers plus a stack of promotional clips, Infinity War is still able to save surprises, both about the flow, how an action scene is executed, and of course the death (and return) of the character.

Not a spoiler when I mention there are characters that are dying. Without it, it is difficult to assert Thanos's status as a great enemy whose presence has been built for years. But it's not (just) that Thanos deserves to be the best villager of MCU, but success makes him a personality figure. Thanos is not entirely evil. His ambition is not to master or destroy the world, but to balance it, or if it may be called, heal it. Thanos is not a monster without feeling. There is a hidden sensitivity that Josh Brolin can channel through expression. As soon as the movie ends, the loss and destruction that Thanos feels are as great as the superheroes. He's a sad figure
