This movie was awesome and definitely one of the GOAT comic book movies I've ever seen. It had heart, it had color, it had joy, it had a soul. But it also had a very serious and thought provoking plot complete with themes that viewers can appreciate and understand easily and it still did a fantastic job of keeping in character with everybody.

I can't wait to see it again.

This Spider Man has tons of potential. He was cracking a lot of jokes left and right and acting like Spidey really would. The original spidey with Tobey Maguire cracked like maybe one joke throughout the entire trilogy and he was serious in those movies. This one is going to really nail the character. I also loved the a hot aunt may as that's a refreshing take from the usual old lady aunt may.

While Iron Man is pretty cool to watch, Cap is easily my favorite Avenger of them all and he is what a leader is supposed to be and what men is supposed to be like. He reminds me so much of what Superman is supposed to be like over in the DC universe.

The airport fight scene was fun to watch but that last fight scene was what really hit home to me as there was an emotional component to it and you could really feel the rage and desperation coming out of all three of them and it was tough to watch.

Such a satisfying movie to watch.

Just got back and WOW. Scratching my head as to how Marvel continues to just kill and DC just can't seem to do better than "meh".

Spiderman was awesome and I can't wait until his movie.

I was crossing my fingers for a GIANT surprise out of AntMan and he "rose" to the occasion.

My favorite MCU movie to date

Scarlet Witch was a fricking badass.

The interactions between Sam and Bucky were hilarious.

Even though I knew Peggy dying was coming, it still got to me.

I just lifted this from the previous thread and put it here since we got this now.

Once we got to this sequence, at no point did I believe Tony or Steve would kill one another, but the way the fight played out I began to doubt that a little.

Every blow even scared me bit towards the end. I was even convinced that Tony would have resorted to murder.

I'm blown away by how good it was. You could honestly but in on either side and it makes sense. I was team Cap all the way, but how can you blame Stark at the end?

This guy nails it!

Best Marvel movie yet!!!

After it was over, I felt like head butting women, punting puppies, running through a fricking brick wall, something... It is balls to the wall!!

Just perfect!

Black panther was awesome! Had great comedic moments throughout.

I'll just put it like this, there was ghetto trash sitting behind me commenting about every scene, and I didn't give a shite. That's how great this movie was!

tons of potential and I feel like this iteration has a chance to be the best. the maguire turn got way too fricking emo, while the garfield version seemed too fricking smug.

this is peter parker as he should be..a kid with a smokin aunt

I think holland nails the character much better than the previous guys.

Best Avengers movie so far. Much better flow than the Whedon movies (even with Spider-Man forced in and out).

Strong performances except for Wanda (and ScarJo can't make it through these things without a wooden line or two).

The early fight scenes were too shaky. The hero on hero battle royale was done fairly well though. Tough to have Wanda and Vision in there and not make the fight all about their powers.

Plot was a bit convoluted with all of the "Team Winter Soldier" stuff just being a ruse to get the three of them in one place. Much easier ways to accomplish that.

Not sure why they wasted the Zemo name on that villain. The look of the original Zemo was so awesome and classic. Now he's just your average villain.

Panther is a nice addition.

Hopefully the Infinity War movies will have these characters as a team instead of the infighting that we've had in every Avengers movie.

They should really give The Vision his own movie. He's by far the most interesting character on the team and his powers are visually amazing.

Really not a fan of Spider-Man being such a sidekick to Iron Man. Hopefully that dynamic disappears with the Spider-Man movies. God Aunt May is young.

The mid and end-credits scenes were okay. The Stan Lee cameo was nothing.

It worked really well for such a long movie. The Russos are definitely the best thing that Marvel has going for them.

Be honest, you put a lot of effort into coming up with all that nitpicking

You can just admit it blew away BvS. No one will judge you for admitting it. This is your safe space.

Are we ever going to see another Hulk movie again? It really is a damn shame to see him stuck in development hell.

But to be fair, Black Widow deserves her own movie first before Hulk gets his second.

Thought it was great. I was really impressed with the way all the characters were juggled and none of them seemed left out or overshadowed.

I wasn't crazy about Joe Blow from Sokovia being able to successfully pull off such a complex plot against the Avengers but I just found out that he is supposed to be one of Captain America's big villains.

And even if he wasn't I still liked the way it showed how vulnerable and divided the Avengers were over the Sokovia Accords

They've got too many other characters that are better draws. They're better off throwing him in the Thor movie where he won't overshadow the other heroes' power levels.

I was hoping that Thunderbolt Ross would build a little on his, "Where the frick is the Hulk?" question.

I sort of want to give a review but I'm honestly struggling to figure out anything to say

The action was definitely awesome and the characters were handled very, very well. I wish the plot had focused a little more on political division than using it more as a backdrop.

My theater had a group cosplaying basically every Avenger, the funniest being Thor who went on and on about how he wasn't in the movie (afterwards)

Really pumped for the upcoming slate of MCU films now.

Going to see it again tomorrow for the matinee
