Movie Review – “AVENGERS; THE END GAME” One of the Worlds Highest Grossed Movies with $1.2B in 4 days
IF you haven’t seen the latest blockbuster movie breaking all ever set records, then I wonder what you are waiting for to see this new amazing movie from the Marvel family.
So if you read my review a few weeks ago, about the new movie “Captain Marvel” and how they needed to introduce her to us, because we were going to be seeing her at work here in the new Avengers; End Game, she did appear in a few roles, but played a strategic role in aiding the destruction of the bad guys. She is probably the strongest superhero there is on earth now.
The excitement and eagerness for Avengers was extremely out of this world, as usual you know the Marvel Group do spend a lot on publicity and marketing and the trailers have being on every blog, site and social media handle, just like the coming of the new season of Game of Thrones. Everyone was waiting patiently for this new edition and end as they kind of told us and which doesn’t really seem so at all.
I am great fan and follower of the Avengers family, I have loved every single character and superhero introduced and somehow you can’t just help but love them all, they sincerely do have a way of getting into your life and sticking there.
I remember how they introduced the first ever black superhero to appease the black fold, and they cashed out in over a billion dollars in revenues surpassing every imagination or expectation. So for all of us we deep down knew that this new one would definitely be a work over for them and it surely was, grossing over a billion dollars in four days, yes you heard me four days.
I have being thinking for a few days now, wondering how they had told the “Avengers” stories for years and preparing that one day the whole series would come to an end and they would have to be a link to all past editions and all the ever created different characters, sincerely the directors Anthony Russo, Joe Russo and the writers Christopher Markus and Stephen Mcfeely, – I must say are geniuses.
I must commend them for the outstanding job carried out in making this movie a huge success, making it one of the greatest movie ever in history. I will give you a few stats on how well this movie has done In just 6 days and still counting comparing it to some others.
So far the movie has made over 1.2b dollars in the cinema making over 357m dollars on its opening day , making it the highest ever in the movie industry world history. It is now obvious that they will make it into the world’s highest grossing movies of our time beating the 2b dollar bench mark.
Presently only four films have made it into the 2b dollar ranking, they are ‘Avatar’ of 2009 they made 2.7b dollars, then we had ‘Titanic’ of 1997, followed by Star Wars; the Forces awakens (2015) and then finally ‘Infinity War’.
For you to get a clear understanding of this movie, its paramount that you have seen the other Marvel group movies and the previous ‘Avenger” movies, because this movie brought previous characters to life and all editions had a critical role in this final one called End Game.
So remember the last edition of the Avengers Infinity war, where at the end half of the population disappeared, I knew there was definitely going to be another one, which I told you to watch out for, and the introduction of the last superhero “Captain Marvel” made us understand that she would be essential in putting an end to Thanos.
In this new movie, the super heros alive had to seek a way to save all their
loved ones that were trapped in time. In the process of thinking, ‘Ant Man” who
had disappeared in his last movie, through the time machine came back and told
them, that they could use the new Time machine to go back in time, reverse
things and change all that Thanos had done, after much deliberations and with a
few heros volunteering to go on the mission, they started the race back in time
to save the world and destroy Thanos for good.
There were loads of flash back and time travel, and in this process they started to retrace their lives back to undo Thanos’ snapped fingers. Tragedy is must say was rocked this Avengers boat hard. For me, there were some fighting scenes that dragged longer than normal but I couldn’t complain. If you are not careful and alert you might take a few naps, and miss the crucial parts of the movie.
The best part of this movie for me was towards the end, when every super hero that ever lived in the Marvel group had to return to fight and destroy Thanos and his evil men, hence saving the world. Oh and you all must love how Captain America commanded lightening with Thor’s famous hammer.

It’s obvious that a lot of sacrifices had to be made in the production of this fantastic new movie. Although, I had a bit of reservations here and there with the movie being over rated, over hyped and some scenes unnecessarily too long, I must confess that it was a very good movie after all, hence my score of 9.5/10. I am a huge fan of the Marvel group and the Avengers movie, having followed them from ‘The Incredible hulk” of 2008 till date with this new movie called ‘The Avengers; The End game”.
They have produced a
total of 22 movies till date having an average of 2 movies every year, and they
have certainly gone from being good to being one of the greatest, allowing them
to become one of the most successful studios in history, with having almost
every movie as a hit.
We couldn’t have asked for more as they have continuously set the bench mark of super hero movies so high. I am definitely recommending this movie, especially to my action movie lovers out there, I am quite sure you will enjoy this movie and you would understand why each previous edition had to end the way they did, the link and the connectivity in this final one was just impeccable, and I can’t take it away from them.
