Half of the universe is literally gone following the Infinity War, but that won't keep the Avengers down for long. Reaching out to old allies and recruiting new members, the reform with the goal of confronting Thanos and reversing his actions.
Robert Downey Jr. (Tony/Iron Man), Chris Evans (Steve/Captain America), Mark Ruffalo (Bruce/Hulk), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Scarlett Johansson (Natasha/Black Widow), Jeremy Renner (Clint/Hawkeye), Paul Rudd (Scott/Ant-Man), Brie Larson (Carol/Captain Marvel), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Zoe Saldana (Gamora), Josh Brolin (Thanos).
Avengers: Endgame picks up where Infinity War left off; with the Avengers and the last of humanity mourning the half of everything Thanos destroyed. But the Avengers don't give up and quickly dust themselves off, begin recruiting new members, and put a team together to try and reverse what Thanos has done. The result is probably the darkest and most depressing of the Avengers films to come out. There are regular reminders of those who were lost, and the hopelessness of the situation. Something the less-than-happy ending does nothing to change.
Acting was good as always but I really enjoyed the blending of Bruce with the Hulk and the depth Ruffalo was able to bring as a result. Downey, Evans, Hemsworth and Johansson were all solid as always. Renner is okay but lacked energy this time around. Gillan and Saldana did nicely and Brolin did great once again. This huge cast all did quite well.
Camera work, sets, and backgrounds are consistent with the franchise however it felt like VFX were lacking a bit of quality and detail at times. Dialogue was decent with good depth and a few bits of humor to break up the drama and depression. Sound and soundtrack are good as always.
Overall Avengers: Endgame is a decent continuation of the storyline, but a bit disappointing as a film. We've come to expect some humor and light drama from the franchise and much of that was missing here. Many will enjoy the consistency and finish with this one despite the darkness, while others may miss the humor.
With some mild sexuality, plenty of violence and gore, some foul language, and adult situations, this should be fine for teens and above.
