Before reading this article, please be aware that the article includes spoilers. Recently released movie, Avengers: Endgame, is perhaps the most anticipated film in recent memory. The box office numbers are already showing this with the movie becoming the highest grossing movie in cinema history, making over two and a half billion dollars in three weeks. The film is the fourth installment of the Avengers series, which combines characters from numerous Marvel superhero movies. As the series has become more and more popular, Marvel has involved more superhero characters, such as Captain Marvel and Black Panther. Endgame continues the story that was developed in the previous Avengers installment, Avengers: Infinity War. In Infinity War, a powerful villain named Thanos collects the six infinity stones that gave him ultimate power over the universe. Once Thanos collected all of the stones, he was able to exterminate half of all living creatures in the universe. Endgame follows up on the aftermath of this catastrophic event and the attempt by the surviving Avengers to fix their mistakes. Despite various shortcomings for the film, the positive elements outweigh them and allow the film to now be the highest grossing movie of all time. |
