This was a great movie for the fact that you forgot your troubles for 2.5 hours and could watch some awesome heroes and villains clash in an epic war! I'll break it down as follows!
Reasons it was cool: Visually pleasing and smooth CGI (minus Bruce Banner's head in the hulk iron man suit [WTF?]) Thanos looked good though!
Great mesh of the different characters (Thor and Guardians of the Galaxy).
I enjoyed the emphasis on Thanos as his story is quite interesting; naturally a stand-alone movie would be nice.
This movie raised the stakes! Maybe our heroes AREN'T as immortal as we thought?
Reasons it was not cool:
Criminal underuse and screen time for some of the cooler Marvel characters like Dr. Strange, Captain America, and Black Panther. I get that it is an ensemble film on steroids, but felt shortchanged with regards to them in particular.
Thanos seemed overpowered at times, not allowing for enough actual war or conflict
The ending (will not spoil) loses some of its impact when you realize the other Marvel movies coming out.
