Is 'Infinity War' Everything You Hoped It Would Be?
by EG
Some lucky superhero fans have been lucky enough to see Avengers: Infinity War - Part I a few days early, and they're reacting on social media. As should be expected in these situations, the reactions range from those who think it's the greatest film ever made to those who think there's never been anything worse. We're guessing the truth is somewhere in the middle.
Avengers: Infinity War has finally been unveiled.
Filmmakers Joe and Anthony Russo introduced Marvel Studios' most ambitious movie yet at the film's Hollywood premiere Monday, and the reactions are pouring in on social media.
The secrecy for the new Avengers movie has been even greater than usual for Marvel, which generally holds premieres and press screenings several weeks ahead of its official release dates. In the case of Infinity War, Monday's comes just days before the film officially opens on Friday, and official reviews will hit Tuesday afternoon.
The Russos and Marvel have said holding the premiere so close to the release date is to minimize the chance of spoilers leaking out (the filmmakers have even urged fans to stay offline until they can see the movie). Infinity War's sprawling cast includes Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Chris Pratt and Tom Holland.
Here is a sampling of what the premiere audience is saying about Avengers: Infinity War.

#AvengersInfinityWar: Despite some truly thrilling moments, feels like less than the sum of its parts. A definite step down after that epic run of GotGV2 / Spidey / Thor 3 / Black Panther, but what else did I expect?
