I saw this movie opening night and was stunned at how sloppy the plot is. It felt rushed and completely arbitrary.
Throughout the MCU we are told only titans and celestials can handle infinity stones. Just holding one almost kills all the guardians but Tony Stark can handle all five long enough to snap? Ha no.
Thanos straight takes Hulk apart casually and walks right through scarlet witch but then in end game his power level fluctuates wildly and is suddenly held up by Thor and Cap with relative ease and almost gets solo killed by Scarlet Witch. Thanos gets weaker throughout End Game seemingly just as a plot device.
Suddenly Cap can not only wield mijolner but he also has Thors power of lightning! Absolutely unearned and silly.
Pim particles. In ant man 2 we are told shrinking down to the sub atomic zone (sp) takes a ton of energy and special particles per person. But apparently a hand from Nebula and half a vial of pim particles and Thanks can shrink his entire ship full of thousands of troops back to the future! Absolutely ridiculous.
The absolute lack of the galaxy in End Game is insane. So we kill half the universe but I guess no one cares but Earth right? Where are the Kree? The other celestials? Anyone else in the entire universe? Terrible.
One of the things I liked about the MCU was its seemingly planned out nature but End game for me showed this is far more fake it till you make it than a real plan. End Game discards tons of its own rules and tends to just make shit up on the fly to suit it's purpose. It felt rushed and the action was incredibly poor especially when taking the source material into account. I was really disappointed and surprised it got such good reviews. To me it's the 4 worst marvel movie above IM3, TDW, and Hulk.
