Avengers: Endgame REVIEW Thread

He's from IndieWire. Usually it's in their twitter bios if you click the name.
just click on the tweet and read his bio.

He's a reviewer for Indiewire. He also does amazing "Best of" end of year film compilations. Super snooty and pretentious, but, when he likes something, it's usually a good sign.
FTR: I like the dude, but whenever he talks about Marvel or 3D animation, I'm usually eye-rolling.
I remember telling someone that this was NOT going to be a grim movie besides it's starting point, but honestly, that's the most obvious thing in the world.
Anyone who thought this was going to be anything other than hopeful and triumphant in tone was not thinking that much about it tbh.
8.4 average score after 51 reviews, nice. Should be able to hold around 7.8-8.0 and definitely end up higher than Infinity War (which I think had about 7.4?).
Yeah, I'd honestly be ok with them never making another MCU movie after this one.
Negative
Thanks, Ill have to check out some of his best of lists in that case.
I always try to hide when I'm about to cry while watching a movie, but I'm not going to be able to for this one, am I?
OT, but Twitter just did a vomit update all over my screen so finding more reviews just got tricky.
I love seeing Endgame get great reviews but I'm not sure I can take someone who spouts that level of hyperbole about IW seriously...
As someone who likes Ehrlich, describing him like that is totally fair. I am fairly snooty about movies as well and we have similar taste, and even I find him to be a little much at times.

I'm not going to hide it, no shame here Fam.
Thanks man
I'm all on board with this post.
If it helps, his only time watching it was during that continuous Marvel movie marathon he agreed to sit through for charity, so, in addition to already disliking Marvel generally, he was especially pre-disposed to hating it.
Don't be scared, you have other 'less snobbish film reviewers' losing their minds about endgame. Maybe it has enough for everyone to get something good out of 🤷♂️
I should have known to expect this, but some of these reviews get pretty far into spoiler territory, particularly the Vox and Variety ones.
This is my kind of jam, actually.
Yes.
I'm not sure why people are hiding this. This saves plenty of people a lot of time going home.
(Unless they're pulling an Avengers 1 and retroactively including it for NA audiences)
I never read the reviews, the little blurbs in RT is about as far as I go
Essentially what I was trying to get across by posting the tweet.
Thank you lord almighty.
The best scenes in the MCU are always the characters just chilling. This does more to raise hype than anything imo.
High in the tower of the Avengers who are gone
Natasha would dance with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones who had loved her the most
😢
yo same. this is more exciting than "wait til you see so and so setpiece"
next 48 hours gonna feel so long
Ehrlich's reviews are not really a touchstone for me, especially as far as superheroes go since he tends to dislike those movies anyway (was not surprised he hated Infinity War since he watched it at the tail end of a 30-hour marathon of other movies that he also mostly hated lol). But even still, his praise for this one is pretty interesting to see.
probably the most important review yet
damn, even my hype is building
