I finished the Marvel marathon and now my life is empty (movie reviews)

I wasn't playing - Infinity war got me so hooked that I actually dedicated a few weekends to this and I do not regret it. Let's go right into it shall we?

Iron Man 2

This isn't a good start, but we kinda skipped this one. Heard it wasn't really good, googled the plot to make sure we don't miss something and went on to the next one.

Sorry/10

Captain America:Winter Soldier

OK now this isn't a good start either, but I fell asleep watching it. Not because it was boring, just because I was very tired. But as far as I caught up, the Winter soldier is Bucky, he was brainwashed and now his boyfriend Cap is saving him. Also Black Widow is here. Cool.

zzzzzzzz what happened/10

Iron Man 3

Noooow we're talking!

This was pretty much amazing. So many new suits, so much blowing up, crazy Gwyneth Palthrow.  I love Iron Man because he shows the real human side that you don't see in many superheroes. The fact that they show that he is anxious and has PTSD (which I guess is pretty normal after you take a fucking nuclear bomb and fly it into a hole in space and then almost die) is really amazing. I am really impressed by that realness factor in the movie. Also watching hundreds of Iron Man suits blow up is just epic.

Thor: Dark World

Not my favorite Thor. Why tf does Loki just die and come back to life whenever it's convenient for the writers with no explanation? I'm not settling for "He's the God of Mischief" any more. I mean it wasn't a really memorable movie to me. Also,Natalie Portman you dummy why did you go look for stuff alone? Aren't you a scientist? Shouldn't you know better girl?

Meh /10

Guardians of the Galaxy 1 and 2:

I mean, ok. It's funny, it's cute, it's interesting, but I wasn't that impressed. They just seem like I've seen it already. And also, Bradley Cooper is the Rocket? Are you kidding me? I haven't been this surprised since I found out Vin Diesel does the voice of Groot. Which is just hilarious to imagine that phone call:

Marvel: Hello Mr. Diesel? Yeah we would love to put you in a Marvel movie. 

Vin: Wow thank you, finally I can do a good movie! What do you want me to be, Starlord, Hulk, what? 

Marvel: Well...how do you feel about a tree, but get this, it says only 3 words the whole movie!

Vin: You know what fuck it, the Rock got a spinoff from MY Fast an Furious franchise, so I'm already dead inside, sign me up for the tree thing.

Someone buy me a Groot so I can love it/ 10

Avengers: Age of Ultron

Yes! I mean there is something super powerful and epic in multiple people fighting together and combining their powers, and all the slow walking and group shots - yes please! I don't get why they used actors for Quicksilver and Scarlett Witch with the WORLD'S WORST FAKE RUSSIAN ACCENTS. I feel like Elizabeth Olsen keeps forgetting that she needs to use the accent and then someone reminds her over and over again. And quicksilver is just irrelevant at this point like he had maybe 4 lines in the movie. And then they kill him. Great dude.

Rating:

Epic/10

Captain America: Civil War

This movie pleasantly surprised me when I realized that it turned into Avengers 2.5. Antman? Spiderman? Fucking bring the reunion on! Also them fighting each other? I mean I got so excited watching this because it was so epic. Love love loooooved it! Good job writers, so much shit happens in this movie and it really takes some skills to fit it all into one movie.

Rating:

Big Antman!!!!! / 10

Dr. Strange

Really had no clue who this guy is before Infinity war. I love that he was like a normal human being and then turned into this portal crossing dude with a valuable necklace and a cape that's cooler than him. Pretty cool, although not really memorable. But Benedict you my friend make everything work! Congrats.

Please teach me how to open portals so I can travel for free/10

Spiderman: Homecoming

Yeah I didn't care for watching this one. Sorry Spidey, we just couldn't wait for Ragnarok so we had to skip this bro.

Rating: 

Still better than Toby / 10

Thor: Ragnarok

Absolutely the best Thor movie, one of the best Marvel movies and even the best Hulk movie ever made. It was just so hilarious, the jokes were funny-stupid but I loved it! And here I also realized how many Lord of the Rings actors were actually in Marvel movies so that is a big plus really. I mean bringing Galadriel and Eomer together? I had to hold my tears because I felt this on a personal level. Bravo!

Rating:

Bow down / 10

Black Panther

I mean, honestly the coolest people in this movie are the women of Wakanda. They are so badass and smart and beautiful and have amazing skills that I loved that. Black panther and the more blinged out Black panther fighting was like a meh to me. The women beating the shit out of the bad guys? A+ !

Rating:

I feel like I should buy a spear and learn to fight/ 10

Did I cover it all? I hope I did. Well it has been really cool to learn it all about the MCU. 

Before this, my favorite movie franchise list looked like this:

1. Lord of the Rings

But now, it looks completely different:

1. Lord of the Rings

2. Marvel CU

Honestly anything that makes me want to watch almost SEVENTEEN MOVIES in chronological order is some pretty powerful stuff - so congrats Marvel, you did good. I am looking forward to next year and seeing all the Marvel surprises like Captain Marvel and the next Avengers!

Until next time 😊
