Endgame The Critics/Rotten Tomatoes thread

[Everett Ross]

Uh-oh, looks like my worst fears are being confirmed before my eyes.

Unfortunately, the Russos seem to have fallen to the great CBM director curse and dropped the ball at the final hurdle. Just like Raimi, Favreau, Whedon and Singer before them...

First rotten review - Review: The hulking, unstoppable Avengers: Endgame is genius, but of an evil and shockingly boring variety.

 

[Silver Surfer]

USA Today:
If the Marvel superhero movies on the whole are your favorite band's individual albums, "Avengers: Endgame" is the triple-disc greatest-hits package with the really awesome cover and a slew of familiar, comforting gems inside.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4

 

[HammerDown]

Seems like it's 98% then.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Perri Nemiroff:

Avengers: Endgame is a lot - sometimes too much. But, wow, the payoff is huge. It leaves you proud to have invested over a decade in a franchise that delivers an inspiring exploration of what it means to be family and a hero.
Full Review | Original Score: 8.5/10

CNN:

April 23, 2019
Having set up a formidable task and then some with the finish of "Infinity War," "Avengers: Endgame" rises to the challenge, delivering an epic finale that proves immensely satisfying.

Screenrant:

Avengers: Endgame wraps up the story of the MCU so far, delivering an epic superhero adventure while honoring the past in a satisfying finale.
Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5

 

[Silver Surfer]

The Atlantic:

The Avengers, as a concept, probably won't be going anywhere, but Endgame still feels like a proper goodbye.

New York Times:

April 23, 2019
At its best - and "Endgame" is in some ways as good as it gets - the "Avengers" cosmos has been an expansive and inclusive place.

 

[Shuri]

Wow! This is better than I thought it would be. Glad the critics loved it. 85-93% hopefully.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Collider:

April 23, 2019
By carrying the weight of 21 movies with it, Endgame feels far grander, surprising, and emotional than your typical sequel.
Full Review | Original Score: A-

Variety:

April 23, 2019
After the must-see showdown that was 'Infinity War,' the Russo brothers deliver a more fan-facing three-hour followup, rewarding loyalty to Marvel Cinematic Universe.

[Silver Surfer]

TheWrap:

April 23, 2019
Has almost nothing on its mind but crossing the Ts and dotting the Is of a far-flung superhero saga, but to anyone with even a minor emotional stake in the MCU, it has the fleeting satisfaction of a shot of whipped cream direct from the spray can.

VOX:

April 23, 2019
The most shocking thing about Avengers: Endgame is that there are several moments within this colossal movie that feel like a Marvel miracle.
Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5

Mashable:
April 23, 2019
This is Marvel flexing, building on over 10 years and 20-plus films of careful groundwork and intricate planning to show us what it can do that no other movie franchise can. As such, it's an immensely satisfying finish to this era of the series.

Daily Mirror:
April 23, 2019
It's game over for Marvel's competition as their latest superhero spectacular smashes into cinemas like the Hulk on steroids, and is the thunderous triumph we've all been hoping for.
Full Review | Original Score: 5/5

 

[spiderman2]

Heard the reviews where supposed to come out 30 minutes ago but I still have nothing when I go onto the rotten tomatoes web site.

 

[Iceman]

This is much better than I expected so far.

 

[spiderman2]

About to start my class hopefully I will see a score later.

Polygon:

Endgame knows what its audience wants, and delivers that without feeling like quote-unquote fan service.

Philadelphia Daily News:
April 23, 2019
I wasn't sure, after the tedium of Infinity War, that Marvel could wrap this up in a satisfying way. Turns out, it was a snap.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

 

[MahvelBaby!]

How many reviews to start? Glad it leaked hate that stupid crap about withholding the score.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Chicago Tribune:
April 23, 2019

[E]xtravagant - and mostly very gratifying.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

Splash report:
April 23, 2019
The longer run-time and bloated cast are surprising strengths, permitting this grand finale to be more than just a superhero flick. A fitting, over-arching conclusion by a studio that knows how to get this genre spot on.
Full Review | Original Score: A-

 

[MahvelBaby!]

98% is a hell of a start. That's all I needed to se

 

[Silver Surfer]

Salt Lake Tribune:
April 23, 2019

"Avengers: Endgame" delivers everything Marvel fans will enjoy and not much that they expect.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/4


Associated Press:
More than any of those franchises, "Endgame," at its best moments, carries the thrill of classic comic-book twists and reversals.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

 

[Fallen]

God bless the Russo brothers. They did it again.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Total Film:
Part of the journey is the end, and this goes out with a bang that'll make you whimper.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/5

Den of Geek:
A massive, incredibly entertaining epic that is as emotional as it is spectacular.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/5

 

[KaijuDude1992]

Yeah this is getting a much stronger response than IW which is exactly what I was expecting. People wanted that epic, emotional payoff that IW didn't quite give them and it sounds like they definitely delivered on that front here. The Russo's are 4 for 4 now.
