The Shelf:
This is blockbuster filmmaking of the highest order. Avengers: Endgame is the culmination of a decade's worth of stories, character growth, and audience investment.

Pay or Wait:
Avengers Endgame is a beautiful and satisfying culmination of 22 films in the MCU. This film is not only monumental but a love letter to earth's mightiest heroes and its fans.

Vulture: (Spoiler Warning)
Even at three-plus hours, the gargantuan Avengers: Endgame is light on its feet and more freely inventive than it needed to be. Given the year-long wait, its audience — Pavlovian dogs, myself (woof!) included — would have salivated over less. It’s better than Avengers: Infinity War, which was better than Avengers: Age of Ultron; and it is, for a change, conclusive. My 16-year-old daughter regretted having put on mascara prior to the screening because, by the end, it was all over her face. Even in Franchise-Tent-Pole-Universe land, some superheroism is finite.

This, however, might be Endgame‘s greatest achievement of all: As it unfolds, the film invites and allows you to forget about whatever you came in deciding it would be. It is its own story, even as it’s tied to so many other stories, one that will satisfy many and, in all likelihood, leave a certain cohort of fans enraged, because that’s how even the most universal stories now function.

Roger Moore:
A sometimes ponderous and always-pandering script gets by on the considerable charm of that wonderful cast, one last time.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

Scott Mendelson:
Surprisingly smaller-scale and lighter than INFINITY WAR, with disappointing action to boot, but it ends on a high note and the key characters get pushed in interesting directions.

That review is FULL of spoilers. I wouldn’t read it if you want to go in truly blank.
 
RT Critics Consensus: Exciting, entertaining, and emotionally impactful, Avengers: Endgame does whatever it takes to deliver a satisfying finale to Marvel's epic Infinity Saga
 
China is coming thorugh with a 9.2 Maoyan and 9.3 Douban, here's hoping US and Canada come through with an A+ Cinemascore.
 
GQ Magazine:

Avengers: Endgame is above all else a cathartic film. It's suitably emotional and tense enough to feel like a film that really is the culmination of 11 years and 21 movies worth of filmmaking. It wraps up its major plot lines in a way that feels unique, satisfying, and befitting of characters that, particularly in the case of the original Avengers, really do deserve a climax as grand as what they've received.

Nerdist:
If you have anything close to the bond with these characters as the filmmakers hope you do, you'll be satisfied. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll shout "yeah!" and clap.

JoBlo:
A fitting capper to one of the biggest franchises of all time.

Common Sense Media:

Quick-witted and nuanced, this movie takes the best of the genre -- iconic heroes fighting for truth and justice -- and dishes it out in a fanboy-pleasing, edge-of-your seat way. Full review
 
Houston Chronicle:
"Endgame" is the most emotional of the Avengers movies, a tear-stained farewell that effectively tugs at the heartstrings while simultaneously blowing them up with a large army's worth of CGI warfare.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5
