movie review - Avengers: Infinity War

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2019.01.06

The kids like super-hero movies, so we're watching a bunch. This orgy of character appearances with a thin alien invasion plot was today's lucky entry and I have to say it thoroughly lived up to the trailers. It absolutely cannot get any more self-indulgent, and never has a two-hour movie been made with less plot.

Recommended. If you've got a seven year old and a twelve year old to entertain.

I feel fortunate that I enjoyed the blandishments of modernity. I had hip replacement and root canal. I was able to travel on airplanes. I was able to take cheap food for granted. I went to the movies. I enjoyed rock 'n' roll. And now I'm ready to move on.
