Non-Spoiler thought: This movie definitely delivers and pays off the journey that fans have been following for the past decade! I think there won't be any MCU movies topping Endgame for a long, long time. There are laughs and cheers, but there are also moments that everyone stay deadly silent. The movie is evenly divided into three (or four depending on how you want to look at it) parts. I didn't have ANY urge to sleep or go to the bathroom for the whole three hours. The ending is not rushed like the others, it will be something everyone can look back to. I will certainly see this AGAIN in theatres in the upcoming weeks!
THANOS DEMANDS YOUR SILENCE!! Which is why the FULL SPOILERS review will be posted on June 11, the day that Captain Marvel releases on Blu-ray! Until then, head out and enjoy the show!
