The more I’ve thought about it (and after seeing it twice), the more I like it.īut it also sets a bar that will be extremely difficult for 2019’s sequel to clear.
In doing so, it raises itself into the upper ranks of Marvel movies, maybe even of blockbusters generally. Instead, it asks audiences to sit with failure and doubt, in a way very few blockbusters do (and much more successfully than the recent Star Wars movie). The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s latest entry, Avengers: Infinity War, raises a question familiar to hero stories - what is the worth of one life relative to many? - but avoids offering the usual easy answer.
But for my money, Marvel Studios has been downright daring in raising difficult, and very adult, moral dilemmas. Superhero movies are often dismissed as teen adventure flicks writ large.
