Avengers: Infinity War


Well, we just finished viewing Avengers: Infinity War for the second time.

10 years, 18 movies, all leading to this one simply amazing movie.

I know it is only the start of the summer season, but this Marvel movie checks all the boxes on a very enjoyable movie going experience.

The film starts off immediately with the action and never lets up. Filled with all the Marvel characters we have grown to love. Each one getting their individual moments. Of course you'll enjoy plenty of comedic moments, but there are definitely some emotional and even shocking scenes. I will tell you right now, I gasped out loud at certain times on my first viewing. And that ending had set my brain on pause as I tried to process what I just witnessed.


It gets a L - Legendary!!

That's right! I am giving out a Legendary on the first week!!

I don't know how any other movie will top this one during the rest of this summer season.

I'm not even sure which movie is next in line. I may need a little bit of time to recover from that dramatic ending.

When does Ant-Man & Wasp come out?
How long do I have to wait for the next Marvel film?
I just wish it was May 2019 already!!

AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!

Yes! Yes! Yes! SLMR returns!!

Finally! Summer Movies have returned!!

That's right. It's that time again. Summer Legendary Movie Review has returned for its 11th season!

Refresher...

Each and every week of the summer movie season the Summer Movie Squad (SMS) gathers together to view one (or more) of the premiering films. What follows (hopefully) is a post on this blog about the magical movie going experience.

As always, this is a NO SPOILER zone. The worst part about most film reviews is when the impassioned critic believes it's his/her purpose to ruin the reviewed movie for you by providing a detailed re-telling of the entire plot. Not on this blog! We will simply give a honest recommendation based on our well established personal ranking system.

With a new year, comes a few new modifications on how we will deliver our reviews to you. We will still provide a post on this blog each week, but we will also test out other ways get out a more instant response.      i.e. quick Facebook Live or Periscope reviews.

This year is also the earliest start date for SLMR. That's mainly due to Avengers Infinity War moving its premiere up a week.  Now on to the list!!
