The film’s final montage, which shows most of the MCU’s established heroes turning into clouds of dust before their friends’ eyes, left audiences reeling. Consequently, the closing moments of Infinity War see Thanos successfully acquire all of the six Infinity Stones and use them to achieve his lifelong goal of erasing half of the galaxy’s living beings from existence. Unfortunately for the latter group, Thanos wipes the floor with most of them without even breaking a sweat. The Russo Brothers-directed film delivers on the promise of its 2012 predecessor, The Avengers, by finally having Thanos (Josh Brolin) come to blows with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Unless you’ve been living under a rock for five years, you likely know what happens at the end of Avengers: Infinity War.
The film kicked off the conclusion of the MCU’s 11-year-long Infinity Saga and did so by hitting audiences with a cliffhanger ending that left them salivating for nearly a full year to see its resolution.įive years later, Avengers: Infinity War’s decidedly unhappy ending not only seems like an even more brilliant creative gamble on the part of Marvel Studios, but also reveals exactly what has been missing from so many of the MCU’s recent efforts. However, today only marks the five-year anniversary of Avengers: Infinity War, which first hit theaters back in 2018.
The MCU’s current struggles may make the days in which it was widely beloved seem like a distant memory.
