Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Here is a movie that combines two film dynasties, the Avengers and Defenders of the Galaxy. Even with their combined strength, they still are a bit inadequate to confront Thanos (Josh Brolin voice) and his hoards. Thanos is on a quest to retrieve the five stones with which he will have all power: The Power Stone, The Reality Stone, The Space Stone, The Time Stone and The Mind Stone. He destroys Thor’s (Chris Hemsworth) hammer in retrieving the Space Stone. He is successful in getting three stones, but the Mind Stone is in Vision’s (Paul Bettany) forehead, and the Time Stone is kept safe by Dr. Strange’s (Benedict Cumberbatch) deceptions. Thanos is gathering the stones to complete his life-long task of killing half the people in the universe, and thereby eliminating hardship and hunger. Thanos is the father of Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and Nebula (Karen Gillam). Gamora and Dr. Strange have the best chance of stopping Thanos. There is a confrontation with Thanos on his home world with Iron Man ((Robert Downey Jr.), Spider Man (Tom Holland), Star Lord (Chris Pratt), Drax (Dave Bautista) and Mantis (Pom Klementieff), At the same time Thor is off to forge a new hammer. He travels with Groot (Vin Diesel voice), and Rocket (Bradley Cooper voice). Others prepare for a confrontation on the Black Panther world of Wakanda. They are joined by many as the attempt to destroy the Mind Stone without killing Vision. These are: Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk, Chris Evans as Captain America, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Don Cheadle-War Machine, Chadwick Boseman-Black Panther, Elizabeth Olsen-Scarlet Witch, Anthony Mackie-Falcon, Sebastian Stan-Winter Soldier. There are many more in this epic battle. I must admit, the ending of this movie left me with a bad feeling of despair. Thor battles hard, but with all five stones in place, Thanos has unlimited power.
