Avengers: Endgame – The DVDfever Cinema Review by Nik Coppin

Avengers: Endgame
Avengers: Endgame: Everybody wants to know what happened to all those people that got turned to fish food in Avengers: Infinity War and do they get brought back? Well, half the universe do anyway.

Let’s face it, we know at least some of them must get brought back, because we have Spider-Man: Far From Home coming up very soon, as well as more from the King of Wakanda and the Master of the Mystic Arts.

No secrets or spoilers there, then. But how? How do they come back from those little cardboard tubes in the pet shops?

Well, there would be spoilers right there and as such there’s not much I can say without giving stuff away, so I’ll just say this: Avengers: Endgame is a brilliant ride. A ride full of things I didn’t quite expect and things I kind of did.

But at no point did it disappoint.


Avengers: Endgame Side-by-side IMAX trailer



Marvel Studios have over the years managed to find a magnificent balance of humour, mixed with underlying moral issues, sad moments without dwelling on them too much and of course great action scenes and character development.

I think I preferred Infinity War and a small gloveful of other Marvel studios films to this finale if I’m honest, but Endgame wraps up this era of their ongoing story arc in fine fashion.

One can’t help but feel sad that this chapter has come to an end, but also wonder with huge anticipation where they are going to go next.

Endgame and Marvel close a lot of doors, but also open up so many more with regards to the future of the MCU. And with them acquiring Fox, hopefully we can get another 10 years of thrills, spills, ups and downs and surprises with the arrival of the Fantastic Four, mutants and the X-Men.

We shall see.

Roll on the next 10 years.

Avengers: Endgame is available to pre-order on Blu-ray, 3D Blu-ray, Amazon Video, 4K Blu-ray and DVD.
