My Review
“The movie of the century”
(Warning: Contains spoilers, profanities and very informal way of writing a movie review)
It’s been a month since the movie team up of the century arrived in theaters nationwide and the hype is still real. The internet is still loaded with Infinity War memes, theories, photos, posts and articles. To be honest I don’t know what to write in this movie review because it’s much easier telling my thoughts about this movie through Fangirl Language and facial expressions. Alas, I’m an introverted fangirl who wants to start a reaction vlog about the movies and series I watch but don’t have the courage to do, so I’ll just stick to writing. I’ll try my best to be cohesive and coherent because my reaction and thoughts for this epic movie is exploding and it’s everywhere.
First of all, I was going to watch the movie alone during opening day, but my family wanted to tag along and we decided to watch the movie Friday night, and since it was a Friday night it means it’s the perfect time to go watch the biggest movie event of the century. So my family and I decided to go to the theaters for an 8PM showing, but the theaters were already packed with moviegoers. It was the first time I saw our newly opened local theater packed with a big population of people who are ecstatic to watch a film. The line was just shocking, it almost circled around the place and it got me thinking if this is the situation here then how much chaotic it is in other theaters in the city. I bet that almost all of the theaters within our city (or even the whole Metro) are packed with moviegoers who are there for one thing only, Infinity War.
We opted for a 9:30 PM showing instead of a later schedule of 10 PM because I still have class the following day (Yup, Uni life means Saturday classes are normal). I was still glad I got to experience watching the movie on a big screen while it was still fresh in theaters (and also while beating all the spoilers on the internet) despite not having the best seat in the house (as what my dad would put it), we were seated on the second row meaning we would be having serious neck pains afterwards.
Okay, so here it goes.
