  • It's a sleekly witty action opera that's at once overstuffed and bedazzling... The directors, Anthony and Joe Russo, working from a script by the crack team of Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, are far more stylish and exacting filmmakers... 'Infinity War' is a brashly entertaining jamboree, structured to show off each hero or heroine and give them just enough to do, and to update their mythologies without making it all feel like homework.
    Owen Gleiberman on Variety
  • Avengers: Infinity War is a giant battle for which directors Anthony and Joe Russo have given us touches of JRR Tolkien's Return of the King and JK Rowling's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The film delivers the sugar-rush of spectacle and some very amusing one-liners.
    Peter Bradshaw on The Guardian
  • This chaotic but surprisingly nimble instalment, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, brings together an eye-popping ensemble cast of A-listers (imagine the table read!) and pushes them into playful new configurations. Tony Stark, AKA Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr), is paired with Dr Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Spider-Man (Tom Holland)... The film's strength is dramatic stakes for its complicated, easy-to-love characters, which renders the downbeat ending genuinely audacious.
    Simran Hans on The Observer
