OVERVIEW OF PLOT

• As the Avengers and their allies have

continued to protect the world from threats too
large for any one hero to handle, a new danger
has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos.
A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to
collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of
unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his
twisted will on all of reality. Everything the
Avengers have fought for has led up to this
moment.

MAIN CHARACTERS

Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man

The leader and benefactor of
the Avengers, who is a self-described
genius, billionaire, playboy, and
philanthropist with electromechanical
suits of armor of his own making. Stark
"senses this greater threat approaching,
so he is doing everything in his power to
keep the Earth safe".
Chris Hemsworth as Thor
An Avenger and the king of Asgard. Thor has "the driving
hero's arc of the movie which stands in direct opposition
to Thanos' argument" and would have been the main
protagonist of the film had Thor killed Thanos.

Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner / Hulk:

An Avenger and a genius scientist who, because of exposure
to gamma radiation, transforms into a monster when
enraged or agitated. Banner spends the film trying to
reintegrate with the Avengers, and also tries to "impress upon
everybody how dangerous Thanos is". Hulk refusing to appear
for much of the film was only partially because he was
scared, but also because he realizes that "Banner only wants
Hulk for fighting. I think he's had enough of saving Banner’s
life."
Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider-Man
A teenager and Stark's protegé who received spider-
like abilities after being bitten by a genetically-
modified spider. Downey "kept driving: put more and
more emotion into it, and just went up to Tom and
said, 'You don't want to go because you're a child.
And you're using your strength as Spider-Man to fight
this'. And then that was the performance that came
out."
 MEMORIABLE SCENE

Iron Man and Spider-Man’s new suits

In the New York fight, Tony Stark reveals his new
self-constructing armour with a fluid metallic
material that acts as his muscular system. That’s
not all. He even gives Spidey his new suit. When
they are up in space, Tony Stark orders a “Code
17 A” and vroom comes the suit flying for Peter
Parker. And before our youngest Avenger
realises, the suit becomes his skin and also has
Iron Spider arms.
Peter Quill loses it
First, it's Quill's plan that allows them to get
that close to getting the gauntlet away
from Thanos. Second, before he clearly
makes a huge mistake by attacking
Thanos, let's remember the last time he saw
the purple tyrant. Thanos literally made him
kill Gamora. She didn't die, of course,
thanks to the Reality Stone, but Quill still
had to go through the agony of having to
kill the one woman he loves. It's a terrible
choice and yes, Gamora is the one who
put it on him, but it's Thanos who really
sadistically toys with him.

Snap
Thanos did what he shouldn’t have, turning half
the universe into dust including our superheroes.
And while everyone (mostly the new Avengers)
presumably dies, it was the farewell of Peter Parker
which left an impact. The way he clinched on to
Tony Stark claiming, “I don’t feel so good, Mr. Stark.
I don’t want to go,” took the shocking end one
notch higher.

 OVERALL OPINION

• Intense and grande, Avengers: Infinity War is worthy

of great respect. Marvel heroes from all walks of life,
from Thor to Spiderman, get caught up in Thanos
scheme to cull the universe of half of its life and no
one is safe. And still it manages to share a laugh, to
make us smile, and in end have the viewer feel
great empathy for the heroes' struggle. The villain is
complex, the protagonists vulnerable. It just looks
great, it moves well with no boring parts, and I don't
know if it could stuff any more characters in it. Utterly
charming, I loved it.
 VALUES

TEAMWORK IS VERY IMPORTANT

The Avengers: Infinity War shows how one team is better than
one person. The superheroes all came together with one purpose
in mind- to save the universe. They worked together, putting their
respective differences and egos aside to accomplish a common
goal.
We can also see the teamwork put together by the cast and
crews of the movie to make it a huge success.
As an individual, don’t be a lone wolf, set aside your ego and
strive to become a better team player.
ANGER IS DESTRUCTIVE
Don’t let your emotions get the best of you. Your emotions – especially
anger, can be destructive.
Star-Lord allowed his anger to ruin the work done by the other
superheroes. He acted impulsively and they all paid for it. They almost
defeated Thanos, but he didn’t think before acting and it cost him and the
others.
We must learn to control our emotions, especially in very delicate
situations. Acting on your emotions will cost you, so always think before
you act.

SUCCESS COMES WITH A SACRIFICE

Success isn’t without cost. It always comes with a sacrifice. The price of
success is paid in the currency of hard work.
• Thanos had to sacrifice the one thing he loved, his daughter Gamora.
• Dr. Strange sacrificed the Time Stone to save his friend,
• Tony Stark (Iron Man) and Vision also sacrificed himself to save the
universe.
