Avengers: Endgame (2019) - Blu-ray Review

Details: Published: 24 April 2019; Written by Christopher Symonds

Eleven years ago, I snorted derisively at the audacity of the newly minted Marvel Studios plans. Without a single hit to their name, a grand plan had been hatched: they would release a litany of films, starring their various characters (that they still had the rights to) and combine ...
