Avengers: Endgame Review Rating: ★★★★★ (4.5) This is a heavy, heavy spoilers review. Don't read it unless you have watched the film. I would not wish that upon anyone.  This is the 22nd film of the MCU and that sentence is just nuts to me.

Also as a note I personally cannot stand any dream sequences in any movie. When there is a dream sequence, all I can think about is when there is a next dream sequence coming which completey takes me out of the movie. Honestly, think dream ...
