Avengers: Infinity War – “All the heroes from the MCU gather together!”
This film reunites many heroes for the first time since the Civil War, allowing each to shine in their own moment. However, people who haven't seen any Marvel films and are seeing this one for the first time, or those who haven't seen any of the other films, may find it confusing. Especially at the beginning, when Thor escapes in a spaceship with one eye, it's confusing if you haven't seen Battle Royale. As the second-to-last film before "Endgame," Avengers: Infinity War stands out by bringing together numerous characters and altering the usual superhero narrative with its bold ending. -

Ant-Man and the Wasp: “I enjoyed it, feeling relieved and smiling.”
Sequels don’t often outshine the originals, but Ant-Man and the Wasp really did for me. World-saving heroes are impressive, but I find Ant-Man, like Spider-Man, much more relatable. That’s what I love about him. The villains in this film aren't outright supervillains; they have their reasons, and the arms dealer has a bit of a petty villain vibe, which is also nice. Since there aren’t a lot of tense moments, I could just relax and have fun, and I found myself laughing more than once. -
