Not sure why you have formed such a negative opinion, but your complaints were addressed in the movie. The Avengers went to Waka da to save Vision because without Thor around and with Iron Man missing and Hulk having issues he is the most powerful Avenger left. Dr. Strange gives up the Time stone- if he actually did- because that's what he did in the one future that the Avenger's defeated Thanos in.

There are several reasons to see it. The whole Wakanda scene in the back half of the movie. It is the modern equivalent of the Battle of the Pelennor Fields from Lord of the Rings. The Wakanda Forever charge is as moving as the charge of the Rohirrim. And Thor's arrival with Stormbreaker is as powerful as any moment in years.

You get a great deal of character development as well. Robert Downey, Jr. is equal parts charming, brilliant, sensitive, and assholish. Cumberland is superb as Dr. Strange. You will like Spider But Josh Brolin steals the show as Thanos in a portrayal of a villain that has not been of this quality since Heath Ledger's Joker in the Dark Knight.

It is a perfect movie? No. But it did an excellent job of weaving together all the previous movies and characters. That is an accomplishment in itself. We're there things that could have been done differently. Of course, but once you get by the choppy "set-up" scenes at the start it is mesmerizing.

That was the conclusion my boy came to, it's the only thing that makes sense

I'm glad you liked it

My son liked it, I just thought it was really weak compared to past Marvel films and the hype

You seem to be a big fan. I was planning to go see this movie, but I haven't seen a superhero movie from the last 15 years or more. Would I need to watch any (or all) of the Marvel movies to know what's going on?
