The film had high expectations but were also pressured by the millions of fans’ expectations to live up to. With so much to handle, the Russo Brothers (directors) managed to make the film live up to the hype that it had since the start of the Avengers Initiative. With carefully planned narrative and universally outstanding performances by our favouri...
