The Avengers: Endgame premiere was last night in Los Angeles, which means the first social media reactions have started rolling in. And to absolutely nobody’s surprise, the initial response is over-the-top positive. Take a look below at some of the reactions from those lucky enough to be in attendance (spoiler-free, of course).

The scope of Avengers: Endgame is impossible to put into words. What Fiege & MCU achieved over last 10-years has lead to this gloriously masterful moment in cinema & it’s truly mind-blowing how beautifully paced this storytelling is. Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.

All I’m going to say about @Avengers #EndGame is that I am an emotional wreck and can’t stop crying

#AvengersEndgame is filled with so much comic book awesomeness that you may not be ready! Great blend of action, emotion and humor while keeping the stakes high throughout. Truly an achievement in blockbuster filmmaking.

Wow. #AvengersEndgame is staggering. It’s surprising in ways I never saw coming and satisfying in ways I didn’t realize I needed. It’s kind of the ultimate gift to fans of the MCU. It’s very long and has a few hiccups, but is everything you’re hoping for and more. pic.twitter.com/RO97kw9fs5

Man #AvengersEndgame kicked my ass. It was an epic conclusion to 11 years of films. It had laughs, incredible action and absolute emotional rollercoaster. It was the series finale for these cast of characters that I had been hoping for. Congrats to all for pulling off the feat.

#AvengersEndgame thoughts. Still processing: I laughed, I cried (multiple times), I screamed, but overall an EPIC ending to the Infinity Saga. #EndgamePremiereLA #Avengers #Endgame #whateverittakes

So I just saw #AvengersEndgame, and you guys aren’t ready for shiiiiit. All the theorizing didn’t prepare you for this. I cried a lot, I flung my hands in the air and screamed out loud. It’s incredible. #EndgamePremiereLA #Avengers #Endgame

As you can see, nearly 100% positive, only a few quasi-negative comments mixed in. While I recognize that won’t necessarily continue – I can guarantee Endgame will not have a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score (here’s looking at you, Armond White) – this is still about as good of a start as we could have hoped for.
The review embargo lifts later today, so if you’re inclined to read reviews before heading to the theater yourself, you’ll have your chance in a matter of hours. Just beware potential spoilers. If you’re waiting on my review, I’m going Thursday night and Friday morning, so I’m hoping for it to be out Friday afternoon.
