The Beauty Salon Special Service 4New Yorkerreviewed Avengers: Infinity Warand people are not having it. At all.
The New Yorkermovie reviewer Richard Brody wasn't a big fan of Infinity War, with one of his biggest grievances being that it relied too much on the groundwork set in the movies that came before it. Considering Infinity Warwas advertised as a culmination of 10 years of Marvel movies, the internet was understandably unhappy with Brody's criticism.
SEE ALSO: 'Avengers: Infinity War' is less than the sum of its partsHere's the crux of Brody's review that has the internet in a tizzy:
Avengers: Infinity Warwould make little sense in the absence of its pack of predecessors. Its characters aren’t introduced; they just show up, and their behavior is entirely defined by the template set for them in other movies. Not only does Avengers: Infinity Warpresume that viewers have seen all the preceding films in the Marvel series but, worse, it presumes that they’ve thought about them afterward.
People took to Twitter to make fun of Brody's criticism, likening him to complaining about starting any series at all on anything except the first movie or season.

Unfortunately for Brody, the movie didn't include a "Previously in the Marvel Cinematic Universe" montage of some of the key moments from previous movies that led up Infinity War, but then again neither did Lord of the Rings: Return of the Kingor any other movie sequel.

If you're gonna review a sequel, maybe you should watch the movies that came before it next time.
