For what its worth, Avengers Infinity War only has a metascore of 68.
That's way off. IW is one of the best in the entire MCU.
I think we pretty much all agree, but this is a good example of how we often forget the initial reaction. A LOT of people were mad about how IW ended. People said they felt cheated because 10 years had led to that abrupt end. Others said that they didn't go see superhero movies to have to endure so dark and ending. Others felt it was cheap because deaths would be undone in the sequel. And of course there were the "not true to the comics" voices, as always.
I think the core Marvel fans were blown away to the highest degree and across as wide a population as possible, but that feeling was hardly universal. Over time the view as a masterpiece has won out, though.
