The film is based on characters from the , such as Iron Man and . The film is set in different places, including where the Avengers try to get back the magic Stones. The action happensE in different years because the Avengers travel back in time. This film has an excellent cast. There are a lot of lead actors, including Robert Downey Jr., who stars as Iron Man, and Scarlett Johansson, whoL plays the role of Black Widow. She’s my favourite character – she’s a spy who’s also an athlete, a gymnast and a martial arts expert. Avengers: Endgame is ideal for people who like action films, especially those who enjoyed the other Avengers films. It’s quite long butP you never get bored, and there are some scenes which will really surprise you. I definitely recommend this film!
