Perks of working in the cinema
Ehh, a bit hit and miss. They start off incredibly menacing and holy ****, done really well, like I said the opening is incredible, but you don't see how they are individually until they're all sent out to find the stones. Ebony Maw in New York is bloody great, he can hold his own easily and makes Doctor Strange look an amateur. He's clearly the best and most well done, I'm surprised Hot Toys din't choose to showcase him first. He's like a weird preaching, magic using menacing character. Black Dwarf oddly has the next amount of screen time, he's literally just a creature that smashes things, I can't even remember if he speaks. He's a bit shallow in that regard. Corvus Glaive was incredibly disappointing, unless you want spoilers, I don't want to go overly spoiler specific, he does have some nice moments, but in truth I thought he was going to be this badass character, I think he was severely underused and underplayed. And Proxima Midnight? May as well have not even been in the film, absolutely wasted character, no great moment in the film at all. They could have been done a lot better in regard to actually making Proxima Midnight formidable instead of just a forgettable and underused foe, and Corvus could have been done better I feel, he was almost there. To be honest if it was just Ebony Maw getting all the black Orders' screen time I would have been happier. But also, a lot of screen time went towards Thanos, and it was worth it.
If you guys are happy with me tagging a spoiler post with more specifics I'm happy to.
And yes, Thanos does live up to the hype. I've not seen BP yet, but from the very beginning, you're aware Thanos A has the strength and presence to **** the Avengers up, but B also that he's not a run of the mill villain, he means business and he has a reason.
