	=== Box office ===		=== Box office ===
	It is ~~projected~~ that ''Minecraft: Nether Infinite'' ~~could be~~ a ~~successful movie~~ in the box office ~~because~~ of the film ~~series having multiple films~~ past the one ~~billion gross mark~~.		''Minecraft: Nether Infinite'' grossed $122 million in the United States and Canada and $1.301 billion in other territories for a worldwide total of $1.403 billion. It is the second highest grossing film in the ''Minecraft'' film series, coming short of ''Minecraft'' (2016). The film is placed second highest-grossing Minecraft film ever released.

			The film had a worldwide opening of $212 million, the biggest of the series and had nearly double of ''Minecraft'' (2016)'s previous record of $122 million.

			On October 14, 2024, the film's earnings at the global box office surpassed the theatrical run of ''Agent Derp'' and ''Minecraft: The Nether Wars''. It was the fastest film to gross $1 billion worldwide, reaching that threshold in 8 days.

			On May 4, the film's earnings at the global box office surpassed the theatrical run of ''Infinity War''. It was the fastest film to gross $2 billion worldwide, reaching that threshold in 11 days.

			=== Critical response ===
			''Minecraft: Nether Infinite'' recieved generally positive reviews from critics who praised the story though disliked the lack of originality and felt it took too much from ''Avengers: Infinity War'' (2018) in too many ways. The critics also mentioned the films lack of a proper ending, the first ''Minecraft'' based film to do so as previous films didn't end on a cliffhanger. Multiple critics predicted the major success in the box office whilst some doubted it'd reach the billion milestone.

			The critics praised Steve Stonecutter's character arc as a "powerful being without being too overpowered" and praised the fact it was done "really well done".

			Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reported an approval rating of 94%, with an average score of 8.2/10 based on 557 reviews. The website's critical consensus reads, "Exciting, entertaining, and emotionally impactful, ''Avengers: Endgame'' does whatever it takes to deliver a satisfying finale to Marvel's epic Infinity Saga." Metacritic (which uses a weighted average) gave the film a score of 78 out of 100 based on 57 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an A+ grade on an A+-to-F scale, the third Marvel film to receive the grade after ''The Avengers'' and ''Black Panther'' (2018). PostTrak audiences gave the film stars out of five and an 85-percent "definite recommend".

			Writing for NPR, Glen Weldon gave the film a positive review and found it a worthy sequel to its predecessor: "The Russos' decision to stick close to the experiences of the remaining Avengers proves a rewarding one, as they've expressly constructed the film as an extended victory lap for the Marvel Cinematic Universe writ large. Got a favorite character from any Marvel movie over the past decade, no matter how obscure? Prepare to get serviced, fan." In his ''Rolling Stone'' review, Peter Travers gave the film four stars out of five: "You don't have to make jokes about the clichéd time travel plot – the film is ready, willing and able to make its own, with ''Back to the Future'' coming in for a serious ribbing."

			Peter Debruge of ''Variety'' wrote, "After the must-see showdown that was ''Infinity War'', the Russo brothers deliver a more fan-facing three-hour follow-up, rewarding loyalty to Marvel Cinematic Universe." J. R. Kinnard of ''PopMatters'' wrote, "Big budget action filmmaking doesn't get much better than this." Todd McCarthy of ''The Hollywood Reporter'' said, "[W]hat comes across most strongly here, oddly enough for an effects-driven comic-book-derived film, is the character acting, especially from Downey, Ruffalo, Evans, Hemsworth, Brolin, and Paul Rudd". Richard Roeper, writing for the ''Chicago Sun-Times'', gave the film four stars and praised its "emotional punch" and the "funny, well-paced, smart, expertly rendered screenplay by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, crisp direction from Anthony Russo and Joe Russo, [...] and the universally stellar performances".

			''The New York Times'' reviewer A. O. Scott gave the film a positive-but-guarded review: "''Endgame'' is a monument to adequacy, a fitting capstone to an enterprise that figured out how to be good enough for enough people enough of the time. Not that it's really over, of course: Disney and Marvel are still working out new wrinkles in the time-money continuum. But the Russos do provide the sense of an ending, a chance to appreciate what has been done before the timelines reset and we all get back to work." Justin Chang of the ''Los Angeles Times'' wrote that "''Avengers: Endgame'' achieves and earns its climactic surge of feeling, even as it falls just short of real catharsis". Some called the film a notable improvement over its predecessor, ''Avengers: Infinity War'', including Brian Tallerico of ''RogerEbert.com'': ''Endgame'' is "a more patient, focused film [than ''Infinity War''], even as its plot draws in elements of a dozen other movies." Matt Zoller Seitz (also of ''RogerEbert.com'') compared the film positively to ''Infinity War'', which he considered "too crowded, too rushed and yet too long". Seitz called ''Endgame'' "a heartfelt and satisfying experience" and a "surprisingly relaxed, character-driven, self-aware yet sincere comedy [for] two-thirds of [the film]. Much of the script suggests a laid-back Richard Linklater movie with superheroes". Joe Morgenstern of ''The Wall Street Journal'' cited ''Avengers: Endgame'' as the conclusion of the Infinity Saga, calling the final battle "inevitably unwieldy [...] but thrilling all the same, and followed by a delicate coda. So many stories. So many adventures. So much to sort out before the next cycle starts."

			Richard Brody was more critical of the film in ''The New Yorker'', saying that its good acting was not matched by comparable skill from its directors: "The Russos have peculiarly little sense of visual pleasure, little sense of beauty, little sense of metaphor, little aptitude for texture or composition; their spectacular conceit is purely one of scale, which is why their finest moments are quiet and dramatic ones". Anthony Lane of ''The New Yorker'' gave the film a negative review, finding it overdeveloped and overwrought: "The one thing you do need to know about ''Avengers: Endgame'' is that it runs for a little over three hours, and that you can easily duck out during the middle hour, do some shopping, and slip back into your seat for the climax. You won't have missed a thing."

			=== Background ===
			In June 2014, [[Mojang]] were discussing film rights agreements and ultimately decided to give Mob Productions rights to make four film based on Minecraft, leading to the release of ''Minecraft'' (2016), ''[[Minecraft: Block Wars]]'' (2019), ''[[Agent Derp (2021 film)\|Agent Derp]]'' (2021), and ''[[Minecraft: The Nether Wars]]'' (2023). [[Freddie Goodwin]] joined the project and after the major success of the film and helped produce the other three films. After the contract concluded, Mob Productions wasn't able to negotiate deals due to a lack of budget, forcing Mob Productions to leave the project.

			Shortly after departing the project, Mob Productions approached [[Legendary Pictures]] about helping get two more films made in the series to help conclude the story to which they felt was fair. Mojang at first refused to allow more films to be made due to the lack of "ideas", however Legendary Pictures purchased the rights until 2025.

	Gustin, who previously voiced Steve Stonecutter in the first four films opened up about being replaced and said "I am extremely excited to see where the story goes and have full hopes in Jack Black in taking the role higher!"
