Overall, I thought it was excellent and a great ending to an epic saga. Living up to the hype of a 22 movie story was going to be impossible in my opinion, but I thought the movie was highly entertaining especially the final hour and it delivered more emotion than I thought it would be able to do going in.
Plot was a bit paint by numbers and time travel almost always creates plot issues whether actual or perceived, but neither of those points took anything away from the movie for me.
Nitpicking here but two minor things stood out to me:
1) It felt like no-stones Thanos did as good of a job against if not a better job against Thor, Iron Man, and Captain American (with Thor's hammer) than 4-stones Thanos did against a lesser team in the last movie. I get that Thanos is a badass either way, but it just seemed a little off to me. After watching no-stones Thanos in Endgame, power stone Thanos should have wrecked everyone without much effort in Infinity War, in my opinion.
2) I was hoping for a heavier burden for Star-Lord to have to carry after his actions in Infinity War. I know he lost "girlfriend" Gamora for "reboot" Gamora, but she was dead either way in the last movie. Hopefully they explore that emotional baggage and/ or lack of trust his teammates have for him more in Guardians movies. The Russos suggested in interviews that he would have to deal with his actions.
