This was clearly a level-up from their first film. Although much more action-oriented, the production value still screams Marvel and what I liked most is the refinement of the collaborative action scenes.
Avengers: Age of Ultron
I liked plenty of the stuff in it but it was pretty much the same as the first movie. Still a good watch though if you're not looking for anything serious.
I see a lot of negative reviews directed at the humor in this movie. All I can say is that Marvel, since the beginning, has used this same format for their movies so I don't understand why "fans" are now criticizing the banter.
The only reason I can think of why someone would not like this movie is because they either have not seen the other films Marvel has released or they just don't understand how Marvel creates a film.
Plot line is far from the cliche superhero story. Scriptwriters did a great job inserting that original, witty Marvel humor in between scenes to dispel some of the seriousness that's usually accompanied in these types of films.
It's just what I feared. Marvel has gotten so caught up in making sure that each character gets some action time that there's no room now for character development. They need to tone it down a bit.
Don't be brainwashed. This is just a remix of the first Avenger movie. Nothing new here except for the new heroes but plot-wise it's pretty much the same thing.
Third viewing of this and while not the strongest within the MCU, or of the other Avenger movies, still has some good parts (introduction to Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch and Paul Bettany's Vision; further setting into motion the infinity stones, New Avengers, etc) while the plot as a whole felt messy at times. Still, found it entertaining especially seeing where the MCU was going since. 3.5/5
Cool seeing them all together again, even if I didn't massively enjoy it. It's good, nothing more or less in my opinion.
'Avengers: Age of Ultron' isn't too far off 2012's 'The Avengers', especially in terms of how I fell about it. I definitely wanted more from both, yet they are still satisfying superhero action flicks. I'd rank this narrowly below the aforementioned.
Robert Downey Jr. felt a little flat to me as Iron Man - he still has a decent amount of moments, just not as many as you get in his individual films. All the others continue to entertain to an equally sui... read the rest.
