Well, I can see how this became the highest grossing film of the year, and one of the highest grossing ever, it's just fun. The Dark Knight Rises tried to hard and had that horrible ending, The Avengers never takes itself too seriously. If you read most of my reviews, I don't like popcorn flicks a whole lot. I tend to gravitate towards more serious fare, but this was what every summer blockbuster should aspire to. I've never been a huge fan of The Hulk, but Mark Ruffalo made me fan, at least of his portrayal and of course Robert Downey, Jr. is amazing. A smart, well-made, and fun superhero movie.

As awesome as everyone says it is. All the actors are great especially Robert Downy Jr. I would suggest watching the heroes original movies(Hulk, Falcon, Thor,etc.) though because I didn't and missed some story details. Very good and funny!

Best summer escapism of 2012

Directed by Joss Whedon

Starring Robert Downey Jr, Mark Ruffalo, Hemsworth.

Grade: B-

You are sure to take entertainment from this, because Joss Whedon's avengers gives everything a summer movie should. It has lot of smashing popcorn stuff during the final twenty minutes. All superheroes (for one particular reason no Spiderman) are here fighting alien ships and small outer world soldiers. The best thing about this movie is hulk. His character works and some nice witty dialogs for him. The big cloth washing fight is seriously funny. It has a repetitive value. Everyone in here take their roles and heat up when action kicks in.

There is nothing much in terms of plot, but to put it simple, I say it is a war movie between alien world and earth. Nick Fury(Samuel Jackson) meets Loki...

Fans of this film will not like this review

A few of the loyal readers of my reviews have been busten' them on my thoughts of the most anticipated superhero movie of the year. Hear it is however you might be a shad dissapointed cause i surely was!! Zzzzzzz!! the storyline was incredibly boring. Now i know a lot of my mates will state that i'm not a comic book fan or something, that couldn't be more further from the truth. I had the same feelings with '78's Superman The Movie starring Christopher Reeve although i preferred the sequel. The same goes for Chris Nolan's 'Batman Begins' i liked the sequel and the thrid instalment better. Maybe this will be the same continuing pattern for any sequel slated for 'The Avengers'??

I thought about my probelms with this fim and what it all comes down too is too much unessecary dialogue. M...

Awesome movie Ever

Well first of all i didn't know if i would like this movie. My cousin saw this movie and told me it was awesome. So i thought well if my cousin loved this movie i would to and i was right. i saw this movie three times in the movie theater. And each time i fell more in love with it.

I like the characters in this movie and how they end up being a good team. I really like iron man because i think Robbert Downey j. is an amazing actor and he is really funny and sarcastic so his quotes in this movie are great.
I also like Thor in this movie. Well enough of me liking the actors in this movie .

I think this movie has enough action and it keeps you interested in the things that are happening in it.

Well this is a spoiler so if you didn't watch this movie don't read on

but my jaw ...

The avengers is a wholesome gift for summer movie goers. There are lot of action set pieces, some hard hitting dialogs and great super hero the HULK in it, We get the best HULK smash in the film. Iron man is another cool character performed by Downey Jr. He and Ruffalo share excellent screen space understanding each other and arguing at times.

Great news, Joss Whedon is coming back to write and direct The Avengers 2 (plus a TV series?!)


http://www.thewrap.com/mo vies/column-post/joss-whe don-signed-direct-write-a vengers-2-51101


Color me happy - I thought the dialogue and interaction between characters was one of the best thing about The Avengers, and Whedon is great at that kind of thing. The series is in good hands, and though it's still quite a ways away, I'm already anticipating the results (don't know about this TV series yet).

Now if they can only get The Dark Tower back up and running... but that's another topic.
