Alrighty guys its the start of the summer movie rush. Which means its time for me to start reviewing shit again. And what better way to start things off then with the Avengers. First of all wow, what a great movie. It was just great like really great. Honestly its one of the best if not THE BEST comic book movie I've ever seen. And as anyone can tell you (Mik, Lups, Ringo) I am a huge comic book nerd. Okay with that being said lets get into it. Story- The movie did a great job with the story. It had everything you would have expected, action, drama and comedy. Being a Whedon production you can be sure you're going to get something great here. If you were a fan of Buffy and Firefly you'll love this movie. If you are a fan of Avengers you will be glad that he did the movie proud. The movie never felt too cluttered, nor did it feel like it was rushing through it to the end. It also never made me lose my attention. It is so easy for movies to have that down point between action scenes when it seems like things just drag on as they try their feeble attempt at characterization. This is espcially true of comic book movies (Transformers ROTF, and The Dark Knight comes to mind). Here however you won't feel bored by any scene as the story seemlessly goes from action scene to non action scene. And there's always a joke being thrown out and the one liners are great. There's a particular one about Cap getting a joke. Without giving away too much of the plot I will say this one thing about it. You need to see Iron Man 1,2, Thor, Captain America, and The Incredible Hulk (Not Hulk) to fully understand the plot. Anyone going into this without having seen these things will be lost, though I don't know who hasn't seen these movies you must've been living under a rock. Characters- The characters were great as well. Each one got their due to be bad ass and each one had a reason for wanting to fight. The character's interaction with one another was great as well. Just as you would expect from each one of them based on their established films. Not one of them has changed drastically to the point that you wonder if they are different actors. Tony Stark is an asshole here just like in his two movies. Cap really has this entire fish out of water thing going on. Thor is just as honorable as he was when his film ended and Hulk still smashes shit. Stand out though is Nick Fury, lets just say the beginning of the film establishes his bad assness. But what can you expect when Samuel L. Jackson the most bad ass mother fucker ever in real life is playing the most bad ass mother fucker in comic books. Loki was alot better here than he was in Thor. He was really given more to do and he even came across as a little unhinged by what happened in Thor. He made for an excellent villain. Action- The action sequences here were great. Especially the climax of the film when all the heroes finally Assemble. The scenes flow freely and the way each battle scene interchange with the next is perfect. Though it may seem so from the previews the battles are never bloated or crowded and you can always tell whats going on. This made it easy to follow while still being very epic in their own right. The fight scene between the actual Avengers are awesome too, and not one person fights above what their power grade should be. In other words you won't be seeing Captain America over powering an Asgardian God or anything. Its kept in the relative relm of the reality established by the movies and comic books themselves. Overall- What else can I say that I haven't already said. This movie was great and a great way to kick off the summer. Though I hate to say this, but I don't think its going to get any better. I don't see The Dark Knight Rises or the Amazing Spider-Man topping this. I'll give the Avengers 5 HULK SMASH! out of 5 |
