This film is nowhere near bad but not close to amazing. The great character moments, the humor and charm, the big crazy action sequences are all amazing. The film's plot has an interesting premise but it doesn't do much with it. The darker tone it was intended to have is thrown out the window and even though Ultron was a very likable villain, but the plot was very stereotypical and lacked any real depth. There is way too much going on with many different sub plots and some random romance that comes out of nowhere is thrown in your face. The film drags on drastically long as well. Overall a lot of mixed feeling. A lot of good and a lot of bad. I recommend watching it however it's definitely a blast to watch. Expand

I remember finding Ultron very annoying and the pacing very rushed, but now I relly enjoyed him and the pacing, while still rushed, flowed a lot better.

The biggest problems are that the third act is a bit hard to follow and, worst of all, the stupid Hulk and Natasha romance. What were they thinking?

However, it also has some of my favorite MCU moments. The party sequence is amazing. Just the Avengers hanging out and being friends is wonderful to see. Hawkeye steals the show and becomes a much more interesting character. And the nightmare sequences are honestly terrifying.

It's messy, but more consistently enjoyable than I first gave it credit for.

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.

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.

The Incredible Hulk isn't very Incredible.
Edward Norton gives a good performance but the concept of Hulk itself just seems tired. There is no new outlook on the hero just simply a repeatedly mediocre take on a very one dimensiona

I had high hopes for the movie but they were totally crashed to the ground.
It's a completely disaster at every part nor the one. The whole scenes look like hell. Inappropriate dialogues, useless fighting battles, new un fully discovered heroes, childish jokes which seem really silly. In addition we have awful script which doesn't give logical answers to many things by the end of a film.
Of course the CGI effects may seem to be fine and you will enjoy a few picturesque scenes but even that can not help the movie to go on high-hope experience.
Looks like JW is done by playing the main role in making the new Marvel universe. I guess, this is not his blame while we can point freely on the policy of Marvel.
Eventually, you will be disappointed for sure, if you are not a little kid with no brains at all. It is very sad, that the sequel could not beat the first one. It gives nothing new but takes everything good we had.

Ultron comes and goes in this movie and with each screen appearance you understand the character less and less. A bit frightening in his screen debut, he goes through daddy issues to end up patheticaly. Despite Spader's voice, Ultron has been handled in this movie poorly. As all (or almost all) of the characters to be fair. This movie feels like Iron Man 3.5 with too much focus around Stark, Whedon's pat on the back to Renner - "sorry for the first movie, in this one you'll be important. Don't care whether is makes sense", romance between Banner and Romanov is... well, as many have stated before me - dull and plain stupid.
But! The movie is not bad - the effects are great, some of the fights are handled great and a few lines are worth mentioning. As a standalone it can defend itself. As a sequel it fails miserably. For the Marvel Cinematic Universe Avengers: Age of Ultron could not exist. It wouldn't change much. Maybe it would be fot the best...

The last 50 minutes are quite a lot better, though, with great action and excitement on display. Nonetheless, the flaws found all over the first hour 20 are still found in this portion of the film; ranging from a bad script, to an uninteresting story, ponderous acting and pointless branching to the wider Marvel universe — with the film’s length far too long. It’s not completely rubbish, but…

Just stick with Avengers Assemble.

54/100.

I wanted to like this movie, honestly. But Marvel has become too big for its own good.
In a few years, this will be the movie people point to when they say 'this is where it took a nose dive".
Like Amazing Spider-man 2, there are too many characters and too much back-story that the director/writer tried to cram into here. What could have been a good development story for the main cast turned into a muddled affair of branched sequel set-ups for future movies.
That's all Marvel has become honestly. The character development happens in the stand alone movies for good reason - they are the only focus.
Maybe instead of messing with TV-like stories and cameos, Marvel should focus on character development only with one character at a time. This one could have been about Iron Man only, but instead it turned into multiple characters having flashbacks/flash forwards that it's hard to keep straight.
Honestly I hope Marvel universe gets back to the normal stuff, like developing one character at a time.
Also, same formula here for the first Avengers (bad guy steals something, beats the good guys once, twice, and the third time the good guys win!), although they added two characters to help the bad guy, then turn tail once they realize the motive.
In summary, worth a rent to keep the story straight for later movies (and the expanded Marvel universe), but not worth the theater screening. Skip it and wait for DVD. See Mad Max instead.

Even though CGI is pretty good it still looks unrealistic, yeh that's cgi that whole city going up, yep all the avengers fighting that's all computer stuff. Some of it is just over the top, if the whole earth went to work to build a flying city they would take ten years just to plan it. Yes this is all fantasy stuff, but we like to see some semblance of reality that's why I remember the house in the country scene more than most of the other stuff. Ultron didn't impress me for some reason as a super robot that is, and the guy he was building, ultra ultron was well, what was he? I thought ultrons face movements when speaking looked too much like plastic moving. Ultron wants to destroy mankind, why? we do enough of that already why not change us into a race of robots, I thought the premise was lame. If I was hulk I would have taken Natasha with me and kept the plane. I think this movie was too much like too much chocolate, it tastes good at the start then just gets sickly sweet, should have made two movies out of it. Expand

It was also hard to take the villain seriously when he's voiced by Robert "Lizard King" California.

5/10 for Painfully Average Action Flick. Not something you wanna watch more than once. In fact, I started writing this review with 35 minutes left because it felt like I had already seen everything the movie had to offer. I was getting so tired of the mindless action scenes towards the end that I almost fell asleep.

In an
Being the sequel to the biggest superhero movie of all time is not an easy thing to be. Meeting the expectations and demands of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, of dedicated fans, and the general movie-going public is no easy task.

In an ambitious effort to top the previous Avengers movie, Joss Whedon packed around 5 different big-budget action sequences in Age of Ultron. The blockbuster action felt epic in the trailers and promos, but somehow lackluster in the actual movie (probably because we are bombarded with too much of it). Watching this superhero extravaganza, I felt that the filming style was gimmicky (camera turning around 360 to show way too many things going on at once).

Even with its 2 and a half hour run time, AoU has a rushed pace, and not enough time is given to the characters and audience to dwell on what is going on. There’s so much ground to cover in this sequel that the movie struggles to find room. The movie glosses over the Scarlet Witch-induced hallucinations that the Avengers suffer, the “Infinity Well” (where Thor learns of setup for Phase 3 and the Infinity War), and the fact that SHIElD is back, but with no mention of the rival factions within it (shown on Agents Of SHIELD).

Everything and nothing is at stake in AoU. After all, it’s obvious going into the theater that only one or two of our heroes will die--because most of the Avengers have more movies that they’re contracted to star in. Plus, Disney benefits far too much because of the MCU to kill off a money-making character. Knowing this, what is the point of making movies where the entire planet is in danger, yet not a single civilian gets killed on-screen and almost none of the Avengers are ever in real jeopardy? The comedic timing of the film is also off, as too many jokes and quips are made at inappropriate times, and this contributes to a lack of tension in the movie.

None of the acting is noteworthy or remarkable, but the conflict of ideologies between Tony and Cap was interesting to me and a natural progression of their characters (also setting up the two for Captain America 3: Civil War). I appreciated the camaraderie that the Avengers had in the Avengers Tower party scene, as it humanizes Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. I personally didn’t like the romantic relationship between Bruce and Natasha--none of the previous films, including this one, set them up as a couple--and yet they’re talking about abandoning the team and running away together after defeating Ultron?

Bruce’s inner demons are starting to feel tedious to watch, especially in the way it was handled. *SPOILER ALERT* He very unceremoniously leaves the team in a quinjet. And Natasha has now flirted (or at least had moments of romantic playfulness) with Tony, Cap, Hawkeye, and the Hulk. That seems kind of insulting to her character. (However, I do like that AoU delved into Black Widow’s dark past.) Hawkeye gets some love, but I still don’t think it was enough.

*SPOILER ALERT* Of all the characters to kill off, the end of a recently introduced and supporting character is somewhat disappointing--especially how it was handled. We barely got time to be introduced to Quicksilver, but he is killed anyway. His final words are “Bet you didn’t see that coming”, but many had already predicted his death. (Was Quicksilver killed simply for shock effect, or because his character was too weak to compete against the one from X: Men DOFP?) The Vision, Quicksilver, and Scarlet Witch are all undeveloped (Scarlet Witch feels way too much like Carrie; from the horror movie).

Ultron is “not as scary as the Winter Soldier, or as interesting and entertaining as Loki, or as ominous as hyper-intelligent Ava from Ex Machina.” He doesn’t do anything actually useful with all of the power he supposedly has (no hacking, no using nukes?). AoU’s Ultron is a far cry from the comics, where he’s apparently a “hyper-intelligent and adaptable being”. The father son relationship between Stark and Ultron that could have been, isn’t. “We aren’t given any time for him and Stark to form a relationship that could later turn to hatred. There is never that process that allows us to accept Ultron first as Stark’s ‘child’ and then as his antagonist.” Considering the love-hate relationship between Hank Pym and Ultron is a key part of his character in the comics (which I haven’t read but know enough about), AoU is a letdown in that regard. (And the way he is defeated is pretty lame.)
Age of Ultron could've have definitely been a much better movie. Instead of leaving people wanting more, Joss Whedon has left most wanting less. The action gets too thick and makes the movie feel bloated; too many one-liners are said at impromptu times. Cap and Iron Man are the most interesting characters, but the rest fall flat. Whedon "simply has too many balls to keep in the air for one movie—even a two-and-a-half-hour one.” In interviews, Whedon has said that he feels burned out by his responsibilities in the MCU. Him leaving the property is probably the best for all of us.

The first one had its issues, but at least it was novel; we hadn't seen anything like it. Age of Ultron throws a lot of stuff at you, but it all feels regurgitated from the first one, and overly commercialized, with product placements galore. Joss Whedon's gone corporate.

There are so many characters that the few attempts at development aren't successful. The camp of it, the fake-looking CGI and the very comic book-y costumes, just doesn't play that well any more. And guess what, there are some more MacGuffins coming!

The titular villain never really leaves a mark, simply for screen time issues. Not that James Spader isn't entertaining, but if you want a real exploration of AI, check out Ex Machina. This movie tries to leverage the idea, but there isn't enough substance there. There are also a lot of people doing fake Russian accents at this point, which is not good.

On the positive side, every now and then there's a laugh line, and the setup for a civil war between the superheroes suggests that maybe future movies will have some more intrigue. Who are you rooting for? This one's mostly just CGI battles. It feels like filler. For a movie that cost almost $300 million, that isn't good enough.

Also, one female character is briefly captured and spends approximately five minutes of screen time not kicking ass, and a female and male character talk equally about how they want to have children and can't, so therefore this movie is a misogynistic rant from noted misogynist Joss Whedon, and if you watch it Marvel Studios will take away women's right to vote and institute mandatory sexual slavery of all women at every Marvel-watching household in the world. Or not.
(No, seriously, some people are attacking this movie because of these minor inoffensive plot points. Look it up.)

I know the movie was a action movie, but it has to be one of the shallowest marvel movies I have seen in a long time, the First Hulk movie, may have been a good comparison. the heavy was pretty uninspiring the script was down right corny to me. The movie, just never pulled me in, thru the action or the acting. Not to mention this movie was borderline rated G, definitely made for people under the age of 10 years old I am afraid. This movie was made more for children and less for adults, borderline Disney movie. Nothing close to the last X-men, movie etc. Very carebearish movie.

good to take the kids to, but if your an adult and even a fan of the Avengers, comics, don't have great expectation, lower your standards and it will be a nice waste of time.
Since my kids will be adults by the time the next Avengers, comes out this will be my last avengers movie I goto the theater to see.

Spader's cast of Ultron's voice might be the only brilliant thing... and the fight between Hulk and Iron Man.

It feels like they wanted to put as many things as possible to make a "popcorn" movie... is Whedon using M. Bay's recipies ?

In terms of story, nothing is accomplished here, the stakes are not that high because we all know that no one of importance will die or else there wouldn't be a dozen more of these movies, the humor and quips are fine at first but after awhile it just seems forced and when the tone is set for seriousness it's jarring to see jokes in every line of dialogue. Another problem in the movie is also Marvel's biggest weakness, Villains. Ultron, while brilliantly played by James Spader seemed like a threat at first but he and his army of disposable robots are defeated very easily even when some of our heroes only have a Bow and Arrow or Pistols. The film's story regresses as it goes on, taking breaks between plot progressions even when there is no action, trailer like scenes are inserted in the 2nd and 3rd acts to set up the next 4 of these movies and doing so just takes away the story of this movie and makes it seem like $330 million dollar preview of coming (and distant) attractions. Very sad time to go in a Marvel movie with expectations especially after the raising of the bar thanks to Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy, like i said this movie should have been a step forward in the franchise but it took 2 steps back instead.

Disappointing. Very disappointing.There are many flaws to this film.

The narrative is something to behold. They had the ability to make it so interesting but they chose to force the plot instead of building it up as a result of the previous films. Where in the Avengers you could tell that it was the culmination of the phase 1 Marvel films, this film tries and fails to set itself up because there is no progression from the Phase 2 films. Everything in this film felt rushed. There is absolutely no reason for Ultron to be in the film, he exists purely as a generic villain for the team to fight. I feel as if they wasted the potential for the Ultron story line. I won't go into details because I don't want to spoil anything but all I can say was that the pacing and story did not suspend my belief enough to think that the events of the film could actually happen.

The action is amazing as always and the effects are spot on but compared to the first movie or ANY movie from the 2nd phase (even Thor 2), this movie just doesn't live up to the name. It just seems rushed to be honest and that the only reason for this film to exist is to serve as a bridge to phase 3.This is a 2nd film in a series so I hope that the 3rd is WAY better.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So I suppose I should start this with saying that the Avengers movies never clicked with me. It's not that I thought they were bad, I just never saw what made them so huge to others. So I don't think I would have been a fan anyway, but considering previous Marvel movies this one fell short in many ways. The biggest problem is that the movie is all action, little story or character development.

Maybe this would have been better as a 3+ hour monster, with more time, more focus on the characters their decisions would have felt more real. There are two things that bugged me the most:

1) Hulk and Black Widow romance. It just comes completely out of nowhere. If it would have ended with Black Widow and Hulk running away at the end then the plot line would have had some weight, but as it is I think it will all be forgotten in the next movies and made pointless.

2) The Twins turn good moment. I can understand them turning against Ultron. But they spent half of their lives wanting to kill Tony Stark. They tried to tear the Avengers apart, all the damage Hulk did could really be laid at Scarlet Witch's feet. After all that they just easily accept her?

With more character time all these problems could have been solved (perhaps) but as it is the movie feels rushed.

With that said I could still see many people giving it a higher score as it does still have that Marvel humor and plenty of cool scenes to enjoy. For me the negatives drag it down.

Hear me out. I’d take this advice before diving in.

You fanboys need to apply some Bengay to your anal cavities, like, a fistful. Many of you, in spite of pleading levelheadedness, will still be butt hurt by the ghastly, blaspheming I am about to commit on your figurehead God of blockbuster entertainment and I wouldn’t want your inflamed buttocks to blossom into a full on hemorrhoidal ****

I say this because I care.

Age of Ultron is a mess. It’s a blockbuster that confounds, feeling simultaneously bloated and fatally undernourished. If anything, it serves as a strong testament to an ongoing and fatally regressive refusal to capitalize on the massive emotional invest a good majority of the public has in these films by taking serious dramatic risks. Big-budget escapism will never die, so long as intellectual pandering continues to be the most effective pheromone luring the mindless drones to the multiplex. This latest Avengers entry isn’t guilty of all that I condemn most populist entertainment, mainly because there is a team of resilient artists with integrity fighting for control of this project. This odd meeting of genuine talent and ambition with the compromise and sacrifice that comes with mounting a 200+ million dollar tentpole has processed Age of Ultron a confounding concoction. It shows signs of fleeting life in passages, but is at nearly every turn bullied into submission by established parameters dictating the film be palatable before it be good.

This franchise has already set the stage for an endless churn of films that are at war with being less brand-entry and more standalone, but there's one thing that has been consistent with all Marvel films that tattoo this monotony on each work: None of the primary characters are susceptible to the loom of mortality. For a superhero series, one that frequents in thrusting it’s characters in preposterously harrowing situations, it eliminates the concept of stakes altogether. Even though the effects and action choreography occasionally stumbles and conveys kinetic thrills in spite of itself, I found myself constantly pulled out of the moment by the nagging realization that none of this violence serves a purpose, or ever will, until, like this series, it is acknowledged that it's characters can die.

When Age of Ultron isn’t bombarding you with diverting action, it’s characters are interacting, which is almost worse than the nihilistic fight-scenes. EVERY OTHER LINE OF DIALOGUE IN THIS FILM IS A CATCHPHRASE. There are intermittent highs that rescue these playful, cheesy jabs from resulting in complete cinematic flatlining; just when the ordeal feels ready to capsize through a barrage of one-liners and turn me off entirely, Whedon and co inject a playfully off-kilter segment or a split-second visual gag that actually works. Nonetheless, my cringe face got quite the workout watching Age of Ultron. I’m fine with Marvel's light, easygoing tone, but the reality of the film fringes on collapsing on numerous occasions because Tony Stark can’t have a conversation without punning it up. What a dick.

These blunders made in Age of Ultron are reprehensible enough, but my primary issue with the new Avengers is it's jumbled, frenetically conducted rhythm. Nearly EVERY transition is tainted by a transparent, gaping wound - plot holes of an enormity so egregious that each venue feels teetering of the edge of complete derailment. Whedon HAD to make compromises in order to condense his latest staggering behemoth into a franchise-loyal, cohesive(ish) tentpole centerpiece, while simultaneously retaining his integrity, allowing for legitimate personality to seep through the cracks of his latest high-budget, crowd-drawing effort. Age of Ultron is an immense, seven-course meal and Whedon had the task of delivering the dish, which by no means could be safely digested without unbuckling your waist and allowing your protruding bulge to breathe. Not a particularly attractive look.

To resist stagnancy and stifling billow, he surgically extracted every scene that didn’t warrant it's absolute necessity. This may sound like he has crafted a lean, carefully honed film, free of needless indulgence. He has not. Instead, Whedon got shaky hands on the operating table and ripped out scenes that, though not eventful enough to justify their existence entirely, were ESSENTIAL elements of cohesion and overall flow. I’ll list of a couple instances; if I regurgitated every gap of consistency, I’d be risking redundancy (which Whedon showed little regard for) and stretching my memory thin:

How did Bruce find Natasha imprisoned by Ultron, why was he not guarding her, and why was she not just killed in the first place? (he wasn’t holding her for strategic ransom or anything). How the **** did Thor know when to come back to resurrect Vision during the scuffle in the lab and what happened with him in the pool of water? (this segment feels completely incoherent, not redeemable IMO).

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a fan of Marvel, i was waiting for this new release and although it wasn't bad, it was kind of a disappointment compared to the first one. I saw it in IMAX for the first time and it's a great experience but the 3D is unecessary...First of all, a honorary mention to the brilliant voice of James Spader who actually made me believe that Ultron was real, he was the perfect choice but unfortunately the problem is that this villain simply doesn't have personality and his plans were confusing that no one really understand why he was doing that, a total flop! Even if they add new characters, there was no development at all. The movie had great humor without being forced and visually is brilliant with fantastic action scenes but the whole thing is just another copy from the first one...I hated the romance between Black Widow and Banner, it was so childish and painful to watch. The addition of Hawkeye's family was nothing special, total waste of time, it just seems pointless. They really needed to cut some scenes because it were super boring especially those in the farm...The Twins were fine, but the typical "the villain is horrible so lets be good" is already wasted. About the cast, Downey Jr. doing his thing, already annoys me, Stark's arrogance it was cool at the beggining but now it's just stupid. Evans was ok, nothing new and Hemsworth's Thor was just to give some comic relief. Bettany's Vision seems really good, probably the thing that i got most excited about it. Just like i said, Johansson and Ruffalo were completly ruined by that ridiculous "chemistry"...And i hope to see more of Jackson's Nick Fury because everytime he appears, he steals the show. I think this is probably one of the worst movies by Marvel and in my opinion only shows us that Whedon doesn't have nothing new to give us, that's why they already replaced him for the next Avengers...

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go horribly wrong and it's up to the Avengers to stop the evil Ultron from enacting his terrible plans.

The opening action scene shows our heroes taking out a HYDRA base to recover Loki's sceptre. The reason i mention this scene is because it sets the style for what's to come. Visually this fast paced cg single shot felt messy and more comparable to a video game cut scene rather than a 250 million dollar Hollywood blockbuster. Later the Hulk and Iron Man's Hulkbuster cause city damage of 9/11 proportions, and not much discussion about the consequences. Also with the camera being so close to the lightning quick action, it was difficult to know what was happening with bodies and debris flying everywhere. The third act is centred around a city ripped from the Earth, with flying battles between Ultron's minions, Iron Man and S.H.I.E.L.D's hellicarrier (don't ask me where that came from after the events of Winter Soldier)

The character development in Age of Ultron feels inconsistent with the rest of the franchise. The events of Iron Man 3 and Winter Soldier seem to have been brushed aside as Tony Stark and Captain America look and sound better than ever, no traces of the doubt and confusion they went through. We spend some time with Ulysses Klaw in South Africa but it's all too short. Newcomers Scarlet Witch and her brother Quicksilver debut with accents and all. The brother's death is certainly emotional but fell flat considering Aaron Taylor-Johnson didn't grab my attention during his screen time. Paul Bettany's Vision is introduced late but to great effect, his power and abilities matching those of his peers.

The more interesting moments of the film was an attempt at giving some emotion and story to characters like Hawkeye and Black Widow, but the latter's romance with the Bruce Banner comes out of nowhere and feels rushed. Some hints at what's to come in Civil War are placed around the film that are absorbing, but aren't fleshed out despite over 2 and a half hours runtime. Any animosity we witness between Stark and Cap is pretty much ignored by the end.

Don't worry, there are plenty of quips and explosions for people who came for quips and explosions. Even James Spader's Ultron (at times menacing and intriguing as a robot planning to destroy humanity) is presented as a wisecracking (that's right, wisecracking) sentinel due to being born from Tony Stark's ambitions. Tense scenes are oddly interrupted with typical Whedon humour that begins to feel tiresome. The party scene early on is ideal for all that, and i enjoyed the banter among God like superheroes trying to be social.

Now even though i had a good time in a turn-my-brain-off kind of way, and nothing felt horrible or insulting like oh i don't know cough Iron Man 3 cough, the whole experience was more going through the motions rather than the spectacle i hoped for. It's still popcorn fun but predictable. Rather than moving forward, Age of Ultron feels like Marvel saying, "Nah, i'm ok here, thanks". With Joss Whedon stepping down due to his self confessed exhaustion and the Russo Brothers taking over for Infinity War, the time is right for change, because Marvel's cinematic universe shows signs of going stale.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bland story, numerous plot holes, and by-the-book action scenes make this film one of the least compelling or interesting in the franchise. The only fun part about this film is the action scenes but even the final action scene is boring because we saw a similar fight scene in the original Avengers film. The story was horribly rushed with new characters being introduced far too often, often with little to no explanation. The main villain, Ultron, is possibly the lamest antagonist I have ever seen, his constant singing of Pinocchio's I've Got No Strings only makes me feel like I'm watching a child friendly A Nightmare on Elm Street. The only thing that kept me going were two things; the intense and violent action scenes, and the investment into this series that began back in 2008. This is a fun film to watch, but don't expect it too surpass any other Avengers film, The Incredible Hulk was funner to watch. Expand

The movieIn all honesty, while everyone was concerned about "Ant-Man" being Marvel's potential flop--or if not flop, then fall from their previously stellar record--but given how hyped Age of Ultron was, I feel like this their real letdown. The movie wasn't terrible, but in the wake of hits like Guardians or Winter Soldier, it didn't quite hold up. Sure, there were some good sequences and snippy dialog (no spoilers, just that there are some good little gags), but it still feels like there weren't enough redeeming qualities in the somewhat scattered plot to make it a great film, or even a very good one. Since we know where the Marvel Universe is going with Civil War later on, it feels like Age of Ultron is entirely devoted to shaping character's individual feelings and motives for the next movie. I won't call it filler, but overall this isn't a great film in any light. Expand

This is an alright movie as movies go. It is pretty good as Marvel movies go. I have heard grumbling, but it’s mostly nerds talking about things that can’t possibly matter or people looking to pick a fight with some low-hanging fruit. Mostly what was disappointing was that the real conflict was the same as the first Avengers movie (will the Avengers assemble? Answer: yes) which was a letdown because the opening makes it seem like the writers have finally moved on and that we can stop rehashing the plotline that is already destined for rehashing in Civil War. For a moment Whedon makes it seem like this tired emotional territory will be made anew by Hawkeye stepping forward as the hearth of the team but then he just remains in the role of underutilized acting talent while the camera lingers on him without explanation. Also, remember when Tony Stark died for a second in the first Avengers and even though you knew his contract said he had to be fine you still cared because it completed the only interesting character arc in the Marvel movies wherein a guy with no real powers and crippling narcissism changes from being a person to a Jesus? Verily he has risen, which is fine because there’s a whole other sequel where the event leaves him psychologically damaged and he must continue to evolve. You will not have that experience watching anyone die or not die in this movie. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After the release of Avengers: Infinity War, I began bingewatching all the MCU movies so that I could catch up in time with Avengers: Endgame. I had heard of Age of Ultron before as I once eavsdropped my classmates when they were talking about it one time. The only thing I knew about this movie was the meme in which Captain America is lifting the Mjolnir. So it'd be pretty much clear to say that I had no idea what I'm about to watch. I watched it with a blank slate. And somehow it managed to be worse than The Avengers in spite of the bigger cast and budget.

There are many things I like about this movie, and many things that I absolutely hate. This is probably the only superhero movie I have ever seen in which I like the conversation scenes more than the fight scenes. And that's exactly why this movie is such a mixed bag for me. The cinematography is so good it makes all the previous movies look campy, and the CGI is easily superior to any movie released before this (not just MCU, any movie at all). However, I didn't like the depiction of Ultron. The movie made him look like a total loser. The way Vision just wiped him out in the post credit scene was the last straw for me.

The only fight scene I liked in this movie was the one between Iron Man (Hulkbuster) and Hulk, since I hate Hulk and this was finally the point where my favourite hero Iron Man beats him to pulp. Everywhere else I felt like getting in the screen and slapping everyone. Black Widow (bleugh!) and Hawkeye are killing all the Iron Man clones with just a pistol and a bow. Ultron always shows up like he's supposed to be the most powerful creature to ever exist, and then gets whooped and goes away. It completely undermines the threat he is, if it wasn't for the Sokovia scene.

Speaking of the Sokovia scene, Quicksilver was the most terrible introduction to any superhero shown in the franchise. The X-Men Quicksilver and the MCU Quicksilver remind me of the Buff Doge vs Crying Cheems meme. His death in Sokovia made me go, "Oh no! Anyway...". Wanda was a much better character, but there was no way to tell she's the legendary Scarlett Witch if we don't know about it already. Same could be said about Quicksilver, but Scarlett Witch got a lot better in Captain America: Civil War, which made her redeemable for me.

Another thing that annoys me throughout the movie is that Black Widow has finally been reduced to what we always expected Joss Whedon to want her to be - an eye candy. Bruce Banner fell on her in one scene (I feel it's hypocrisy if we only talk about Flash and Wonder Woman but not this) and in one scene she kissed Bruce and then pushed her in a pit so that Hulk comes out. And Hulk is a completely separate entity yet he never seems to harm Natasha, even though he did it once in The Avengers.

Avengers: Age of Ultron is like the black sheep of all the Avengers movies. In spite of having huge potentials it simply falls flat in terms of everything. I really like all the characters in their own individual movies and MCU was going so great until this movie came. It's kinda weird The Avengers picked up from The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man 2 yet made them so cool while this picked up from Iron Man 3 and Captain America: The Winter Soldier still couldn't live up to their expectations. I'd give it another shot when I have nothing better to do, but until then I'm not gonna be liking it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Avengers: Age of Ultron, dirigida por Joss Whedon, nos sumerge nuevamente en el mundo de los superhéroes de Marvel en una entrega repleta de acción y emociones. Si bien la película tiene sus momentos emocionantes y nos brinda una dosis de entretenimiento, no logra alcanzar las alturas establecidas por su predecesora.

Una de las fortalezas de Avengers: Age of Ultron radica en el impresionante reparto de personajes icónicos. Los Vengadores originales, como Iron Man, Capitán América, Thor, Hulk, Viuda Negra y Hawkeye, vuelven a unirse y nos ofrecen interacciones dinámicas y escenas de combate llenas de energía. Además, la introducción de nuevos personajes como Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch y Vision, agrega una nueva dimensión al equipo y nos brinda emocionantes momentos de acción.

La película también nos deleita con secuencias de acción espectaculares y efectos visuales impresionantes. Las batallas épicas y las escenas de destrucción masiva mantienen al espectador pegado a la pantalla y demuestran el dominio de Marvel en la creación de escenas de acción visualmente impactantes. Además, los momentos de humor están presentes a lo largo de la película, aportando un toque ligero y divertido a la narrativa.

Sin embargo, Avengers: Age of Ultron sufre de un exceso de subtramas y personajes que pueden resultar abrumadores. La trama principal se ve ensombrecida por múltiples hilos narrativos secundarios, lo que puede dificultar el seguimiento y la cohesión general de la historia. Algunos personajes también pueden sentirse subdesarrollados, lo que resta profundidad y conexión emocional a la película.

Otro aspecto que puede afectar la experiencia es la falta de una amenaza villana tan impactante como Loki en la primera película de los Vengadores. Aunque James Spader hace un buen trabajo dando voz a Ultron, el villano en sí puede parecer un poco unidimensional y no alcanza el nivel de carisma y complejidad esperado.

En resumen, Avengers: Age of Ultron es un capítulo emocionante en el universo cinematográfico de Marvel, pero no logra igualar la grandeza de su predecesora. Aunque cuenta con secuencias de acción impresionantes y un reparto de personajes carismáticos, la trama sobrecargada y la falta de una amenaza villana impactante pueden restarle coherencia y profundidad. A pesar de estos desafíos, los fanáticos de Marvel y de los superhéroes encontrarán suficiente entretenimiento y emoción para disfrutar de esta entrega.

Despite several moments of cheesy humor provided by a scrambling cast of vaudevillians and a few moments of genuine magic, this film never feels particularly super or heroic. It's hard to get invested in a movie about the possible extinction of humanity, when the human characters focus most of their energy on quips and insult humor. This is like the worlds largest, longest, loudest episode of The Big Bang Theory. The only thing missing is the overbearing laugh track, which was sadly not provided by the audience I sat with.

I would recommend bringing along some aspirin, which you might need unless this movie does its intended job of numbing you to core. I left the theater with a headache and the sinking feeling that Disney has once again corrupted powerful mythology into something completely devoid of meaning or cultural import.

Instead of a story the audience can sink their teeth into, Ultron starts out with a CG fight scene and never lets up. Just one fight scene after another, each one trying to top the last. It doesn't take long to get numb to all this and sort of tune it out. Of course the heroes save the day and of course they set it up for the next film. But the ride to get there is so bombastic and shallow I just waited for it to be over. Expand

This film has the same sequence of events as Iron Man 2 and The Avengers for the end. Whoever directed this needs to be fired and banned from film making . A complete waste of time .

It was sloppy storytelling with a bunch of corny jokes. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were wasted. Ultron, the villain, threw less punches than he did punchlines.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just another film building up towards something bigger, as all of Marvel's films do. The romance between Bruce and Natasha wasn't needed. What about his devotion to Betty Ross? And for that matter, when are we ever going to see another Hulk film? Expand

Sure it's big expensive well orchestrated action, but I would argue very boring action when one too many of this director's specialty of let's say "idiotically unrealistic synchronous action plays, as in someone picking up or throwing or shooting something and hitting the one in a million mark over and over and over to the point of zero believability" results in therefore zero jeopardy. This thing has way too damn much action. It's just a blur of utterly forgettable nonsense at the end of the day isn't it? The silly dialogue could only pass muster for 8 year olds and the attempts at humor are coming from the sensibility of an uber geek, in other words it's not funny! Half a dozen funny one liners by the complacent Downy Jr. do not make up for it, much less the drivel coming out of the other actors' mouths.
I am a fan of superhero movies when they're good, like the original "Superman", "Batman", "X-Men", "Spiderman", "Iron Man", "The Dark Knight" and "Captain America" to name a few. Those are fun for all ages without being insulting to the intelligence of adults. That's way more than can be said for this overloaded juvenile film.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This will be quite a quick review, and I am going to mark it as containing spoilers.

Where it is awesome and interesting to see our favorite team of heroes back on the big screen, and in action, but here's where it falters. Ultron is not a threat at all. He is about as powerful as paper. The Avengers just rip through him with absolute ease. Also The Vision is just shoe horned in right at the end. They just seen to try and tell to many different stories, which make sense as there are so many of them in the film, but the way it's executed, it takes away from the entire experience. An example of this is the Black Widow and Bruce Banner romance, which just comes out of the blue, and just makes you think "who actually cares?" One last thing I really did not like were the casting choices for Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. Scarlet's costume wasn't even close to anything that she would possibly wear, neither of the actor's really look the part, and my gosh they really do not sound the part either.

It just seems like a stepping stone for other films in the franchise. I can already tell the Civil War film is going to be as big of a failure. One redeeming factor of the film is when Scarlet Witch uses her mind powers on Black Widow, and it uncovers her back story and how she became a spy. Other than that, this stepping stone in the Marvel Universe is slowly pointing to the demise and problems that are soon to come to the MCU unfortunately.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Avengers : Age of Ultron is a movie which the trailer wants us to watch the movie because it's awesome. However, the movie is disappointing because Ultron is evil because he is evil (he has no real motivations to be cruel) and he is boring. I felt like the movie was too long, because of the love story between Hulk and Black Widow, of the dialogues sometimes (some jokes weren't funny, is it because I saw the movie in French instead of English ?). They put characters we didn't know they exist on the movie, I expected a well-known superhero like Spider-man or Superman for example.
The story is disappointing, but the graphics are beautiful.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The biggest problem this movie had is that Ultron was far from being very smart. In the start they made him look like a very intimidating machine, but in the end he was "just afraid" of everything, far from an artificial inteligence who could actually outsmart the avengers. Most of Ultron's intentions were just obvious, except only for the flying city, which in the end wasn't really surprising.
Also, this movie feels like a mess when compared to the first Avengers movie. The first Avengers had a good balance between each scene, and they also explored the capabilities of the main heros in a balanced way. In Age of Ultron, this balance is not there anymore. One thing that made me upset was the fight between hulk and Iron Man. Hulk speciality is being incredibly strong, yet he gets beaten by Iron Man with a bigger suit that was just there on his sleeve. This felt unjust for Hulk's character.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A very disappointing sequel, so many things wrong with Disney's newest movie, so many characters with no time spent actually developing them, many pointless scenes setting up the next solo movies they'll be pushing out. Ultron poses no physical threat to the heroes at all, the only damage done to them comes in the form of the Scarlet Witch. Tony creates the evil AI villain Ultron, so you'd think he'd have learned his lesson, nope, his willing to do it all over again with the Vision, with no notion of how it could have went, Vision could have ended up being 10 times worse. The genius Ultron has the ability to have limitless copies of himself but brings every single copy to the final fight, you'd think he'd have multiple plans going simultaneously having an ability like that, or at the very least plan for defeat & stash a few copies elsewhere.

The Avengers franchise has turned into a Transformer movie. There was more rubble, dust, debris, smashed glass, overturned cars, falling building, explosions and noise than any other movie in cinema history. It was pure chaos. Honestly, I barely remember what the movie was about. Everything was moving so fast. I've been a comic book guy my entire life (58 years). I still have a huge comic book collection. But it is time for something else. We need another genre. Comic book movies have become such a bore.

D'abord une remarque : pourquoi 2h20 ? pourquoi diluer autant le film dans des dialogues idiots et quelque maladroite psychologie de comptoir et vague romance à deux francs six sous ? quand ce n'est pas pour tenter d'enrichir (?) uneD'abord une remarque : pourquoi 2h20 ? pourquoi diluer autant le film dans des dialogues idiots et quelque maladroite psychologie de comptoir et vague romance à deux francs six sous ? quand ce n'est pas pour tenter d'enrichir (?) une "intrigue" (rires étouffés...) à force d'explications oiseuses ou bien quelque plaisanterie dont aurait honte un nain de CE1...

Il faudrait assumer au moins vos super-héros de papier qui n'ont rien dans le ciboulot et tout dans la gueule. Con-centrez-vous sur l'action et les effets spéciaux, ça vous savez faire entre autres marveleries (quoique la réalisation est un poil cut tout de même ! c'est pas bien de saucissonner les plans ainsi).

Les vengeurs masqués déguisés donc... face à un méchant robot mégalo, Ultor ! on dirait un nom de réclame pour un produit vaisselle. Qu'est-ce qu'ils ont l'air con en tout cas ! je crois que c'est chez Marvel les pires.

La boîte de conserve volante, l'andouille avec son arc, l'abruti avec son marteau et surtout le meilleur pour la fin : le 'pitaine merdacaca et son bouclier colorié. Sans oublier la veuve qui sert à rien et le Flash qui a oublié son déguisement (?) et la bonnasse qui lance des éclairs (rouges !). Putain, qu'est-ce que c'est que ce carnaval de fête foraine ? ah le plus sympa c'est Hulk qui casse tout, au moins il fait pas semblant de réfléchir, le gros.

Bon, y a quand même en accélérant de temps à autre de quoi faire avec des bastons spectaculaires (l'adjectif est faible), des explosions, des tas de trucs qui pètent (des explosions ?), des voitures qui volent, des maisons qui volent, et tout qui finit par voler de toute façon.

Ultron récure tout à fond, jusqu'au fion ! Oh non pas de gros mots, Pitaine Merdacaca va encore nous chier une pendule !

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. -Avengers Age of Ultron-
Ce film ma beaucoup déçus. Par son scénario quasiment inexistant, Les personnages se succèdent sans réel impact sur les événements[spoiler] [puisqu’il se barre tous à la fin ...]. De plus une nouvelle équipe vient remplacer l’ancienne sans avoir d’enjeux particuliers seulement pour dire «On en a marre donc on change». [/spoiler] [spoiler] La décision de mettre captain america à la tête des [/spoiler] Avengers est totalement absurde il ne résout rien. A la fin celui qui gagne c’est Iron Man. Entendre dire qu’Iron Man se [spoiler] retire à la ferme [/spoiler] me dégoute...
Des combats moins vastes que Avengers 1 (dans ceux 2 éme épisode on ne détruit pas de ville), mais cependant les environnement sont plus variés (ça reprend la logique de transformeurs).
Un Dolby ATMOS encore non maîtrisé (on essais de faire en sorte que le son soit un plus or il fait partit du film et devrais être traité avec la même précision que l’image car a moins d’êtres dans un MEGA TREMBLMENT DE TERRE il n’y a qu’un seul effet Atmos (le bouton de l’ascenseur)
On s’en rend compte directement après les Démo technique de DOLBY (ce qui est normale ils on crée la norme.
Dans les choses qui m’on plus il y a l’aspect visuel bluffant. Ca sent tellement la maitrise que ça devient une punition totale pour la concurrence (en espérant que certain blockbuster arrive a faire au moins aussi bien cette année).
Le plus gros point fort du film est d’arriver à rassemblé une dizaine de héros à l’image et quasiment en même temps, c’est très fort.
Sinon une bonne 3D.
Des musiques discréte sauf pour les thèmes déjà entendus qui font plaisir a réentendre dans le film.

Whedon exits this group with a half grinned face after getting an applause for an admirable attempt.

Avengers: Age Of Ultron

Whedon is both straining and stretching it. For a brief period you ARE fooled, in believing that there is a lot going on, on this prodigious IMAX screen. But this misty figure will reveal itself and it is one big disappointment dressed in a bling-y superhero costume with gadgets so smooth and powers so unfathomable that it would giddy up the fans for more. But in this people-pleasing gold-digging chapter that is not only overstuffed with characters but also with irrelevant one-liners, the missing vital puzzle is the zip of the flow that its previous chapter was brimmed of.

With antics set oddly and the battles staged that can spiral out a heated debate in a bar, the purpose that drives all these characters into the battlefield seems outdated, overthought out and utterly complex in its malleability, yet eventually leads to the same old event that we had previously been part of. Joss Whedon, the writer and director, whose incongruent direction that somewhat made its previous chapter questionable, has clearly ran out of luck by this time. What this chapter does most importantly is shine the light on Downey's arc on this franchise, by this chapter, we can easily see that not only is he the nucleus of the group, but how rich the character gets as each side of his perspective puppets this cold world.

"We're mad scientist" he schemes with Ruffalo and there is an eye popping revelation that is cathartic for us as viewers. The antagonist is frankly dull, contradicting itself for few laughs, James Spader fails to shake the "Earth's mightiest heroes" which by the way Elizabeth Olsen does it in a snap!- no.. that was close. Jeremy Renner finally gets his mojo back with something to say that is both a criticism to itself and honest and as his speech grows longer quoting, "this doesn't make any sense.." it somehow does just not to the people residing in an Age Of Ultron.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After watching this film, I’m glad Joss Whedon isn’t taking over Avengers: Infinity War, since there are several things I hated about it:
1. I didn’t find Ultron very menacing or compelling since he acted like a buffoon Disney villain. Just like Joker in The Dark Knight, his pretentious pseudo-philosophical babble tried too hard to sound important, but it really wasn’t. Not to mention his plan was pretty silly (it never seemed to me like his “meteor” could exterminate mankind).
2. Elizabeth Olsen and Aaron Taylor-Johnson were miscast, they didn’t bring much charisma or depth to the table, their characters' motivations made no sense, and their awful Eastern European accents that came and went were quite distracting.
3. Blatantly recycling plot elements from the first movie, namely, Hulk going rogue against the team and the villain controlling the mind of a scientist for his own gain.
4. One of the reasons the first movie worked so well is because it kept things relatively simple, whereas AOU’s script has too stuff much going on. Because of that, it felt incoherent and disjointed at times. It almost gives The Amazing Spider-Man 2 a run for its money.
5. Overall, I thought the scenes in Hawkeye's house were boring and didn’t really go anywhere (why does Hawkeye’s wife act like she knows the Avengers perfectly after a few hours of meeting them?).
6. The only reason the Hulkbuster armor scene exists is to have another toy to sell.
7. Why is S.H.I.E.L.D. suddenly active again? Did Joss Whedon not care about the events in Captain America: The Winter Soldier?
8. Most notably, the contrived and cringe-inducing attempt at a romance between Black Widow and Bruce Banner. Not only does it come out of nowhere, it’s entirely out of character for both Natasha and Banner, especially the former. Black Widow was established as someone who tries to keep her distance emotionally speaking so things can stay professional in the previous films. It seems Joss Whedon forgot about the moment when she said “love is for kids” in the first movie. As for Banner, well, I guess we’re supposed to pretend Betty Ross never existed…
The only positive aspects I found were Vision and the long shot at the beginning. Just like the Iron Man sequels, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Thor: The Dark World, it's one of those films that was made to sell merchandise rather than telling a good story. Joss Whedon was going though the motions and seemed to think "who cares about character development and making sense? the movie is still going to make millions!" Such a massive disappointment, especially after the wonderful Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Heck, even Guardians of the Galaxy was better.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie had stunning visual effects which kept me entertained part of the time, but other parts of this movie had me scratching my head. The previous film in the MCU Captain America: Winter Soldier (which was great) had a love interest between Black Widow and Cap, but all of a sudden Black Widow is in love with Bruce banner??? I don't know where this came from, but it felt forced, and the chemistry was not there. Then when Ultron came around to being born he decides he hates the Avengers for... well... reasons I guess. From that point the movie just felt like a bit of an action packed mess. Can't say I really enjoyed this one that much, I tried to, but just couldn't. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie feels like a tired rainy day, from the gray washed out colors of the entire film, to the lackadaisical attitudes of the characters as they crack jokes while they fight enemies, because fighting apparently isn't a challenge for them anymore. The plot is awful, predictable and thrown together. Ultron's motivations are unclear and happen so instantaneously that they are just a plot convenience and the character has no depth. Late in the movie a certain character purposely jumps into a hail of bullets to protect someone else and the motivation for why is very unclear. I don't have a lot to say about this movie because it just felt unengaging on almost every level. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are two new characters of interest, but their involvement is tepid and they don't really become fully realized characters. The character introduced latest in the film also seems very interesting, but in some ways feels like a Deus ex Machina. Is there anything good about this film? I guess some of the action is okay, but most of the movie is boring and conversational, with needless family and relationship developments that make it feel more like you're watching Lifetime than Marvel. One of my least favorite films of the MCU. Expand

The characters talk a lot of crap and nonsense.Extremely bad plot. No real character development.

Really this movie is this series death knell. I don't think there will be a follow up to this. Expand

The first Avengers movie was a fun 7/10 movie, but this second one, god its atrocious!
Its just like Avengers 1, it is a movie full of heroes fighting an massive Robot/Alien army commanded by a cool villain(In Loki's case, Ultron is ****

Film is a visual medium, and while I don't necessarily think that the newest installment of the Avengers franchise was a visually interesting film, it was a visually exciting film. And for that, it earned three points.
As far as story,

As far as story, character development, writing, direction and virtually any other element you might grade a movie on, Avengers is a monumental failure. Let's start with the villain: the element that, in my opinion, makes or breaks a superhero film.
James Spader voices "Ultron," a sentient robot with the intellect of Einstein and the jokes Carrot Top. He's the brainchild of Tony Stark (who, similarly, has the intellect of Einstein and the jokes of Carrot Top,) and has come to rebel against his creator and wipe out the human race. Why? Well, he was programmed to protect the world, and he's going to do so by....killing everyone? Look, I'll be honest, I kind of checked out during this explanation. The point you need to take away from this is that Ultron is a poorly conceived, non-scary, bad joke machine.
As for the Avengers themselves? Well they're as self righteous and blandly Americana as ever....

Look, I'm going to cut this review short. Here's the deal: fanboys are going to love this movie because they evidently have no taste in film, or, their blind devotion to some integral part of their childhood is masking them to the fact that this was a 2 hour plus, morality spewing quip-fest. If you like good film you already know to stay away from this dumpster of a movie. I thought the nerd in me would redeem this flick (and, to be honest, there was nothing going on TV that night,) but I realized that I like good movies more than I like superheroes.

I swear on all that is mighty that I will never, ever let myself get excited for another damn marvel movie ever again. Every time I do I'm set up for a massive fall. Ya hear me Joss Whedan? You messed up big time, get out of this movie genreI swear on all that is mighty that I will never, ever let myself get excited for another damn marvel movie ever again. Every time I do I'm set up for a massive fall. Ya hear me Joss Whedan? You messed up big time, get out of this movie genre before it kills you. (For anyone who thought this movie was better than the first one I suggest you stop reading now as I'm likely to offend). A film with such promise, such good character development by some, how it managed to become an utter mess of explosions and robots is beyond me. Looks like they used Man of Steel as a reference point for the fight scenes and destruction of the entire city. The interaction between the characters was one of the better things in the movie but was hindered by the overwhelming amount of people. James Spader was a spot on choice, if there's one thing the Avenger films get right is the choice of villain. Definitely worth a watch but I never want to see it again. Expand

The first one was alright...but I got bored after about 30 minutes and fell asleep. I woke up occasionally, but was so bored I fell asleep again. Did anything actually happen in this movie?

I'm not fan of these new action and CG packed movies, because there is no deeper story or should I say soul in them and user can't connect with the actors at all

Too much action. Too much CGI. A-typical corny action dialogue with a plot that suffers from all of it. Not a must see film.

A movie that only exist to set up future movies, there's not a lot more than that. It's dissapointing.

lame villain, lame action with mass cgi villain and the film turns into walking dead season 2 when they head off to the farm.
