This movie is a good movie. Not quite as great some people are making it out to be but none of the less this is a fun entry into the marvel cannon. Not there best but still very good. Age of ultron is the second movie in the avengers movieThis movie is a good movie. Not quite as great some people are making it out to be but none of the less this is a fun entry into the marvel cannon. Not there best but still very good. Age of ultron is the second movie in the avengers movie where the avengers find themselves facing a threat a threat that maybe even greater than loki. The cast gives a very good performance like they normally do, The action was great and James spader was great as ultron. The film is not quite as mind blowing or quite as well directed as the avengers and loki is definitely a better villain than ultron. None of the less check this movie out. It is very good just not quite as good as the avengers… Expand

Certainly a letdown, but still a competent and fun superhero flick that relies a little too heavily on jokes. Still, the introduction of Ulysses Klaue into the MCU is flawless.

Avengers:Age of Ultron is one of the final movies in marvel phase 2 and while not as great as the first one,this movie is still very good.

The action in this movie is truly spectacular and the visual effects are really good and believable throughout.This movie is filled with fighting sequences from the very beginning until the end.And I love all of them especially the end battle where the stakes are really high and a few emotional moments.
Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are some of the new additions and they are very awesome and well done.I honestly thought that Quicksilver is not going to be good after what I saw on X-Men DOFP but he is great here too,and so is the actor who portrays him.
I love the group talks,seeing them get mad at each other and hating/loving is just so much fun and interesting.Also this movie is filled with laughs and comedic moments everywhere,which I truly appreciate.
As about the main villain,Ultron,in my opinion,he was very well done.I really liked him,and his sarcastic jokes.which I found funny every single time.He is mesmerizing and not forgettable at all.His intentions very understandable and the only problem with him was his creation,which felt rushed but besides that he is a very good villain.
There are some things that don't quiet work here,and other things that they did which just feel like they are setting up for the next movies to come in the marvel universe,but these are small flaws and passable ones because this movie overall is very well done and interesting until the very end.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Avengers Age of Ultron has done it again. Joss Wheden has again crafted a masterful film that balances his excess of characters marvelously. All of the Avengers get their proper time to shine, with none feeling left out as Hawk Eye did in the original Avengers movie. but by far the best characters in the movies are Ultron and Vision. They really illustrate the vision likes Ultron, he just doesn't agree with his motives so he is forced to fight against him.
Overall Avengers Age of Ultron delivers on every level. The action, the characters, the dialog, and the humor is top notch and is near flawless.… Expand

A super hero movie is a movie which shows super powers and show offs of a particular character.When it comes to Avengers , it is not about a single superhero , it deals with a half dozen super heroes in a single screen.It is really difficultA super hero movie is a movie which shows super powers and show offs of a particular character.When it comes to Avengers , it is not about a single superhero , it deals with a half dozen super heroes in a single screen.It is really difficult to take a film giving equal importance to all this super heroes.But Director cum scriptwriter Joss Whedon has done a good job to incoperate all these characters in to a single package - Avengers : Age of Ultron.

This time it is the ' Ultron ' who take the resposibility of killing the mankind and thus in a way , the global eradication is its objective.While seeing the film , the irony is well understood that this same Ultron was created by ' Stark (Iron Man ) ' unintentionally.Hence the story is about how these Ultron
& co. are defeated by Avengers and save the mankind.

As usual ,' Robert Downey Jr. ' was cool in the character of Iron Man.
'Chris Hemworth ( Thor ) ' has got more screentime in this movie than the predecessor.He performs some light hearted comedies in this sequel.' Scarlett Johanssen ' was also equally charming in her role as ' Black Widow ' .' Hulk ( Mark Ruffalo ) ' rocks as usual.There is even a fight sequence between Iron Man and Hulk.Both 'Captain America ( Chris Evans ) ' and ' Hawk Eye ( Jeremy Renner ) ' has got equally important roles.There are two new additions to the Avengers ,and i think i will leave it up to the viewers to find out who they are.

Joss Whedon ( Director cum script writer ) managed to keep up the expectations of the audiences about this highly anticipated big budget production.Music department has done a good job.Hats off to those who handled the computer graphics and visual effects.

As a whole this movie has its elements to keep the viewers engaged for around two and a half hours.Cliches are the only drawbacks , if any to be pointed out.

My rating : 3.5/5

The writing is unimpressive but does keep the characters likeable, but that may be due to the great acting from the whole cast. Ultron is a great villain but is never developed enough, so he never reaches his full potential. The action can be great but just feels like any blockbuster out there, and never fully exceeds them in that department.

Overall a complete let down on the film, that is sure to go down in score after the hype has died down. Still has some good moments that do bring the score up, but is so uneven that the highest score I can give this film is a 6.… Expand

While most certainly not failing to live up to it's predecessor in the realm of action in terms of both quantity and quality, this film does fail to deliver on the same "wow" factor of the first movie. It would've made quite the differenceWhile most certainly not failing to live up to it's predecessor in the realm of action in terms of both quantity and quality, this film does fail to deliver on the same "wow" factor of the first movie. It would've made quite the difference (for the better) to have a previously developed hero join the team for this bout at saving the world as it was, just a small tad, dull to watch the same heroes with a couple of newcomers, only just now developed in this film fight it out against another sinister villain. Who, by the way is portrayed brilliantly by actor James Spader. The rest of the cast also does an amazing job playing their respective characters. The extended development of this film's supporting characters, especially Hawkeye and Maria Hill was also very well done and welcomed with open arms. While it is lacking in any real twists in the story, it was an interesting premise with acceptable pacing.… Expand

Though there are plenty that may not agree, and they don't have to, Age of Ultron bests the first Avengers by relying less on witty one-liners and more on cool characters that carry parallels to thoughts held by people today when talkingThough there are plenty that may not agree, and they don't have to, Age of Ultron bests the first Avengers by relying less on witty one-liners and more on cool characters that carry parallels to thoughts held by people today when talking about technology advancements (and how far is too far when trying to achieve A.I.?). I saw this twice in theaters and even the second time still greatly enjoyed it. The action is properly balanced throughout the movie, and the tease for the third film is setting up what I think will be one epic & wild ride. When you can put substance to cool characters and slick action scenes, you get great movies like Age of Ultron. I highly recommend getting in on this with a big screen before the summer movies flood us all and it gets demoted to lesser screens or Redbox.… Expand

The first Avengers movie was something I think just about anyone would have enjoyed. This one is more for those truly into this type of movie. You do not have to be a comic book fan to enjoy it.

For a sequel, it has done an impressive job. Standards are super high for this movie due to the success of the first one. If you go, just know it will be fast paced fun.… Expand

I really enjoyed this movie! Not as amazing as the first Avengers film, but it did come close. There were a few things that really bugged me that prevented this movie from being a 10.

Warning: SPOILERS I didn’t like how they threw usI really enjoyed this movie! Not as amazing as the first Avengers film, but it did come close. There were a few things that really bugged me that prevented this movie from being a 10.

Warning: SPOILERS

I didn’t like how they threw us into a huge action sequence. We didn’t even know who they were fighting until several minutes into the scene. That’s a terrible setup. Very over the top. However, after that sequence with the Hydra base, everything became very very good! I loved Joss Whedon's dialogue scenes between the many characters. I especially loved the part when Thor got worried that Captain America would lift his hammer… then sighed with relief and smiled trying to hide his fear. I also loved the story of how Tony Stark created Ultron to help them defend Earth, which totally backfired. It made total sense given the events in the past films.

Another thing that bugged me was how Black Widow all of a sudden was in love with Bruce Banner. Where the heck did that come from? She had her moments with Hawkeye in the first Avengers, and then with Captain America in the Winter Soldier film… but now she loves the Hulk? I guess they can’t figure out a real story for the Hulk, so this gives him something to do. Also, I didn’t like how the bad guys made the Hulk go crazy again, so the Avengers had to subdue him again. Total copout as it’s identical to what happened in the first movie. Although, that Iron Man vs. Hulk fight was epic!

I also didn’t like how this film really didn’t push any of the Thanos storyline forward. It was more of a story about how the Avengers almost doomed themselves, which is a good story in itself, but not for continuing the overall series. So when Thanos shows up in the credits and says, “Looks like I have to take care of things myself.” That implies that Ultron not being able to destroy Earth was of his doing… which made no sense. Anyways, this totally explains why the Infinity War story is going to be broken into two films… because Thanos really hasn’t been hands on at all so far.

I think they did an awesome job with balancing the characters in this movie, while still giving Hawkeye a big piece in the film. I LOVED THAT! I also think they did a great job introducing a ton of new characters (Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Vision), even if their abilities are supernatural, they did a great job without making their abilities feel too cartoony. I was always afraid that when they got to these more mystical characters, that it would ruin a universe that’s been mostly grounded on reality. When Iron Man, Thor and Vision were blasting Ultron all at once… Vision felt like he fit right in. Dope!… Expand

Let's start with the good points. Amazing action scenes, like, seriously some of the best in any comic book movie to date, the story was pretty good but i was dissapointed the end goal was a typical 'destroy the world' plot. The characters we really good, Hawkeye and Bruce Banner became more interesting, Quicksilver was ok, I didn't like how they killed him off, scarlet witch was ok as well and Vision was amazing, absolutely loved him. The Hulk VS Ironman (Hulkbuster) scene was the best part of the movie, soooo good. But seriously, WHY and HOW did Ironman win?!?!?

Now for the bad parts. Way, way, way too many cheesy jokes. C'mon Marvel can you just lay off the jokes for at least one movie? While it was one of the more darker MCU movies, it still had the cheesiness to it. Now for Ultron, i wanted to like him but i just couldn't he was way too comedic and was continuously cracking cheesy jokes, it took away from how menacing he is supposed to be, but i can say that we was cool showing off his powers at times. Another minus is that the movie did feel a little clustered, i would've liked to see more of the Maximoff twins. Also the post/mid credit scene was disappointing, nothing new that we haven't seen yet.

A couple other touches i liked were Thor's vision about the infinity gems, it's nice we got to see some set up for Infinity war, i also loved the fact that they went to Wakanda, nice little Black Panther reference.
All in all i thoroughly enjoyed this film, especially for a comic book fan like myself. 8/10… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was surprisingly long and involved, and did a good job of balancing an enormous cast of interesting characters, many of whom have their own elaborate back stories, as well as some new characters. The movie brings the Avengers together again, with all of their disagreements and disgruntlements with one another--their antagonism produces some solid running gags, such as teasing Captain America for his reaction to swearing. The premise of the movie is interesting, as they're now fighting a villain of Tony Stark's own creation, which tests the bonds between the Avengers. We also see (finally) a Scarlett Johansson romance developing, but with the Hulk, as we simultaneously find out that her friendship with Hawkeye is just that. Their just-friends status is confirmed by the discovery that Hawkeye has a comfortable nuclear family tucked away in a set of woods somewhere for their safety, which makes him a more complex character.

The resolution of the film through the creation of yet another artificial intelligence from Tony Stark is neat, and manages to avoid feeling like a deus ex machina by all the work it takes to get everything worked out. The action scenes leading up to the climax were really well paced, as the action was punctuated by conversations between different characters, and it balanced all their different story lines as well. Another solid Marvel movie, that ends on a nice note of anticipation, already setting up for the next installment.… Expand

To deny that it has really high points would be stupid. The action is magnificent. The characters interact in a very funny and interesting way, and they all have a motivation for the most part. Being a little bit more specific here: Captain America is all of a sudden the coolest Avenger, going hand-to-hand against Ultron and pretty much kicking ass. Iron Man and Hulk have their moments, although not as many as I would have hoped. Hawkeye and Black Widow feel important enough and Thor... well, he's there too, and he's cool. Now, the Vision is probably the biggest attraction. He's visually astounding. And the twins are good enough to keep the film going on. Ultron is a really interesting villain, even though he could have been more menacing at times. But I do hate one thing: the editing. The pace of the movie is terrible at times and I hate that some scenes have no connection with anything. Regardless, Age of Ultron will probably end up being the least relevant Avengers film, but I think it's very, very solid and entertaining.… Expand

But its definitely a brilliant movie. Ultron is a much more devastating and indestructible villain. I prefer him over Loki any day of the week. One of the best scenes is the destructive action sequence between Iron Man and the Hulk. They practically tear apart a city in a catastrophic and unexpectedly funny smash match! There's a few new characters this time round. Specifically Scarlett Witch and Quicksilver. Their accents are a little muddy but they make good bonuses for the team. I'm excited to see them grow in future Marvel movies. I would have liked it if they had shown more of Ultron though. He's brilliantly brought to life by James Spader and his menacing throat box. I'd definitely watch this movie again, and I'd definitely recommend it. A must watch for Superhero fans!… Expand

'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 suitable level, I didn't overly like the characters of Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen but I also don't have any noteworthy negatives about them. The story between Scarlett Johansson and Mark Ruffalo didn't do much for me either.

With that noted, it is still an enjoyable ride through the 141 minute run time. The ending is intriguing, interested to see where that goes - I have a minor inkling about the mid-credits scene, given all the internet attention that has had - even for someone like me who knows very little overall.… Expand

Age of Ultron is pretty much non-stop punching action. There's very little downtime between scenes, and every scene has someone punching something. In the first movie we had emotion, tension, drama... basically a bunch of gods trying to get the measure of each other as they fought against a largely unknown enemy, that culminated in a good ol' fashioned brawl. Here we have just the brawl, and the movie lacks for it. It's not bad, but its not the same quality.

It was also painfully clear that this movie was written to fill the gap and get the Marvel Universe to where the writers wanted it for the third movie. There's so much "oh look who's here" and "hey, guess what this is" that it would be ridiculous in anything but a comic book movie.

Ultimately, a fun movie, worth the money to see it in the theater, but I doubt I'll watch it a second time nor remember it much anyway. Unlike the first movie, which I have seen multiple times and plan to see again real soon.… Expand

The Good: Obviously the action scenes are fantastic, which is to be expected. But this time around, the choreography of some of the fight scenes and the way that the large battles were filmed was mind blowing. The characterization was very well done despite what I thought would be an unwieldy cast. Sure, the overwhelming majority of the characters in the film were fleshed out in the first film or in other films, but it was still impressive that Whedon found a way for everyone to shine and have their moments. On top of that, he juggled plenty of cameos from the Marvel Cinematic Universe with ease. The cast just seems to genuinely like eachother and enjoy working together and it shows. The camaraderie is apparent, even in the more tense and confrontational scenes. New characters Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), and Vision (Paul Bettany) fit right in without missing a beat as if they were wholeheartedly welcomed into the super hero fraternity. On the villainous side, James Spader lends his distinctive voice to Ultron, an A.I. bent on exterminating mankind. I was initially leery of him being cast in this role, but any reservations that I had were remedied the very first moment he spoke. Lastly, there are plenty of Easter Eggs and references that hardcore fans will enjoy. A couple of battles in particular, which showcase everyone fighting together, are especially geekgasm-worthy. A triumphant sequel that surpasses the original, which I thought was impossible.

The Bad: Unfortunately, one thing that will bring the film down is that it doesn't stand on it's own. It's tied heavily not only to it's predecessor, but also into the myriad of other films that comprise a shared universe. If you haven't seen those films, you won't get everything. A few CGI scenes were not as good as they should have been, which was a little surprising. Ultron's final gambit was a slight letdown. I was expecting more with all the build up.… Expand

Only this time the action has been cranked upAge of Ultron is pure, bombastic superhero fun. If you are expecting the next big evolution in Marvel's superhero movies you may be left disappointed. Whedon brings us simply more of the Avengers. Only this time the action has been cranked up significantly. It really doesn't do much to build up or change it's world. It mainly serves as another entry meant to entertain while hinting at even bigger things to come.

This isn't entirely a bad thing. The results are very fun. Plenty of references to and inclusions of material from the comics that built this universe are in place to make Marvel fans happy. While the almost non-stop action can get exhausting at times it is no less entertaining. Probably though where the movie stumbles the most is that there isn't any real tension.

Ultron is a compelling villain and played incredibly well by James Spader. He has an incredible personality that ultimately isn't used well enough to make him stand out. Despite all of his witty lines and incredible potential his role isn't anything more than what we've already come to see from other Marvel movie villains. His generic destroy humanity goal basically just serves as a way to give the Avengers a lot of cannon fodder to bash through. I enjoyed seeing Ultron onscreen and he does have a few cool moments that elevate him above generic Marvel movie villain, but his motives and methods are basically the same. It's not hard to see that there's so much more that could have been done with him.

The majority of the story itself is the generic heroes have to save the day stuff we got with the last Avengers, but there are moments where it all tries to do something a little more. It does a lot to build up tension between the heroes (an obvious setup for Civil War). Their motives are tested and reasoning questioned. Although it all works out in the end and they team up to beat the villain once again it's not hard to see how some of these wounds of mistrust won't heal all the way and lead to some conflict down the road.

They pack a lot into this movie. A significant portion of which builds up the future of the MCU. Some more minor additions like the inclusions of new superheroes and looks into some the more minor characters (Hawkeye) lives are appreciated and fun. Most of this little stuff pays off in big ways, especially in the humor department. These characters have formed real relationships. Their friendships often lead to some playful teasing that's hilarious. Humor extends to other aspects of the film as well. The humor is appreciated even among all of the chaos.

One thing that doesn't really work out is the relationship between Banner and Black Widow. Outside of Ruffalo's charming awkwardness and goofiness around Natasha the relationship doesn't actually feel like a real thing. The characters interact, but you never pick up any sort of romantic vibe. I can say that it doesn't feel forced, but that's because it doesn't feel like it actually exists.

As always with these superhero movies the fiction is stretched due to a reliance on elements and possibilities that don't exist in the real world. Age of Ultron does a great job at keeping these things understandable. At least until talk of infinity stones pops up and they create android life. I'm still not really sure what happened with that.

Age of Ultron is a superhero extravaganza. It's roughly two-and-a-half hour running time is packed full of action and excitement. It might not hit all of the right notes with it's story or do anything particularly new, but it doesn't change the fact that it's still a blast. If you enjoy Marvel movies you'll enjoy this. It brings your favorite, incredibly well cast superheroes back to thing big screen in order to do some crazy cool stuff.

I give "Avengers: Age of Ultron" an 8.5/10.… Expand

Ultron: "There are no strings on me!".

The story to The Avengers: Age of Ultron is about Tony Stark jumpstarts a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth's Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, TheUltron: "There are no strings on me!".

The story to The Avengers: Age of Ultron is about Tony Stark jumpstarts a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth's Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as they battle to save the planet from destruction at the hands of the villainous Ultron.

You had no idea how excited I was for Age of Ultron even after the chilling and dark looking teaser trailer we got back in October last year. The teaser trailer looked really dark and so dead serious and I know that's a thing with Marvel films today that they making they own films look dark and gritty but it's comedy, I have no idea why they do that but anywhere I was hooked. The villain Ultron was another reason for me to get excited for the movie as "There are no strings on me", thing I never thought it would be so creepy. After seeing the movie I can say that Age of Ultron is a great start to summer movies and a lot of fun to watch.

Joss Whedon had spoken out saying "This was the hardest movie he ever worked on", and I clearly see the effort and hard work put into this movie. Joss had a lot of things in his hands while making this movie and that's it's characters, story, action and it's brilliant sense of humor, and it payed off well. Joss Whedon did a great job directing this movie as he put in enough energy and to entertain everyone.

James Spader as the villain Ultron is pretty much what I already expected for the most part but these a lot of surprises to his character like his sense of humor and how self aware he is about everything around him and I think it worked and fitted him very well. James Spader pretty much dose Raymond 'Red' Reddington from The Blacklist and I'm not saying that in a negative way but more of a good thing. Marvel isn't doing such a great job with villains and I'm not talking about Loki I mean in Thor: The Dark World, Iron Man 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy all have weak villains but Ultron was awesome and I'm happy his character wasn't like the other villains in those three movies I just named. Great work James Spader.

The visual effect's were pretty damn good, the Avengers themselves are once again brilliant as we remember them.

Now for problems: Black Widow and Bruce Banner or Hulk have a love triangle in this movie and it really doesn't work at all. They chemistry wasn't there and there was no build up to it, I would like to see Captain American or Haweye have relationship with her as she as better chemistry with those two, it would have made more sense since she's been with Captain America and Haweye more times than Banner.

I feel that the movie didn't really set up the Civil War story in the next Marvel movie with Iron Man and Captain America against each other. I know a couple of times those two would get into a little fight but they quickly shake it off and moved on, it's a small little nick pick I have and I know it wouldn't effect everyone else but I just saying the Civil War story should have been set up a little bit.

Overall The Avengers: Age of Ultron is a great start to the summer movie season. I had a great time watching this movie, I never got bored, all the characters had they screen time and it was funny and entertaining, the villain I thought was great and the action scenes was very enjoyable.… Expand

Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson and Jeremy Renner are back with some new additions to the franchise in 'Avengers: Age of Ultron', one of the most anticipated films of 2015.

This sequel isRobert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson and Jeremy Renner are back with some new additions to the franchise in 'Avengers: Age of Ultron', one of the most anticipated films of 2015.

This sequel is very different to the 2012 film, 'The Avengers'. By that I mean the first movie is for people who are looking for a good action flick and are disappointed with the "Transformers" films. But the action still needs purpose and that's what that movie had to offer, it didn't disappoint. "Age of Ultron" on the other hand is a darker, personal and small sequel than the original. In other words, if you like a bigger story with heart and emotion with some pretty neat action, i.e. 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' (2014), than this one is for you.

While the characters are back, the humor is present and the action scenes are aplenty, 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' will no doubt divide many audiences who may think this is either better than the original, or slightly underwhelming. I think it's as good as the first, it may not be clean as 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' (2014), nor is it messy as 'Guardians of the Galaxy' (2014), but I was gripped from start to finish.

James Spader voices Ultron, the main enemy of the film. The first thing I have to comment on is his performance, and what a performance it is. I reckon Ultron is the best on-screen, comic-book villain since Heath Ledger's Joker in 'The Dark Knight' (2008).

Another new additions to the franchise are; Pietro Maximoff aka "Quicksilver" (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Wanda Maximoff aka "Scarlet Witch" (Elizabeth Olsen). I didn't really feel that these characters were necessary to this story, but they had some spectacular moments and that's thanks to Joss Whedon's confident direction.

Overall, I liked this movie, probably not as much as recent superhero outings such as 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' (2014) or 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' (2014)...but I liked it much better than 'Guardians of the Galaxy' (2014). The story is darker, the action scenes maybe too much and too exhausting, and maybe 2 hours and 21 minutes is a bit too long...but if you are a die-hard Marvel fan, you will not be disappointed.

And by the way, is Aaron Johnson's Quicksilver better than Evan Peters? I still prefer Evan Peters because of that famous slow-motion scene, but Johnson delivers a clean and sophisticated, cool performance.… Expand

Many consider The Avengers to be a cornerstone film for comic book adaptions.The Avengers is an absolute behemoth of a movie. Throwing together the best interwoven cinematic universe is a tough thing to do, but Marvel certainly nailed it. Many consider The Avengers to be a cornerstone film for comic book adaptions. Though I have my gripes with it, those people are certainly right; it nails the essence of what a comic book feels like. Also The Avengers was popular, as many of you know. Like the transition from The Dark Knight to Rises, it’s nearly impossible to meet the standards the previous film has made, but Whedon has tried and he gives us a flawed gem that I have enjoyed more than the first, but still has it’s share of issues.

The opening of the film very much channels the energy of the ending of the first movie. The high pace action that follows one characters and passes the torch to another, eventually giving us an overview of the team, The movie has some very well placed shots, and for the sake of the action, some great cinematography. When Iron Man punches something with tons of inertia, you feel it. When the Hulk bulldozes his way through a structure, you get the awe of the moment, something director, Joss Whedon, nails and is more consistent with this time around.

It wouldn’t be a Whedon film without mentioning the dialogue. Joss proves, yet again, that he’s a master of banter and juggling characters. This works out great, particularly with Hawkeye, whom gets the best lines the entire movie and cements himself as a standout, he is given the right amount of love and care that was absent. Iron Man bounces off of everyone pretty well, and the characters feel exactly as they should be, except Ultron. Our villain here is played quite well by the mesmerizing voice of James Spader, however, the dialogue fails him. Too often do we hear sarcasm that just doesn’t feel right and doesn’t match the sinister look and feel that Ultron should emulate. It’s disappointing because Ultron had so much potential to be a more menacing and memorable villain and instead, he just fills a role.

There’s a romance dynamic between Dr. Banner and Black Widow that seems out of place as well. It’s good to get some insight into the mind of the Hulk but the way it came to life just feels out of place and doesn’t have a good enough pay off, though perhaps it will in a future installment. We also get two new characters in the form of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. Both are integral to the plot, and Scarlet Witch makes for a pretty good edition, whereas Quicksilver’s powers are showcased very well, neither give off a huge lasting impression, but it’s forgivable and they’re fun to see on screen.

The main problem that the movie suffers from is pacing. The first one spent all it’s time on the helicarrier and in New York, this one juggles so many locations it’s tough to pin it all down. The beginning is quick and interesting, but then there’s just gap that doesn’t really grab and hold onto us. Age of Ultron is at it’s best when there’s action going on or The Avenger’s themselves are caught up in conflict with one another. This oddball pacing continues, but it doesn’t mean we don’t get some great moments. We get a look at Black Panther’s main villain played by Andy Serkis. There’s an action sequence in Africa with Hulkbuster armor and The Hulk that’s a highlight, the ending is pretty solid as well, and any scenes with The Vision are great.

What attracts me to the movie is how it’s evolved from the first one. Whedon could have done it all over again in the same format and people would have loved it, but that’s no how he does it. We get a fleshed out story that sometimes falls but damn it’s admirable, we get the comedy and quips that Joss is known for, and some superb action to top it all off. I will admit that while most of the dialogue was great, there are some bad moments of dialogue, however they are few and far in between.

What we get is a commendable movie that I really did have a lot of fun with. There are moments where I got lost, there was too much going on, or it jumps around too much, but we end up with a Marvel movie that delivers, and the promise of an Avenger’s sequel is a hard thing to deliver, Whedon does his best and gives us a good product. Age of Ultron is a great movie for any Marvel fans and film goers alike.… Expand

The mediocre and negative reviews this film recieves are from reviewers who I think are yet to get hip to the "shared universe" storytelling style that comic books have been using for over 100 years. The "movie" is dead. We are in the post modern era of film. Movies now ASSUME that you have seen the previous versions, are familiar with the characters and their relationships, and will see it's brother and sister films. The film doesn't need to explain everything and everybody. It also assumes you will see it multiple times. It does't care if you can't keep up. As a comic fan, I find this thrilling. There is no need for the cliche notes that films have struck for years just because they feel they "need" to.… Expand

You know what you're getting into before this one, a lot of action and dialogue that leaves you scratching your head. It delivers in both aspects. Still a fun family movie.

Not close to the first one but a good movie to see if you want to kill some time. Acting was not so great and was predictable. Was not satisfied when I left the movie.

The film throws so much at the audience in regards to action, characters, and story that it is too much to take in causing everything to cancel everything out and create a forgettable film. I’m not saying the Avengers didn’t have moments the parts of the film where it slowed down and had character moments and had external conflict the film was enjoyable; but all that is lost under the excessive story and action. Nothing is given time to sink in because we need to move on to the next big thing. While I was entertained by the film it lacks, any rewatch value, lasting appeal, or anything that could stick in my head.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's a decent movie but definitely not great unless you're a massive Marvel fan. Lots of fighting and rather disappointing story.

My main complains:
The villain - AI that was supposed to protect humans but decides that in order to do that he needs to start an apocalypse - how original.

Iron Man has some special suit that he keeps on the orbit. He uses it to fight Hulk but doesn't bother with it in the final fight.

Vibranium - the same material that was used for Captain America's shield. Turns out there is still a bunch of that metal on earth. More than that, Iron Man actually knows where to get that material, but he never bothered to make a suit out of vibranium. Really?

The friendly AI/cyborg they created. He can fly, shoot some beams and carry Thor's hammer, but nobody bothers to explain how he got these powers.

I enjoyed some of the back stories of the characters, fighting scenes were pretty cool but that's it. So far both Avengers 1 and 2 are the movies where the main concept is "Lets put all those superheroes together and make them fight against some evil, people will love that!"

Come on, at least make a decent story or proper enemies rather than a bunch of robots.… Expand

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.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not a bad movie at all, but probably my least favorite out of all of the marvel franchise. Simply put, way too rushed and way too many plot points, characters and topics covered. The movie never feels like it has a single moment to breathe. Because of this nothing is given the proper attention and time all of it both needs and deserves.

The twins' backstory and motivation? Crammed in super quick. Ultron? Introduced super quick, really should have had more screen time, and then is killed off at the end (I'm really getting sick of Marvel making its villains one-note and killing them off). Thor's side trip vision pool acid trip? Wow...that was very clunky and out of place (I know Whedon was forced to include it, but still, very clunky). Nick Fury just shows up the f**k out of nowhere halfway through. The gem stone stuff I know is important to the Infinity War coming soon, but it's just getting weird and boring and are acting like clunky plot devices/deus ex machinas. And the story's plot just seems to jump from point to point in clunky connection and bad (rushed) exposition (for example Jarvis's hacking of Ultron to prevent the nuclear codes and that scientist quickly introduced just to serve as a plot point later).

This thing really needed a good edit to slash off a couple subplots and characters and focus/spend more time on the really good ideas it had. The talent is all here, but it's just impossible for them to juggle as much as they're trying to here while maintaining the level of quality the smaller more focused single hero Marvel stories do.… Expand

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 anBeing 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.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you just want to see super hero's punch robots and occasionally make a funny remark or learn about Hawkeye's wife and kids, then this is the movie for you. The story was lacking and filled with plot holes. The flashbacks seemed out of place and at one point Thor randomly goes off on his own to explore a magic cave and go for a swim. The Avenger's are never in any real danger and the scenes of them evacuating the city are boring. Does anyone really care that Hawkeye has a family? All of that being said, the action scenes were great, I think the fight between Iron Man and the Hulk was the highlight of the movie. The first Avengers was superior.… Expand

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.… Expand

Was it good? Absolutely. Was it great? If you hadn't seen the first one - maybe. Otherwise it was largely interchangeable: Aliens swapped out for robots, Loki swapped out for Ultron, humanity threatened, heroes fight each other, etc.

Now they added a couple new characters, but left at least one very key character out. The "Marvel Universe" includes the fairly popular Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., led by Agent Coulson. Yet Phil is a no-show for Ultron. He played a key role in the first Avengers and is the lead character in Agents, yet there is not even a whisper about him in this latest outing.

Sorry, but he was perhaps the most relatable character in the first movie and adding a family background to superheroes doesn't change that. Why have a Universe that can't integrate even the most simple, yet germane characters? Moreover, why have this major movie/Universe tie with a struggling TV series (that still carries the Marvel brand) and then fail to actually include even a frayed thread of that tie? It almost seems they are writing off the TV series (and a pretty big character) on purpose. Not good for the 4-7 million viewers that have stuck with that series through thick and thin.

Bottom line: The first Avengers was great, the second largely a rewashed version of the first. We want our Universe to EXPAND, not simply have a dozen different storylines that take place at the same time on the same planet - yet never actually meet. Ultron is a good movie, but give me multiple episodes with Daredevil or even Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. any day. I want a relationship - not another one-night stand with the same person wearing a different wig.… Expand

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.… Expand

La sensación que sentí fue de,Primero de todo, me gustó la película, es decir, es entretenida, muy bien filmada, pasas el rato bien , guiños e Easter Eggs a cholón para los fans... Como todas las marveladas de rigor, pero no me entusiasmó. La sensación que sentí fue de, "otra vez lo mismo, pero mas alargado".

La película, es mas larga que la anterior, (me refiero a Vengadores), lo cual podríamos pensar que esta vez meterían algo nuevo, para que el público vea una película entretenida y además con algo destacable, pues no, Whedon o Marvel Studios, pensaron que es mejor ir a lo seguro y hacer lo mismo otra vez, pero en 2 horas y 40 minutos". Que la gente salió extasiada con la batalla final de la 1, pues metemos el triple de peleas de ese tipo,que Hulk salga liándola parda, pues tomad dos tazas, que gustó las puyas graciosas entre los Vengadores, pues metemos mas, que les moló el rollo OJCURO y REALIZTA, del Capi 2, pues la hacemos OJCURA (sólo un poco) no vayamos a hacer Batman V Superman....OH WAIT!. En otras palabras, la película parece en ciertos momentos los resultados de un satisfactorio estudio de mercado.

Otra cosa que sentí fue una sensación que tuve durante la película, era que parecía que estaba viendo un episodio de una serie de televisión, y me parecía que me he perdido cosas o capítulos, sobretodo al principio de la película, que sientes desorientación, en sentido de...¿me he perdido algo de por medio? ¿por que ha sucedido esto?.

Y es una pena, porque podían haber hecho algo nuevo, que sorprendieran como hizo la primera película, una lastima solamente yendo a lo fácil y 0 riesgo. Pues ya provoca como es en mi caso, que me canse de ver lo mismo, pero su cometido para lo que se hizo este film, lo cumple, busca entretener, nada mas. Pero para algo tan pretencioso, como un universo cinemático y fases, sinceramente, me esperaba más.

Sobre las novedades de la peli, el malo, Ultrón pues es como en el cómic... de los primeros, un villano de opereta simplón, mediocre con plan chorra de destruir el mundo, y muy inferior al brillante Loki de Tom Hiddleston, si, damas y caballeros, Loki se come con patatas a ese trozo de hojalata sin carisma. Los gemelos, pues correctos, y justifican bastante bien lo de que aparezcan en XMEN, ya me entenderéis cuando la veais.

En conclusión, si esperáis algo nuevo, fresco o que sorprenda. No vais a encontrar nada. Solamente el mismo film de siempre. Ni una escena Postcreditos interesante, salvo para el Fanboy de turno que dirá solo maravillas, el resto... bueh, entretenida y ya.… Expand

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.

Adding a buch of titanesque explosions could have been nice back at the time Indepence day came out. When it was something new... If i want a bunch of adrenaline rushing realistic explosion for 2 hours, i just have to go on Youtube... Sorry to all the talented people who really worked well on the movie but the masters of operation are asking them too much and have no real idea of what they are doing... Trying to be Avatar each year may be too optimistic...… Expand

It`s one thing to make movies where you have a solid back story, like Daredevil, Wolverine or Spiderman, even though that is apparently hard too. Even X-Men worked because there was a story there to build off of. It`s quite another to make movies about this bad comic book which only exists because six year olds in the 1970s wanted to "see all the superheroes together!". But there`s no story to work with here. Big threat, must gang up to deal with it. Right, that`s the script done folks! Now for some special effects to cover up that there`s no story! The Avengers is the only Marvel prospect I can think of that`s even worse than Fantastic Four.
But it isn`t the fault of the director. At least not entirely. There literally is no story to work with. I have no idea what made them think they could make more than one movie out of this nonsense. The first one was passable because it focused on Captain America a lot, who does have a decent story to work with. But without that focus this movie is just lame. Thor`s Hammer comic relief is real!

I can`t wait for Antman.....… Expand

Apart from the good fight scenes filled with jam-packed action and trill, along with the pretty good visuals, there is nothing much to get out of the film, considering how much expectations it put on me after seeing the first Avengers. ActingApart from the good fight scenes filled with jam-packed action and trill, along with the pretty good visuals, there is nothing much to get out of the film, considering how much expectations it put on me after seeing the first Avengers. Acting in general was pretty stale, the storyline was rushed and thrown at your face and the film did not give you time to digest the storyline, leaving you kind of at a lost, the character development was weak and the film to me kind off seem to drag on forever. I'm not saying I hate the second Avengers movie (I would give the movie a thumbs up if you are in for the action), but I'm just not feeling it. Overall, I left the cinema kind off underwhelmed and disappointed, to be completely honest.… Expand

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.… Expand

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.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ***************************UPDATED REVIEW - SCORE CHANGE FROM 5 TO 6***********************

The film opens with the Avengers conducting an impeccably choreographed raid on a remote, snowy, forested H.Y.D.R.A stronghold, in the fictional Eastern European nation of Sokovia. We see Hawkeye firing arrows from the back of Jeep while Black Widow drives; Captain America motorbiking through the forest while Ironman flies; Thor swinging his hammer while the Hulk swings his fists; all this action finally culminating in beautifully shot moment when all the Avengers simultaneously exit their respective battles and attack as one - a metaphor for harmony that this group has built amongst themselves since the first film.

However, it will not last. We quickly learn that the spectre of another alien invasion has been plaguing Tony Stark; he believes humanity will be eradicated if there is to be another hostile extraterrestrial incursion. These events are ultimately what lead to his creation Ultron - a global defence program gone horribly wrong. Within moment's of being created, Ultron decides that the best way of keeping the planet safe is by destroying all human life.

This is where the movie's quality begins to decline. Ultron never truly impresses, as his inability to kill off or critically injure any of the six main Avengers diminishes his credibility as a formidable villain - as the writers would have us believe. Black Widow even going the entire film without so much as a scar on her face. Moreover, it reduces the action sequences into a tedium of repetitive and pointless, computer generated violence, used only to satisfy the requirements of the annual summer blockbuster. This is particularly pronounced during a scene in the movie whereby Ultron has captured Black Widow (Scarlet Johannsson) a.k.a Natasha Romanoff. Rather than killing her off - as would be expected of a being whose self-declared purpose is to eradicate humanity (Avengers included) - instead he details to her, with the glibness that has become the central motif of this film, his evil plan to defeat the Avengers and end humanity - can it get any more cliched?

Between the Hulk smashing up Johannesburg and Captain America battling on runaway trains, the movie makes feeble attempts to develop its characters. We learn that Hawkeye is family man by day and one of Earth's Mightiest Heroes by night. Black Widow is now attracted to Bruce Banner in a relationship that feels forced and completely out of place. Oh, and Captain America has reverted to his pre-Winter Soldier self. Never do we get the impression that there's more to these characters than what we've witnessed in the past dozen or so films. How did Romanoff's past influence who she is today? How is Cap dealing with the events of The Winter Soldier? Is there much more to Stark than quippy one-liners and superficial charm? Banner at least tries to convey to us his inner war with the Hulk but Thor however, disappears for almost half the movie, using the time (sort of) to set the stage for 2017's Thor:Ragnarok.

Cast your mind back to 2012's The Avengers. What made that film such a success was getting to see all these explosive personalities clash for the first time on the big screen. At this point in the MCU, we're all familiar with the personality traits of these characters on the surface, and viewers -
having slogged through a dozen or so films of seeing them wreak havoc on a city-wide scale - will be asking for more out of these characters rather than another exhibition of their talents for destruction. However, to the film's peril, Whedon has preferred to avoid the deeper and darker sides of these characters - that battling a genocidal A.I would necessarily reveal - and instead opts to showcase their skill at delivering quippy one-liners and half-hearted philosophical musings.

Ultimately, the forced, disjointed nature of the film, along with the half-hearted involvement of all the characters (heroes and villains alike) are what make this movie feel like an irrelevant, sub-standard film.

Tl;dr: Movie is a rehash of what we've already seen from the MCU. It would have received a higher rating if wasn't as underdeveloped story-wise and character-wise. Relatively uninvolved characters; overly-witty dialogue; massive CG battles. If you don't mind pizza for dinner two nights in a row, then you'll likely love this film.… Expand

Mother always said if you don’t have something nice about someone/something then don’t say anything. I didn’t always listen to mother and in this case I have some things to say.

Our choice of movie going this Friday was “Avengers”,Mother always said if you don’t have something nice about someone/something then don’t say anything. I didn’t always listen to mother and in this case I have some things to say.

Our choice of movie going this Friday was “Avengers”, “Avengers” or “Avengers” and if I don’t go to a movie on Friday the world may shut down so I decided to go see “Avengers: Age of Ultron” with an open mind and though I meant well it didn’t turn out that way. When you watch a movie that is 2 hours and twenty-two minutes long with 2 hours of special effects and twenty minutes of a love story unless the reason you came was for the former then it was a waste of your time. The first time you see a special effect it can deliver but after the same effect is shown for the tenth time it is loud and boring as most of the effects and computer work is in this film. A perfect example is watching the first time Elizabeth Olsen, as Scarlet Witch, throws a psychic fireball until she throws so many you just want the next scene to come.

With the movie directed and written by Joss Whedon the only relief you get from noise is when he concentrates on a romance between Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk and Scarlet Johansson as the Black Widow or when he is showing the home life of Hawkeye, played by Jeremy Renner and his wife played by Linda Cardellini. Hopefully Chris Evans who plays Captain America, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver, Olsen’s twin, will follow the leads of Johnansson, Ruffalo and Iron Man, Robert Downey, Jr., and use their avenger money to make and/or direct independent films.

People who go to see “Avengers: Age of Ultron” and will make it a record breaker, are fans of Marvel comics, comic books, loud special effects with accompanying loud music, shattering glass mindless chases and fights.

I did give the movie a chance but if next time there is a choice of another Avenger’s sequel or one of the many similar looking previews of summer ‘blockbusters’ or not going to a movie on a Friday then I will pick the last choice.… Expand

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.… Expand

The villain is, for NO in-universe reason, a snarky, meta, sarcastic jokester. Because he's Joss Whedon, just like everyone else.

The "romantic" subplot is out of character, self-indulgent, and frankly just awful. Every single moment of it is painful to watch.

Aside from one gorgeous battle at the end, this movie is barely worth seeing.… Expand

You know something's wrong when you enjoy seeing the hero of a movie getting beat up. Black Widow is as vacuous as always - only change was her haircut which made her look plain. Nice work. To be fair, Thor, Banner and Captain America are fun to watch as always. The same can't be said of Ultron who is probably the weakest of all Marvel's weak villains. Badly designed and badly written, it must be said that James Spader does the best with the awful material he's been given.. And of course, as with ALL Marvel films, lots and lots and lots of horrible CGI action with horrible tracking camera shots that are aimed at providing FIST PUMP moments but fail miserably.… Expand

I have to say that i really love the first Avenger movie because not only it's fun but it's also fill with amazing characters.

With that said though Avengers 2 is not like that , actually it's worse than the first Avengers.

Why ? because almost everything in this sequel is just exactly the same , the plot , the conflict or the characters , yes it's still fun popcorn movie to watch with great action scene BUT right now we are in the "Avengers 2" we should have more than just great action scene or mediocre characters or super cliché conflict.

and The worst part of the movie itself is it Villain "Ultron" he is just terrible trying so hard to be this super bad guy but not only he's super cliché but the movie just hype him to be this bad-ass character too much when what we saw now is that he's just another bad guy that just complain about everything and doing nothing , he could possibly be okay in stand-alone movie like Iron Man 4 but not in the Avengers , This is not even count the fact that Ultron in comic is actually really really powerful character while in the movie he fells boring and lackluster.

Overall Avengers: Age of Ultron fells mediocre at best everything is just exactly the same and sometimes even worse than the first Avengers or even Captain American: Winter Soldier a lot of thing fells like Marvel just keeping good stuff out of us too much for this "Infinity War" movies than will hit us in 2018 that is like 3 years from now and if this happen again and again i will probably be bored before this Infinity War movie happen.… Expand

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.)… Expand

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...… Expand
