It was undoubtedly good. It was for the most part entertaining and was a very interesting movie to watch. It wasn’t perfect and at times it was kind of boring, but it was still good.

The Avengers. This is an Avengers-level threat! A real movie boom! Assemble a team of superheroes and watch them fight. All the actors performed their roles perfectly, and the title theme is forever recorded in the memory.

In fact, heWith The Avengers, Joss Whedon had the impossible task of taking four different franchises with loose connective tissue, and bringing them all together for a massive superhero team-up adventure. And my word, does he pull it off. In fact, he absolutely nails it. These characters, as different as they are, feel like they belong together in this movie. The talent of the actors portraying them, paired with Whedon's witty dialogue, makes for excellent banter.

The movie actually gets off to a rocky start, with the first five minutes or so feeling oddly cheap, but after the title card comes up, it's an absolute blast from beginning to end. This film provided me with one of the best theater-going experiences I've ever had, and even after watching it upwards to 20 times at home, it has never gotten old.

The characters are great. The action is mind-blowing. There's tons of heart. It might not be the deepest examination of these characters that we've ever seen, but this is what blockbuster filmmaking is all about. The Avengers promised a massively fun mashup of crazy and powerful comic book characters, and Joss Whedon has masterfully fulfilled that promise.… Expand

Quite a serious film at times that has inappropriate comic relief, but still it kind of all works. It I had to nit pick it was more of skirmish than a full on army battling the heroes.

Joss Whedon perfectly manages a large group of charasmatic characters with big egos played by an amazing cast of actors. After phase 1 we are treated to this incredible, inspired battle royale. The mischievous Loki (Hiddleston) with some mysterious influence attacks New York with a galactic army of Aliens. Good thing sassy Iron Man played by an amazing Robert Downey Jr., mega hunky with inspired comic timing Thor (Hemsworth), sexy Hawkeye (Renner), the fierce Hulk (Ruffalo) and gorgeous all American boy Captain America (Evans). But the real scene stealer here is a kick ass, smart, fantastically executed Black Widow played by Scarlett Johansson. The movie is definitely one of the best of it's kind as well as being one of the most entertaining ever made.

Budget: $220m
Box Office: $1.519b

But walking out of the theater, all I felt was that I had seen 2.5 hours of nothing but action and drama. Maybe that's its purpose? Maybe it's just not my cup of tea? For whatever reason, I was not invested. This is hardly an interesting or exciting film, and I see no reason for the rave reviews or exceptional $$ it is making.

I suppose it has something to do with being a "fan"; as I said earlier, I am in no way a "fan" of hero movies but this one got such good reviews that I had to check it out. I was disappointed because, surprise surprise, it felt EXACTLY like every other superhero movie that had ever been made. Even more so since its a combination of all of the previous heroes into one film. So really, it's not original, or different, or exciting, or moving, or anything. It just IS.… Expand

The Avengers

Whedon is much better a writer than he is a director. On a scale of McQuarrie, disappointingly Joss Whedon, the director, wouldn't even qualify as one. For when it comes to map the ever longed battles by the fans, he takes things lightly a lot. Whatever glory that bedazzles you on the screen, is a pure feat of bravery on paper not on screen. Too much cheese and too much sweet, his self-earned jaw dropping moments, are spoiled by him by the bitter afterbirth of his fandom. Fortunately, these battles are here as the starters, the main course is the "build-up" to that battle.

Whether then you watch gleefully these characters argue egotistically or see a train of awe-gasping moves by them to overpower each other on screen. There lies a profound poetry between these moments where you can see 8 year old Whedon playing with his toys in his room, creating banal engaging scenarios between Captain and Tony. This crowd pleasing franchise saw the maybe-expected uplift from this chapter, as it managed to bring out every adored content, from humor to drama to juicy visual effects. The dollars were written in the script and so it was visible on screen.

Among all the triumphs of Whedon, his biggest is combining these behemoth figures and weave out a compelling conversation that is worth ten times any battle shown. Downey is the singular actor that comes out with a sigh, his performance isn't interfered by the intertwining of multiple plots, which it seems like it did to others. If aligned the priorities of the makers, the characteristics of the characters that evolves into an essential element in the storytelling, is their way in, for this safe formula wasn't inscrutable enough to convince us that these guys, The Avengers, can avenge.… Expand

This movie also becomes more and more special every year due to the rest of the MCU being heavily effected by it (see Daredevil, Spider-Man: Homecoming, basically all of the TV shows), which makes the movie feel huge in context.

The Avengers is the first team-up film in the MCU and follows the crew as they argue for a while before teaming up to fight some aliens that are invading Earth thanks to Loki opening up a portal. Even when I watched The Avengers for the firstThe Avengers is the first team-up film in the MCU and follows the crew as they argue for a while before teaming up to fight some aliens that are invading Earth thanks to Loki opening up a portal. Even when I watched The Avengers for the first time back in 2012, I didn't think that the story was all that special. This is a long film, and for most of it we just sit around watching the heroes talk. There are a few action set pieces throughout the film, such as when Thor, Loki, and Iron Man (and Captain America) have a pretty awesome scuffle, but besides that it's a whole lot of chatter and not a whole lot of anything else. And it doesn't help that these conversations aren't particularly interesting. The final battle in the city is cool, but there's nothing particularly jaw-dropping about it either. The story here is just...okay. I will say that having watched the first Captain America film it was cool to see Steve interact with the son of a man that he considered a friend, and slowly realize that he's a bit of a douche. Steve and Tony's dynamic is by far the most entertaining in the film (and possibly the MCU, which makes sense given the future these two have). As to be expected by this point with MCU films, the cinematography is great. Of course, this is also the film where we get the iconic shot of The Avengers as they assemble on the battlefield, which was cool to see. In the end, though, while everything in this film is solid, I don't find it to be particularly mind-blowing. And really a big part of the reason why I don't like to watch this one very often is because of the long run-time. There's nothing in this film that makes me want to sit down for 2.5 hours and watch it, unless I'm doing an MCU marathon.… Expand

Diversos elementos nesse filme funcionam muito bem. Temos personagens que, por si só, já são interessantes e carismáticos, e esse até então não era o desafio. Acontece que o roteiro sabe muito bem como conduzir a visão de cada um sem que isso parecesse forçado, na realidade, até se acrescenta ao personagem. Isso fica muito mais evidente para quem assistiu os filmes subsequentes e percebe muito bem referências que são, na realidade, futuras a trama. Loki é super carismático e fez com que amássemos o odiar, ocupando perfeitamente o papel do vilão. O início da relação entre o Cap. América e Tony Stark é no mínimo intrigante, e cada um parece ter sua verdade em determinados momentos.

Se tem uma coisa que funciona bem aqui é o alívio cômico. Nos pega em momentos certeiros, são bem engraçados e quebra o clima pesado - que não é o propósito do filme. As cenas de luta são boas de modo geral, com claro destaque aquelas onde o plano é mais aberto e se utilizam dois ou mais heróis, combinando seus poderes; é lindo e extremamente satisfatório de se ver. A OST é marcante e funcional. Emociona e representa muito bem a equipe. Os efeitos especiais são excelentes para a época e convencem muito bem.… Expand

I love seeing this characters meet for the first time. I love to see them talk and argue (although it can be a little grating on rewatch since we've already see them become friends).

Those are my favorite moments of this movie. Scenes like Tony talking to Bruce about how the Hulk saved his life, Steve and Coulson chatting on the way to the helicarrier and Steve and Tony arguing about sacrifice (something which will be payed off in Endgame).

It's simple. You take a bunch of characters I like and put them in a room together. That's what most of this movie is and that's why I like it so much. The action is great and all, but it's those little moments that keep me returning.

Also, the scene with Loki in Germany is one of the best scenes in all of the MCU.

Is it perfect? No. Is it corny? Of course. Is it as emotionally effective as future movies? No.

It's the perfect end of the MCU's first act. You see the personalities we've been exposed to throughout the past movies finally clash, and there's a perfect amount of banter and golden interactions that make it so, so worth it. There is not a single wasted moment in this film, every single scene serves a myriad of good purposes for both the film's plot progressing, making us laugh, investing us in characters, developing unique relationships... the list goes on. Really, the only place this movie stagnates is the final act and the final battle, which gets a little hard to watch after some time because it just drags on for so long. But if a movie only loses my interest slightly on one part but still manages to give me goosebumps with amazing dialogue and line delivery after the 30th time I've watched it? Hey, no skin off my nose. It just sucks that this director went on to direct the worst Marvel movie after this. Oh well!… Expand

Good fighting sequences but camerawork feels too crazy and made it quite difficult to fully enjoy the great choreography.

I gotta admit I was not ready for all that shaky-cam action. I mean, you could clearly see that the choreography for the fight scenes was good enough for a superhero movie, but why did you have to add so much shaking and cutscenes?

I was expecting wall-to-wall action, pretty much from the start - especially given the forces that join together. However, I felt the first half of 'The Avengers' as slow. What also didn't help is that the villain, carried over from a preceding MCU film, isn't super interesting - we also don't see the antagonist's earlier film counterpart for a fair few scenes, which felt too delayed.

The last half is much better, which allowed me to enjoy myself properly. Robert Downey Jr., while not as entertaining as he is on his own, brings goodness, as do the likes of Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth.

I'm not a big fan of recasts, though Mark Ruffalo as Hulk is a positive one; even if that took a bit away from the novelty of all the superheroes joining, given we hadn't seen Ruffalo himself before. Added to Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow, at least in terms of the film franchise, getting major screen time out of nowhere - having been a bit part character in her debut MCU appearance.

The music is noteworthy, while everything looks brilliant. Overall and in short: It's a fun, good action film - I just expected greater.… Expand

Everyone was going crazy. Meanwhile I, who didn't know the basics of comic book superheroes, was wondering why are Superman, Batman and Spider-Man not on the cover of this movie. Just a few years ago I watched all the movies from the franchise when Infinity War came out just to know what the fuss was all about. And now that I see it, I understand why it was such a huge deal.

After the events of Thor, Loki comes on earth to steal the Tesseract from SHIELD, and he does manage to do that. Meanwhile all the superheroes are getting their own relations straight so that they can team up and fight the bad guy. All the characters are shown to be in the places where they had been at the end of their respective movies. Although what they are doing is not very interesting, it is somewhat a realistic deptiction of what kinds of characters they are. And then they all come together, beat Loki and save the day. A pretty straightforward story moved by character development.

There are a number of things I like about this movie. The scene where their airship's propeller stops working so Iron Man spins it so fast that it stabilises. It showed how strong and fast Iron Man is. There was also the scene where Iron Man goes through the portal and throws the missile away. It completely contradicts what Captain America considered him to be, showing how his character developed over the duration of the movie. I also like how Tony goes to have a word with Loki and tells him that the Avengers have a Hulk against his entire army. I mean I could literally go on about what a badass Iron Man was throughout the movie.

Then there were Thor and Hulk. I really liked Thor ever since I first heard of him. He literally looks like a Norse god capable of highly destructive powers. Hulk, on the other hand, I didn't like him very much when I heard about him. Even in The Incredible Hulk he wasn't really entertaining. But here he actually feels like a very strong guy who has been trapped in the body of Bruce Banner. He gets angry every time someone calls him Bruce instead of Hulk, which shows how much he is struggling for his identity. Thor is just as awesome as I thought him to be. I always have a soft spot for superheroes who wear a cape.

The visual effects were done really nicely. Though the impact of their powers wasn't very hard, but it's a campy movie. What can we possibly expect? It's from an era where every fight scene needed to have a comic relief who would tell jokes in the middle of the fight, be it Gimli from Lord of the Rings, Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars or Hound from Transformers. But the destruction was surely visible. Most of the shots are done from the point of view of a bystander. That is something I really like; it's literally the reason why I like Monsterverse. It is seen especially in the scene where Hulk rides the giant snake robot.

Though there are a lot of things that I didn't like about this movie. First of all, the campiness. Obviously in today's time it's quite an easy thing to dismiss saying that back in 2012 movies were meant to be campy as the superhero genre hadn't been utilised properly, but the very same year The Dark Knight Rises came and the next year Man of Steel came. Both of them had the mature touch to it. Even the MCU movies before and after this one like Thor and Captain America: The Winter Soldier looked more mature than this baby thing. The other criticism I have towards this is Black Widow and Hawkeye. I hate botht he characters, and even more I hate how they are easily beating bad guys who are clearly stronger than them.

The jump cuts of this movie are also very annoying. Every fight scene, especially the ones which have Black Widow in them, have like, a dozen scene cuts just to show that Natasha did a cartwheel, got on the bad guy's shoulders and snapped his neck. The same goes for Captain America and Hawkeye also. Not even once has Hawkeye shot anything in one take. It's something that can be easily shown even with a stunt double.

Obviously this doesn't look special anymore, since I watched it after Infinity War had released, so there wasn't much of a surprise other than the fact that it's a team up movie. It has a good place in my memory so I wouldn't want to rewatch it and tamper its reputation. It's good in its place, it's a product of its time. It should stay that way. It's a one time watch in case you haven't seen it.… Expand

I've been a fan of the superhero genre since I was a child. Superheroes fascinate me because they have superhuman abilities and they can accomplish amazing feats that a regular human can't. And what I like more than a movie with a superheroI've been a fan of the superhero genre since I was a child. Superheroes fascinate me because they have superhuman abilities and they can accomplish amazing feats that a regular human can't. And what I like more than a movie with a superhero is a movie with multiple superheroes! I love team-ups. When I first saw this movie back in 2012, it blew my goddamned mind. The scale of it, the number of superheros, the CGI. I honestly believed this movie was the peak of superhero movies and that nothing will ever beat it. In retrospective, I was of course wrong... Fortunately.

Not only is this movie very good on its own, but the fact that there was a build-up to it from the previous movies that also established our main characters makes it even better. I watched all the other movies that lead up to The Avengers. I absolutely love the cohesion of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.… Expand

Every superhero has a moment here and it doesn't seem overpaid. The story is excellent and the main villain Loki is, in my opinion, one of the best villains Marvel has ever had.

It was easy to overlook the faults at the time because it was so amazing that Captain America and Iron Man were in the same movie, but they have definitely done better team up movies since.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Avengers is a movie that could’ve easily been a mess and turned out to be a masterpiece thanks to Joss Whedon. The movie nicely culminates the five ones that came before it in the MCU and gives all of the Avengers moments to shine. The action is fantastic, the visuals raise the bar for future MCU films, and the movie ends on a high and satisfying note that leaves plenty of room for future character development and storytelling. The script gives each of the Avengers moments to show us who they are and how they fit into this broader universe. Loki is a great villain for this film due to him being a familiar face and having a direct connection to one of the Avengers, and Tom Hiddleston again gives a strong performance as the character, which is all bolstered by the script giving him a few moments to shine and one-liners as well. The acting in general is good, with both new and familiar faces doing the best they can with their roles. Renner is done a bit dirty in the film, but the big battle redeems that slightly and Renner makes the best of the screen time he has. Unlike some previous MCU movies, this one has lots of rewatch value and will still be entertaining to many on multiple viewings. Overall, The Avengers was a fantastic first culmination for the MCU and set the bar very high for future movies like it.… Expand
