Avengers Age of Ulthron 2015

The avenger wasn’t just a block buster it was a mega-blockbuster and rewrote the holly wood play book in the summer of 2012. It wasn’t just about power full franchises any more .now it was about franchises that would link into a super franchise. Sony got anxious to expand their spider man universe in a similar fashion as marvel has done in build up to avengers. Writer/director joss whedonm (TVs buffy the vampire slayer) was the master mined behind the jaunty smash-em-up fun of avengers and was quickly signed on the sequal after the billion dollar marked was crossed. With great success comes great of upsetting that continued success comes great risk of upsetting that continued success.

As aspect of age of ultron it was conscious the heroes are about mitigating collateral damage and especially human causalities.at every turn, the avengers are thinking about saving those caught in the cross hairs first. They go out of their way to save those left behind, it would be distigenuous of me to say age of ultron is entertaining, the action makes good use of various heroes and their abilities, providing fun combos like cap hurling his super shield so thor can re direct further with his hammer, the use of humor was one of the bigger enjoyments of the avengers and while its still abundant and enjoy able here as well I’d say it’s overdone. When every character is cracking quips every fourth line of a dialogue, it pulls you out of the movie and the stakes feel lesser, the running joke where the avangers make fun of captain America for his prudish sensibilities on profanity is a joke that works at first but then loses all sense of fun as it's pounded into the ground on repetition. The larger set pieces each have their moments to delight, especially the opening and the Hulk vs. Iron Man battle. Age of Ultron isn't a bad movie and it has some truly great moments and great character moments and payoffs, but it's only momentsIt's sure to set box-office records and I imagine fans of the original will happily lap up another super team-up, but Avengers: Age of Ultron is something of a disappointment for me. The more I think about it the fun parts become a little duller and I find more areas of criticism. It's just not as fun a movie experience, and that's due to the rushed and muddled story and too many characters. After the critical and commercial success of the first film, I doubt that Whedon could have produced a film that would live up to the sky-high expectations, but that doesn't excuse the finished product.
