So after watching it i can say it was a good movie but not great. It leaves much to be desired.
At times it seemed puzzled and didn't quite make sense. The Avengers themselves are pretty solid. Though the jokes kind of seem to be forced at times. The best humour lines were given to Thor who Hemsworth plays brilliantly. Everyone else was their standard self so no complaints there. It was good to see Hawk-Eye with a family which really grounded him and sorted out the lack of care i had for him in the first movie. As for the twins....what a waste of space lol. Quicksilver was completely shit. No spectacular scenes for him except for his death scene which was pretty good. Wanda held promise but seemed to end up no where. I remember seeing her in the beginning and the way she backed out the door quickly and shut the door like something out of The Ring was pretty great. I anticipated more sequences like that but nothing. Olsen played her well with what she was given though. Hulk and Widow, there is deffo chemistry there...but what about Betty??
As for the villain, what a disappointment. I expected better. He was no real threat. I mean i enjoyed his quips and jokes at times but it kind of dampened his whole 'destroy humanity' shtick. Just a boring villain. What a let down. His robot clones were shit too.
The Vision was good though. I liked his introduction. As soon as he lifted the hammer the whole auditorium gasped. I found that scene to be pretty spot on at what it was trying to achieve.
The special effects were pretty shoddy. I spotted so many extremely fake moments that i found to be much better designed in the first movie. The hulks body looked more fake than the first movie though the face looked pretty neat. Ultron was just soooo bad lol as was Iron Mans suit at times. Oh and Visions cape too.
Action wise you cant fault it though it did seem to drag at times. I giggled at all the potshots taken at MOS about civilians being priority,which is all fine and dandy. But you don't have to show the whole of the third act saving them. It was like watching a huge line of passengers board a plane. Very tedious
Anyways not the experience i expected but a good addition to the Marvel franchise.
BTW how did the twins survive the unexploded stark shell.? They said if they moved or if anyone rescued them the shell would have gone off. Weird
Also were they Inhumans or were they just enhanced artificially by Hydra?
Why does Ultron walk like a diva?
Finally....i liked Thor putting the infinity stones shit together and going to look for the guy pulling the strings. But how in Zeus' butt hole did Wandas mind trick make him realise this? She could only show people their worst fears right? not the future.
