It rang completely hollow.Ĥ) The Humor - There were WAY too many jokes in this movie, and that wouldn't have been all that bad if so many of them weren't eye rollers. We're basically told by the script writer that these two people are in love, but never are we SHOWN that they're falling in love. That pretty much sums up this whole filmģ) The Love Interest - Totally underdeveloped. That's all the audience ever really knows about this story and it felt flat and unfulfilling.Ģ) Plot? - The movie opens with our heroes in the middle of a battle for reasons that are largely unimportant. Ultron wants to blow up the world, the Avengers try to stop him. There was not a compelling story to be told here. There were so many things that ruined this movie for me.ġ) The Storytelling - Or lack thereof. It hurts to rate this so poorly, but it certainly deserves the low marks. Felt so bland Reviewed by poisonlotus Vote: 3/10 You are crazy if you rate it higher than 6. I have now changed my 6/10 rating to 1/10 simply to try and lower the rating to what it deserves.īefore you Marvel nerds attack me, I am doing this because this movie is average at most. So I was sippy sipping on my mug of tea and I almost spat it out all over my screen. Thank you for reading, and I know that at least somebody will agree with me. Just be prepared for a completely different film to the film marketed in the trailers. This movie is definitely NOT a must see, but I guess it is for any fans of the comics. You can mark this review as unhelpful, but I don't care. The CGI effects were absolutely incredible, and there are shots in the trailers that would reveal his plan if they were extended by a few seconds, so keep an eye out.īy the end of this review, I can finally figure out one word to sum this up. When Ultron's plans were finally revealed, everything turned amazing. Remember Scarlet's gut-wrenching scream, or maybe Ultron saying "There's no strings on me" in the teaser trailer? Well guess what? Nowhere to be found.īut there's one last thing that makes me feel at least a bit satisfied with the movie, and that was the last act. I wanted a dark, gritty, intense, heart-breaking, half-horror movie! The advertising for this movie is false, almost to the point where I could sue. Ultron was nothing like he was in the teaser trailer that got me hyped, nor was the movie. If I can say one thing, it's that the action sequences were fantastic, and they're the only things that hold this movie up. I kept twitching in my seat various different times.
But I guess I could say that it doesn't translate to screen very well.Īfter that, the movie becomes kind of dull. If this was how it was in the comics, then I suppose I can't really complain much. Can anyone explain to me how this invisible force can suddenly SPEAK inside a whole load of technological material? I don't know. I adored Scarlet Witch and her powers, at least in the parts that she's ACTUALLY IN.Īfter the opening, everything goes downhill, at least SLIGHTLY. Considering they're new characters, and considering one is in an upcoming movie and the other dies, they should have gotten more development. Unfortunately, they get tossed a side a bit. I'm not American, y'know) characters in this movie. These ended up being my favourite (Yes, I'm spelling it right. The Avengers are introduced for the sequel, and so are two new characters: Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.
Welcome to my review.Īge of Ultron opens to a fine start -in fact, an amazing start- with a fresh, intense, action-packed sequence. But things like 'good' or 'amazing' are too crazy to use. I won't use 'eh' because that's a bit too vague, and I think it's a bit better than that. There's no one word that can some up this movie.
