Just watched Ultron, liked it better than the first

Avengers

Avengers: Age of Ultron

340

I watched Age of Ultron last night, me and my friends both liked it better than the original Avengers. I thought it was better storytelling and better filming, itbhad some pretty funny bits too. We all thought the first was overrated, but what do you guys think?

    Too much Hawkeye. I was hoping they would kill him off. Wouldn't mind Black Widow to get killed but all the teens would be very heartbroken. Oh here's my secret family. Oh cool, how is his important to preparing the team to stop the danger? Oh it doesn't? It just allows us to make this movie longer than two hours. Edit: Action and visuals much better but story was still as weak as the first one. I was entertained but way too obvious setting up for future movies going on in this sequel.

  • My only complaint is nothing really, I liked basically everything even the kind of weak parts I really enjoyed

  • I was a bit disappointed with AoU. The twins -blam!-ed up the avengers more in that one fight than Ultron ever really did. He just kind of built robots and didn't do anything that would just make you go, "holy shit that was -blam!-ing brutal." I wanted Ultron to be this super badass AI that just left the crowd in awe, not just an upset AI with an opinion and a plot. Don't get me wrong i still liked Ultron, he was just kind of disappointing. The action was great at first but by the end of the movie it felt kind of boring because, at least for me, it didn't feel like Ultron was a huge threat and the fights felt like i had already seen them. I did enjoy watching the movie though, it's worth going to go see. I give it a 7/10 [spoiler]tl;dr ultron was kind of meh and it felt boring at the end. The movie was still enjoyable though.[/spoiler]

        • I'm not one for criticism, but... [spoiler]The Vision giving Thor his hammer made me react like, "Did you see that too? Yes? Okay, I'm not crazy." Also, when I'd heard about one of the Avengers dying, and when I saw Hawkeye's family, I immediately thought he'd die. Don't judge me, I'm macabre. Anyway, I liked the comedy, especially when the Vision was talking to the last Ultron minion and says, "Well, I [i]was[/i] born yesterday."[/spoiler]

            I give Age of Ultron a 7.5/10 while I give the first Avengers a 9/10. [b]This "review" will be full of SPOILERS![/b] Now, let's begin: [spoiler]Things I liked: Action was great, core Avengers was fine, I liked Tony and Banner working together in the lab, Vision was nice, some of the humor is good. IE "I could shoot him and nobody would know" etc. I liked QS and Scarlet Witch. Hulkbuster v Hulk was best scene in movie IMO "Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep, I'm sorry". Party scene was great and showed each character's main personality. Vision giving Thor his hammer was unexpected and nice. It was good that they gave some character development to Hawkeye since he didn't really do much in Avengers 1. Things I didn't liked The movie felt rushed, Ultron was created and then all of a sudden he was bad. Nick Fury shows up out of nowhere in the barn, I thought that in the end of Iron Man 3 Tony said that he was going to retire, and they took the reactor out of his chest but at the beginning of AoU, he's back with everybody else. Hulk/Black Widow romance didn't work at all. Some of the humor also didn't work "Beep beep", "If I could throw up I would," "For God's sake" etc. How come nobody mentions QS after he dies? Scarlet screams and Hawkeye stares at him then never mentioned again. Thor goes into the pool sees some vision of the future then its over like it never happened. How come Vulture/Falcon was at the end but he wasn't in the movie at all? What was the point of keeping Black Widow in the jail, why didn't Ultron kill her? Ultron just also seemed weak and had too much humor, IE On the bus versus Cap. Even though Tony created this whole war, everybody at the end was all nice to each other and Tony I guess is not responsible for his actions. Also, where was Loki?[/spoiler] I'll probably think of more stuff and edit this later, but that's the main idea of my thoughts about Age of Ultron.

            • I liked it. After watching the movie I got Jolder's Hammer, and two matches later I tied my most kills (23) and got my highest score (5,280). It also helped snapped a 7 game losing streak, when my cousin called me to go see it.

            • It was good, but I felt a bit empty at the end. 1 I felt totally geeked out, had lots of great iconic moments. This one with the exception of the [spoiler]hulk vs iron man fight[/spoiler] Just seemed rushed, I did like the encouragement speech that Hawkeye gave [spoiler]" I'm on a floating city, we are fighting an army of robots, and I have a bow and arrow... Nothing makes sense"[/spoiler] But some intrinsic element just didn't exist in this movie for me.

                Spoiler! [spoiler]Honestly, Ultron had more personality than any of the Avengers, so it was kind of difficult to root against him/it/them (I'm not sure of the correct pronoun). Also, I'm kind of disappointed that they opted to kill the speedy twin, as his sister was kind of boring imo. Although, it was nice to see that they decided to give Hawkeye some character depth. I enjoyed both movies, but Age of Ultron seemed to drag a little bit. Less action, more dialog, etc. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but I feel like it was still missing something. [/spoiler]

                • First one was better. We will never get the same impact as we did the first time with Avengers. That being said it was a great film and more Avengers which is also great.

                  • The first one was like an event. Seeing all the Avengers in one place was mind blowing. However, Age of Ultron was better even without that feeling. Plus those action scenes were amazing.
