Avengers: Age of Ultron Review


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Well, they did what I feared. They introduced new characters at such a pace there was almost zero character development therefore I didn't give a crap about them.

The movie just got too big and lost site of the most important part.... The story.

It isn't a bad movie, but it isn't a good movie either. I loved the first avengers and loved captain America 2 even more.

This movie wasn't up to those levels. I'd put it on the same level as the first Thor movie. Watchable for the action and effects which is fun for a summer movie, but not much else.

Spoilers

The Vision fell flat. Yawn.

It's hard not to picture James Spader when Ultron is talking.

X-men version of quicksilver was much better.

Part of my problem, I think, is that I just never really liked any of the Avengers... even in the comics... Hulk was okay, but:

Thor - some god from another realm with a dumb outfit and a magic hammer

Iron Man - a cocky rich prick

Captain America - kinda jingoistic tbqh

Hawkeye - okay, he is pretty cool but his outfit is stupid and the movie kinda made him irrelevant, plus his weaponry is a little dated

Black Widow - meh

Hawkeye has a more prominent role in this movie.

I've always found Thor a strange choice for a super hero. He's a major figure in Norse religion. To me it's kind of like making a comic book super hero out of Jesus Christ, that walks on water, has a healing factor, can multiply food and turn water into wine. 

 

Wouldn't it be kind of sweet if they made a super hero that could kill bad guys by turning all of the water in their bodies to wine?

Sounds like my new best friend.

 

Just be glad they're not bringing Hercules to the screen. But way back when they announced they were making an Iron Man movie they released it before Hulk because they thought it wouldn't do as well. Oops.

    • Here is what it said about him coming out of college: Overview A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.
    • Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games. 
    • I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
