The Avengers Movie Review (Spoiler Free)

HI there again.  It was an awesome start for my blog.  Thanks so much for all those who checked and left messages on FB regarding this!  Thank you and keep on supporting.

THE AVENGERS MOVIE REVIEW (SPOILER FREE)
(I hope I can keep it that way)


How can I start, since we got the Ironman Movies, Captain America, Hulk and Thor there is just this unexplained urge of anxiety for this movie to come.  I promised a spoiler free review, specially for our friends who will be seeing it on the 5th of May.

Well as a kid and said it before, I was astound of the imagination of the characters from DC and Marvel along with other Superhero and Super Robot stuffs.  It was from TV, Newspapers, Magazines to Comics.  Along that line, Marvel's Avengers is a promising concept from Marvel back then.  Comprising of multiple heroes banded together to save the world ---- Well is that's not promising enough, not to mention the organization known as SHIELD and their toys.  High Tech arsenal of weaponry, cool rides and the Helicarrier --- all of us kids then were in awe.

Now, to see them one by one re-created to adopt our modern era, re-imagined and done on a live-action movie was something --- gathering them together and forging one ultimate superhero movie --- RIVETING!

Lets rate the movie by stars.  5 Stars being the highest.

MOVIE EXPERIENCE *****

The movie experience was superb.  I love the long lines and watching people in anticipation for a movie.  While watching, I love the fact that the audience feel and are one with the film.  Laughing at the funny parts of the scenes, excited and screaming on the climax and exciting parts.  Also, the best part is that we bought food but could not even look at the food and fries would fall coz, we just couldn't take our eyes off the big screen.  It was a lot of fun, it was also a wonderful chance for me and my kids to share something in common, to bond and be closer as father and sons.

My sons were very happy and with us is a friend of my eldest, we rushed to nearest toys store afterwards and checked the Avengers line available.  My youngest was so into the movie, he was role playing and kept on saying..... Now I love the Hulk!


STORY *****

The story was greatly done and the movie was well executed.  All of the expected mishaps and bitz of both what was cultivated in our minds from the early story, ultimates, new avengers animation and the movie adaptation was well incorporated.

Loved the way it was a team but not a team, on how alliances were forged and how trust were earned by all of the characters involve.  It was non-stop fun.  I WAS RIVETED!  It's like my eyes were glued to the big screen.

I was wrong to have expected less when marvel was now owned by Disney.  I really thought it would be corny and go off what had been started.

SPECIAL EFFECTS *****

I got to say the effects were way better than I expected.  I really thought that Michael Bay and ILM did an awesome job with the Transformers Franchise, but comparing this with the recent DOTM movie..... DOTM 4 stars vs AVENGERS perfect 5!

I seen the Ironman Armors, the way he fights.  I seen how Thor was taken from the comics and made him real perfectly or Capt America or even The Hulk, but when the Helicarrier first took flight, I had goosebumps almost the same when I saw Optimus Prime first transformed.

The effects for me was flawless, specially the ending part.  I was expecting more from Fury in the action but was made up by Hawkeye, Black Widow and Maria Hill.

ACTORS/ACTRESS (CHARACTERS) **** 

One less star for changing again Banner for the Hulk.  Mark Ruffalo is no Edward Norton but well played.  I also think aside from the budget cuts to get most of the actors back and seeing Pepper Potts in it, Norton would have been awkward to see as a brilliant scientist, he was great in the Hulk movie as a fugitive Banner but Ruffalo well played the genius Banner.

Loved everyone in the cast, appreciated even Agent Coulson (Dunno if I got it right), I was looking for General Ross though.  No more Human Torch for Chris Evans - Perfect Captain America!

RECOMMENDATION:

A Must see movie, it all worth it! Perfect reason to bond with your family especially your kids.  I'm watching it again in 3D.  Hope everyone enjoys it the way we did.
