The age of size of a match: short but bright

Rating: 7/10 (7 May 2019)

Once you start doing something it's hard to stop. That's the case with the Avengers: even without the imminent and devastating danger they keep working together even on issue of local scale, which gives us the opportunity to see the pompous show-off and some cool teamwork. However, when it comes to such a grand title we expect something massive to happen. What can possibly be bigger that the attack from outer space?
Apparently, there are many ways to endanger the peace on the planet, and, as it mostly happens, the reason is a human mistake. The artificial intelligence always has scared people and the idea of it getting evil has troubled the minds of many geniuses over times. The most prominent example is the Terminator. So here comes the Marvel interpretation of the AI problem with a savior-turned-villain creation of Tony Stark that grew its twisted conscience and decided to make the world better.
The creators have an enormous collection of good and bad characters; I really appreciate the effort of introducing us to more and more unique figures of the universe, which makes every movie a surprise for every fan. The stand-off between the two opposing sides kicks off several times and, frankly, every encounter gets better and better.
The dark cloud that shades the sun here is the talks. The long, boring and repeating speeches explaining the reasoning. Sure, they make the bad guy look worse and the armor on our knights shine better, however, the preciseness is a key to success.
On the side of the action one can say that the sequel has kept the pace and even tried to outperform the predecessor. From a nice team fight to a duel of a year that was on everyone's mind to even bigger final clash. The hallmark of a franchise is a slow-motion group interlude, which looks cool but only there to stress the fact that it's not a solo movie feels overused but what won't you do to please the fans.
I am going to go ahead and say that the idea is not new but still interesting and with a few novel tricks up the creators' sleeves, however, the outcome of a story is a little bit disappointing. Some might say that it wrapped up too easily and I will totally agree, Ultron with all its computational power turned to be just an improved version of my pocket calculator - I hoped for more.
Dipping the feather into the ink I will end up this history chapter by saying that the 'age' is a too big word, because the length of this "reign" was hysterically short although it for sure was impressive. The second part did a solid job but it didn't jump as high as the pioneer of the franchise, all my hopes are that we will get some more stories that next generations will wish they could have watched on the time of the premiere.
