Uneven

Rating: 6/10 (18 May 2015)

First off I need to clarify: I did like the film overall. That being said it is very uneven. Aall of the scenes related to the 'main' plot involving Ultron, Strucker, The Maximoffs etc. were fine, no problem there. The problems arrive in the completely unnecessary and very tacked on sub-plots. A subplot involving a very poorly written romance between Hulk and Black widow that feels like it was written by a completely different author than the rest of the movie, and a bizarre subplot about Hawkeye not being there for his family and constantly alluding to remodeling his house? I'm sorry I just don't understand why either of these subplots were included except maybe to pad out the running time, or because people complained about Black Widow's and Hawkeye's seeming "unimportance" in the first film. So overall a good flick, but the uneven nature prevents me from truly recommending it.
