An entertaining movie, but suffers from a variety of problems

Rating: 7/10 (7 June 2015)

* WARNING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!* Avengers: Age of Ultron is a decent movie, which provided me with a fairly entertaining movie to kill two and a half hours with, but it was a bit disappointing when compared with the original. One problem I (and a lot of people apparently) had was that there were too many characters and plot lines to keep up with. Thor is hardly in the movie at times (seriously, did anyone see him in the finale?). I also thought the finale dragged, because it was just watching the Avengers smash robots who couldn't even give them any opposition. Most will disagree, but the light-hearted tone of the MCU is wearing very thin, and can really spoil the tension. The positives are that its really fun, has good characters, and a it is funny at times. I think the most well-written scenes are those between Black Widow and Hulk, though their romance feels a little out of the blue. If you like the light-hearted tone, you'll probably like this more, but if you don't, I can't see you liking this movie.
