Waiting for Round 2 of Round 2

Rating: 8/10 (2 May 2015)

Like the first Avengers, I liked it up front. With each of the following viewings, my "liking" of it grew more and more into pure LOVE. I liked Part 2 after my first of inevitable multiple viewings to come. It was hilarious at times, darker, more adult and relished in taking a ton from both the original Avengers movies plus many things from the other MCU films. I wouldn't call it perfect, as I noticed a few too many questions I couldn't answer by the end. Also, some of the scenes were just rehashing both scenes and plot devices in its predecessor. I do believe, at least, the questions will be answered with my second (or more) viewings. And speaking of which, I don't think this is a ONE-TIME viewing movie. There is a TON of stuff here to absorb – an almost countless number of subplots, relationships, motives, backgrounds, flashbackscome to think about it, why they didn't break this movie into two, like they plan for Avengers 3a and 3b, it beyond me. Perhaps Whedon knew this was his last shot, so he just threw everything in. Whatever. I still liked what came out. I refuse to give specific details of the movie on what I liked or sucked or plot points or scenesas enough spoilers have been shot around the internet as it is. Probably once this has been around awhile and I've had 1 or 2 more viewings, I'll open up more. Until thenAssemble to your nearest theatre!
