An old dog with fleas

Rating: 1/10 (20 February 2016)

Age of Ultron is a tiresome flick. The characters are the same as expected but Iron Man has become more snobbish and self centered. The character has gone over the top with his abilities to the point where the writers of the script give him carte blanche which makes Tony Stark in to an annoying 4 yr old.
The Hulk is better CG, which is a good thing, but now he isn't the same Bruce Banner who has uncontrolled rage and then forgets every thing he did while as The Hulk. The writers have had to change his character because, uncontrolled, he becomes a loose canon. You can't give him any real dialog. Which ruins the character for me because I grew up with him being this blind rage of power going off to smash puny bad guys while saving good people who are scared of him.
Marvel has become this lack luster pile of poop which is pushing out crappy movie after crappy movie to cash in on the popularity of comic book characters. This has caused movies like Age of Ultron to stink.
There are some serious plot holes in the script but I'm not going to dwell on it. With out them the movie is still sub-par. The supporting cast is pushed through the movie like a scrap meat being put through a grinder.
Captain America is flat. Barton is a worthless character. Black Widow is only eye candy. Thor is Thor, I honestly don't think they could screw him up. Nick Fury is... terrible. This Vision is too limited.
The creators of these movies keep trying to cram too much in to the story when it took dozens of issues to build up just one character. Too much is lost on The Vision and his backstory by shoving him in to the final ten minutes of the movie as a escape for the writers.
I watched Age of Ultron on Amazon and it took less than five minutes of the movie to make me want to start fast forwarding. I'm glad I didn't pay top dollar to see this in the theater. It wouldn't have been worth the money.
