A loud but very good super sequel

Rating: 8/10 (29 April 2015)

Rating-8/10
Avengers: Age of Ultron is a Marvel made sequel that ties up what we want from not only the first movie, but the entire cinematic universe under Marvel. Age of Ultron is a very good sequel and also one that improves upon It too with the people behind the scenes and on camera too all making a big improvement. It builds upon what we saw in the first movie and then improves it and opens up a whole new can of worms in which I am sure will feature heavily in future movies in the series and elsewhere.
The film is not only incredibly loud, but also just generally a big film and you really don't get too much bigger than this one. The fighting, the special effects and even the cast are just big, and with such a huge budget for a movie(around or just over $250 million) you can't really expect any less. As I mentioned the cast, well yes Thor is huge and the Hulkbut what I mean is we see so many new characters and people and even random extras, this is just hugely epic and one that doesn't shy from giving many people the spotlight.
On to the cast at acting now and they all come back well and one point that really sticks out is that no one character or actor stands out, they stand their ground and stick to it hard. The cast are stylish as ever and also even funnier with of course not only Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark/Iron man cracking the jokes but also Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo and a surprisingly funny Don Cheadle who really works well with the rest of the avengers and makes you really chuckle quite a bit.
And now onto the funny bits, well to be fair there are too many to mention. This is truly typical Marvel comedy but probably or maybe possibly at that the funniest film by them and all credit goes to not only the actors but also Joss Whedon for creating and directing the great lines. Whedon is the true mastermind and blends the humour well with the more serious moments, and although it can seem a little too jumpy between each, it still pays off.
I will say this movie is slightly overly futuristic and can feel like the Sci-Fi meter is off the charts. It feels a bit random as we do expect though as lasers and incredibly big spaceships, weapons etc etc join the fight. Now yes you can say "but they have superpowers, it isn't meant to be realistic", but see the ships they use and you'll understand me. One thing to add is also that Whedon doesn't rely on bringing back the same old from the past movie which if they had been in, it would have been crazily over sci-fi and the effects would have gone haywire with every scenes seeming unbelievable at best.
Overall though the film is a fine movie and of course as said, very good indeed. It's an improvement and on that, I can't see many claiming the first Avengers was the best, Age of Ultron thoroughly steps up in many different areas. It ranks highly on the roster of Marvel films and with Marvel throwing out movies left right and centre, you can't help feel will this be remembered, but the answer is probably yes. Yes the Avengers really are at the epicentre of the Marvel cinematic universe and with all these phases that Marvel/Disney put together, this movie shows that the next phases and the next movies in this series can be very much looked forward too.
