Not bad, but not great. Underwhelming.

Rating: 6/10 (30 April 2015)

Thus is the issue with these kinds of movies. How do you top the last one? This movie seemed like a giant "meh" for me. The pacing was strange, the plot was strange, the humour was strange.. A lot of strange. There were many moments that lost me as a viewer, I found myself daydreaming. Not all cons, however. This movie isn't all that bad, really. Its a good entertaining flick that the family will love, with amazing visuals, amazing action sequences and still a decent plot. I just found it to be grossly underwhelming. Not one of Marvel's best, and comparable to Iron Man 2 & 3. It will destroy box office records at first, but I think we will see it quickly trail off. But you know, maybe I'm being too cynical. If you would have told me even 10 years ago we'd have a complete Marvel cinematic universe, including an Avengers 2 by 2015, I would have laughed in your face. So enjoy it while it lasts, regardless.
