Age of awesomeness!

Rating: 9/10 (1 May 2015)

Lives up to the excitement I pent up for it.
I got to give Joss Whedon cred as a filmmaker. Age of Ultron is a very different movie than the Avengers, and I was expecting the Avengers, which hit me with a curve ball and made the movie something that I had to seep in.
It helps that the movie began with a cool action sequence that introduces all the players (old and new).
James Spader as Ultron was perfect. Dark, Inhumane, and the best part was that he does not even realize it. It's was the type of performance that can put the comic book villain up there with movie villains like Darth Vader.
Hawkeye gets to shine a little more for those who are huge fans of the Avenger, and Sam Jackson looks like he got into shape to play Fury again, not bad!
And Lots more Avengers to choose from. Reminds me of X-Men 2, you would think too many heroes would clutter up the movie, but in the end it worked. (Or maybe as a comic book fan I got Goosebumps seining so many heroes on the same screen). Lots of cameos and trivial points for geeks as well.
I also loved how worldwide the movie is. I've seen New York being destroyed so many times on the Big screen it becomes unreal, so it was fun watching other cities from around the world get destroyed. Keeps it down to Earth. Some of the best fight scenes are front in center in more realistic places which heightens the excitement.
I have to say, I liked the original better than the sequel (also like Captain America: the Winter Solder better). In this sequel, we got to know the Avengers a lot better with a lot of emotional talk, which made the movie iffy for me, but like I said the movie has to seep in on you. It did have the advantage of being the more heroic movie with the Avengers sometimes feeling like fire fighters while saving the world, at the same time being darker with a lot of geeky scenes about the definition of a hero.
New Avengers, Darker Villain, and more scenes with the team fighting together as one. Definitely worth the IMAX dollars
