Not great but still good!

Rating: 7/10 (27 April 2015)

Can't say its better than The Avengers (2012) but it's still a good entertaining film. What The Avengers (2012) lacked is ridiculously compensated in Age of Ultron, unfortunately at the expense of what made the first one a better and more complete film. Some might feel that the second act in The Avengers was a bit slow but in my opinion, it is moments like these that made the third act all the more fulfilling. Age of Ultron lacked that bit in my opinion. It was all one flashy action set piece after another with very little built up or back story. Without a slower second act to built up some tension and drama, the whole movie does feel a bit flat in the end.
Having said that, the movie does feel like there was originally a bit more to it than what was released. You can't help but feel that chunks of the movie were taken out to reduce the run time. That feeling when you see a scene transitioning into another and go, "Wait hang on, did they just skipped a page?!"
To sum it up, it feels like a Transformers movie that was done right. A insane amount of non-stop action with tons of funny one- liners thrown in the mix with very little build up.
