Very Exciting and Fun

Rating: 9/10 (17 May 2015)

I was worried when I heard some critics were giving Age of Ultron worse reviews than the first movie, but I didn't really research what this meant exactly: whether it meant Age of Ultron would be terrible or just not as good. I try to avoid reviews so I can make my own opinion about the movie, and I have to say I really loved this movie. There are many great aspects to this film, including how it lived up to the fun of the first movie while establishing a darker tone at points (I love dark stories).
Age of Ultron doesn't mess around, and we are immediately immersed in an action scene at the opening to the film. And immediately we get a joke: the first line uttered is "s***!" by Tony Stark, to which Rodgers yells "language," and this becomes a moment the film keeps coming back to. I am not going to give anything away for these parts, but the parts I enjoyed the most involved Thor's hammer; so funny. Robert Downey Jr is at the heart of the fun in this movie, being the smart-ass that is my favorite character of the bunch, but he is also one of the most tested characters in this movie which I love.
Tony attempts to put a shield around the world, as he states, by creating Ultron, a digital consciousness that can connect to just about anywhere in the world, allowing it to control a countless number of androids. This is a result of his seeing a vision, due to Scarlet Witch's magic, of the Avengers defeated, making Tony fear what lies beyond the planet after their fight with Loki. The creation of Ultron makes the some of the other Avengers fearful when Tony wants to upload another digital consciousness into a body Ultron was going to upload himself into. The scene that results from this reignites the film after a slow second act in my opinion.
Not wanting to reveal anymore about the excitement of this film, this is where I leave you. I highly recommend this film; if you like action films or specifically superhero films you will not be disappointed with this one.
