This is the worst film in the official Marvel Cinematic Universe!

Rating: 2/10 (1 April 2019)

After seeing the first "Avengers" movie in 2012, I was wondering how they were going to top it with the sequel. Then in 2013, the first teaser trailer came out for "Avengers: Age of Ultron". I thought, "okay, 'Age of Ultron' is kind of a weak and stupid title, but I won't let it ruin the movie. Who is Ultron?" I said to myself. I then looked up the character, and I was blown away. Ultron has several cool powers and abilities, and he is indestructible. "Wow!" I thought: "how will the Avengers stop him?!" Then, I watched the teaser, and the first two official trailers. They were laid out just as I thought, with an ominous tone, and a dramatic soundtrack. The first few trailers were great, it got me excited and hyped to the max for this film. Then came the final trailer, and at that point I slowly began to realize what we were in store for. The music wasn't very dramatic, and it just felt more like a day time television commercial. I thought: "okay, this trailer is different. Where is the dramatic and ominous tone?" But, I didn't care, I was still going to see this movie regardless. Boy did I make a mistake! This "movie" is stuffed past the brim with one-liners, comedic moments, it hardly followed the original comic book stories, and at no point did I feel any tension whatsoever. I've seen many disappointing films, and this "movie" certainly belongs in my "Top 10 Most Disappointing Movies" list. I knew before I first saw the film that they changed the original story. In this "movie", Hank Pym doesn't create Ultron, Stark does instead. That does not follow the original story. Now of course, some movies can get away with altering the story, but that does not work in this "movie". However, Tony Stark does create Vision, that is comic book accurate. That's the only thing they got right in this "movie". But as far as Ultron goes, I could not believe how they portrayed Ultron in this "film". Ultron is a wuss in this "movie", he is practically the polar opposite of his real comic book self. He's supposed to be a cold, calculating, mindless robot. So, why does he have facial features? That moving mouth especially perplexes me, it makes him look more like an alien in a suit of armor. WHY DOES HIS MOUTH MOVE?! Sorry for repeating that question, it's just so retarded. His real character in the comics just has a red light on his face that glows when he speaks. That would've been so much better, because we, as an audience would not be able to tell what he's feeling. In that case, you wouldn't know when he was about to strike! That would have actually brought forth some level of tension for the "film". Another thing, when Ultron says: "I can't physically throw up in my mouth." (HE MUST BE THINKING ABOUT THE MOVIE ITSELF). That "joke" would've actually made sense if he had the glowing red light when he talks instead of that retarded moving mouth. The light would have further clarified that he does not have a mouth, and therefore he cannot throw up. That would have made the joke work, and it would have been funny! Although to be honest, just thinking about this "movie" makes me want to throw up. Also, Ultron has next to none of his actual comic book powers, and I was looking forward to see how those awesome powers would be utilized in this "movie". But no, we just get a watered down tin foil looking "thing". Granted, James Spader is a good choice for the voice of Ultron. What a wasted opportunity! Another thing, the plethora of one-liners in this "film" are abysmal, there are so many that it almost doesn't feel real. You know, you'd think after "Batman & Robin" (1997) contaminated the Earth with its existence, film studio producers and writers would have learned their lesson! Now, the first "Avengers" movie had one-liners too, but there were not nearly as many. It had the right balance between action, comedy, and drama. Unlike the sequel, the one-liners in the first Avengers film are actually funny, but in "Age of Ultron" they're not! Also, the acting is all over the place in this "movie", some good, some okay, and some bad. The soundtrack is generic, nothing special or original at all. The sets and locations are boring. Sadly, the only good thing in this "movie" are the special effects, and that's not saying much. Special effects are usually a given in movies since the mid 19th century. I think that the biggest reason this is my least favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe film is because the movie had so much hype and build-up for over a year, and then it amounted to nothing. Out of all 20 plus movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this one, by far, emotes the most anger out of me. I give it 1 out of 5 stars, which of course equates to 2 out of 10 stars on the IMDB scale. On a final note, in the "movie" I wanted to hear one of the main characters say: "Avengers, assemble!" Sure it's corny, I know. But, I think it should be warranted in one of these movies. Captain America almost says at the end, but then the end credits cut him off. I was furious! Also, for a title called "Age" of Ultron, we didn't even find out how old Ultron was. Yes, that's a joke, I thought that I'd end my scathing review of this "film" on a positive, humorous note. The "age" of events in this movie take place in just a few days. Whereas an "age" can range from a year or longer, so the title doesn't make any sense! Nothing in this "movie" makes sense. Stay away from this "movie", watch the first "Avengers", or "Avengers: Infinity War" instead!
