Did I miss something???

Rating: Null/10 (29 August 2014)

All the great reviews of this film, "the best", 4 stars, Robert Downey Jr. proclaims this as the best Marvel movie of all time. I went to this movie knowing from the previews that it was a spoof, yet as the film began it starts with a painfully realistic downer moment. From that point on it seemed that the movie didn't know what direction it wanted to go. The performances were all disjointed and the writing was some of the worst ever, yes, it's a super hero fantasy but even a little logic goes a long way. I seriously wanted to walk out after half an hour. Horrible directing and for all the fuss made about Chris Pratt, he failed to make an impact. The movie came down to too many special effects, green screen and of course, wise cracks and dialog that seemed way out of place, on top of that, the most overrated villain since Loki from "Thor". I will never watch this film again. Been there done that, nothing new for the genre in spite of all the accolades from critics. I must have missed something.
