Excellent film

Rating: 8/10 (17 April 2013)

THE AVENGERS ASSEMBLE
I had seen this film when it came out in the cinema and I was blown away. I thought it was awesome.
I watched it for a second time yesterday and felt the same way it is such a great film and well put together.
I had seen all of the original films about the characters and I had mixed reviews about them.
Captain America = I didn't like it.
Thor = I thought it was good.
Iron Man = I loved it.
Iron Man 2 = I liked it, just not as much as the first one.
The Incredible Hulk = I liked it.
But put them together and you have an amazing film.
The story was good, the action was great, the characters were great and the actors were great.
Everyone did a good job but for me the main character and star was Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man.
A lot of people thought the Hulk was the best character, and he was great but there is just something about Iron Man that I think is special.
Besides, I like RDJ I think he is a great actor.
I was a little bit confused as to why someone different played Bruce Banner/Hulk I was expecting Edward Norton to reprise his role from The Incredible Hulk.
I still don't know why he didn't do it.
Robert Downey Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson & Jeremy Renner all make a great team.
Since this film was released, news has broken that there will be a lot of sequels on the way. Thor 2, Captain America 2 and Iron Man 3 to name a few.
Then in 2015 there will be The Avengers 2.
There are some great comedy moments in this movie too. Hulk is the main character that made me laugh. He just doesn't care about anyone and his actions make good comedy at times.
The success of this film really has boosted the comic to film transition. Man of Steel comes out this year and there are a lot more Marvel & DC comics coming to the big screen.
I am a super-hero fan, (in the movies I never read the comics) so for me this is only good news. I just hope they don't ruin any of the classic characters.
I will give this film 8 out of 10.
It is better than all of the individual movies and I can't wait for the sequel in 2015.
