A star-studded cast assemble to create the greatest superhero movie of all time...

Rating: 10/10 (6 May 2012)

Superman: The Movie, The Dark Knight and The Avengers. Yes "The Avengers" does indeed stand tall amongst the greatest superhero movies of all time.
A stellar cast assemble to create a marvel of a film, pun definitely intended. The special effects are top notch and never look out of place like superhero movies of the past. However it is truly the story that is most appreciated since it is the final act of an intricate tightly woven plot that has been building through the current generation of Marvel films (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor and Captain America: The First Avenger) and ends with the best superhero finale ever conceived for the big screen. Yes its that good. The only factor that could have been reduced was the amount of humour and sarcasm following certain kick-ass scenes which could have benefited with a touch of cool. In retrospect the humour mostly gets it right and compliments the "comic book" feel of the movie, which is what we have all desperately wanted for so long: A comic book movie that truly sets your mind free like the comic books and cartoons we all read and watched growing up thinking anything was possible.
I applaud you Marvel as "The Avengers" now stands as one of the greatest, if not the greatest superhero movie of all time.
