Insanely Entertaining

Rating: 9/10 (6 November 2019)

Every person has a popular movie or franchise from their teen years that they cherish with all their heart. Depending on your age and preferences, yours may vary. For some, it may be Star Wars. Other will claim it's Back to the Future, or the Batman movies. Some might even say Indiana Jones.
For me, it's gotta be the Avengers.
What Joss Whedon pulled off with this movie is nothing short of extraordinary. He takes all of these larger-than-life characters, each with their own backstory, and makes them share the screen in a cohesive manner. The Avengers is funny, epic and, most importantly, revolutionary. It doesn't quite get five stars, because I believe Marvel has proven that they can do even better since, but this movie is still an absolute blast every time I watch it (and boy do I watch it way too often...).
