Excellent Way to Finish The Series

Rating: 4/10 (21 May 2012)

Well if there were any short-comings offered by this movie, the superb cast and their excellent performances hid them. Additionally, I am certain there were massive egos to contend with, but the director (Joss Whedon) did a superb job keeping that aspect in tow. I can't say this movie was well worth the astronomical cost per person, nor the wasted time watching TV commercials – but it had more value-for-the-buck than some of the other tripe I sat through in the past.The storyline was fast paced; the CGIs did not outperform the actors/actresses, and the pontifications were eclipsed by things blowing up and all those awful bad guys getting their butts kicked. I gladly spent the big bucks to see it in the theater and will purchase a DVD copy (that way I can watch it a few more times without breaking the bank). This was an excellent swan-song for, 'The Avengers'. On that notewould I suggest a sequel? No way! Why spoil a good thing? Let these stars/characters exit on a positive note, as American - wait not just American - BUT World heroes, instead of a bunch of drum-banging narcissists, supporting some whimsical divisive Hollyweird agenda, that only they can afford to care about. Sorry – that is such a sour note to end with. Good job or Bravo-Zulu one and all.
