Amazing end product of mediocre films

Rating: 8/10 (25 August 2012)

I never thought going into the cinema that the previous Marvel films would amount to so much. They are nothing in comparison to this masterpiece. The films leading up to this being Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk and the Iron Man films. These films range from average to decent, decent being Iron Man 1 which is the best out of the prequels.
This film works in so many ways! It's hard to know where to begin with the review. The acting is good, the story line isn't complex but not too simple either. Each character is given a good amount of screen time and no character is left under-powered or look insignificant. The effects are very good maybe some of the best ever so far in film making. Josh Whedon has done himself proud! I loved Firefly and now I love this!
Overall a very very VERY good film. It is incomparable to The Dark Knight or the other Batman films as it is a completely different type of film. I do love those films as well. It just.. works.
