"Earth's Mightiest Heroes" type thing

Rating: 9/10 (28 July 2017)

It has all come to this. Can a movie starring several grandiose superheroes be good, not only to comic book fans but to the entire world? And they got one of the greatest filmmakers for nerds ever: Joss Whedon. It is very clear in this movie that it is Whedonesque, especially in it's dialogue and jokes.
It all comes down to how the team gets together, and the chemistry among the team is immaculate. Everybody on the team work well together no matter what pairing it is: Hulk and Iron Man, Black Widow and Cap, Thor and Hulk, Cap and Iron Man. Notice that one name is missing here and that is Hawkeye. He was basically a zombie follower of Loki for half the film. Hawkeye in the final act is better but even Jeremy Renner knew that he wanted a better storyline. Still though, the entire team of Avengers had incredible chemistry.
The villain, Loki, was a great choice for the Avengers to take on. He is a formidable villain, as a trickster god with an alien army. Sure, aliens were a bunch of alien clones but they did prove to be a good matchup against the Avengers.
Let's talk about the final battle. It takes place in New York, which is great because that is one of the benefits Marvel has over DC, they take place it cities that we actually live in. Sure, it is fictional but they still went by several places that people have actually been to. It was amazing to see the team fight, either in tandem or by themselves, for 20ish action packed minutes.
That doesn't mean I don't have complaints about the film. As I mentioned before, it bothered me how Hawkeye was used, although he did get a chance in the end to make his mark. Cap's costume looked for like a onesie and not something you would expect a war hero and super soldier to wear. The army might have been CGI at the end so it was just mindless action and one-liners, but when it is done this well, you can't really complain.
This is a pioneering and spectacular film in it's right. It took something that nobody thought could work, a blockbuster film starring at least 4 larger than life characters that have only had their own movie and made a great movie.
+ Cast chemistry + Whedon writing and directing + Loki + Third Act Battle - Really small things (use of Hawkeye for some of the movie, Cap's suit, CGI army)
Final Score: 9.5/10
