interesting pics. Taken at a fight scene taking place in Italy. They include some shots of Joss Whedon directing, while Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), and new characters brother-sister Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) are seen for the first time.

Scarlet Witch has very strong abilities that include: hexes to light flammable objects, contain or remove air from a particular volume, deflect objects, stop the momentum of projectiles, open doors, explode objects, create force fields and deflect magical attacks, etc.

Quicksilver can move at speeds up to Mach 10. So fast he can create cyclone strength wind, run up walls, and across water.

Highly disappointed in how underwhelming Avengers: Age of Ultron was. There was a lot to like, but it fell well short of the greatness it could have (should have) been. Felt like a visual spectacle using the same recycled formula with relentless action sequences without any real build up or suspense. Also thought Ultron was nowhere near as menacing as the trailers indicated. Marvel continues to entertain with the best of en, but they lack a truly great villain in any of their films.

7.5/10 possibly a 8/10 gotta see it again to make that assessment


Personally I liked it, but it just felt like wow we waited 3 years for this?

Dare I say that Captain America: The Winter Soldier was better than Age of Ultron? Guardians of the Galaxy in my opinion was also better.

well Mr Movie man, six second reviews, ex mr moviephone said he was given the option of seeing it in 2D or 3D and he chose 2D because the theater had the big goggles for 3D. He said something with the film almost needed 3D for the certain scenes with Ultron. almost like it was shot with too much 3D in mind.

I guess I should start out by saying I'm not a fan of comic-book movies and avoid watching them whenever possible.

On a regular movie scale I gave it a 4 out 10. On a comic-book/action movie scale I gave it a 6.5. Like OP said, Ultron never struck me as a real threat after his initial introduction. May be I'm just not a fan of Whedon because the dialogue left a lot to be desired, way too many on-liners. The only thing I really liked about the movie was Jeremy Renner's character, who I didn't particular care for in the first movie.

It was Transformers-esque in my opinion.

I thought it was better than Guardians of the Galaxy but not as good as captain 2 or Avengers 1.

It was basically a transformers movie with better actors, a better script and better fight scenes. I do think marvel jumped the shark a bit with how many characters they have just hanging around.

Saw it last night.. It was OK, definitely the 2nd worst movie of the group though(avengers, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America), with only Iron Man 3 worse.- I don't consider the 2 Hulk movies part of this avengers project...

My biggest question is if the X-men movies are in the same Marvel universe as these... Reason I ask because they really fucked up the quicksilver story... Thought it was weird that in X-Men days of future one of the most fun new characters was quicksilver, and then they DID THAT to him in this movie...

Another thing, I think they messed up on a good opportunity to bring in Black Panther... Would have been nice to have another black superhero... and they had an easy opportunity here with going to his homeland and taking vibranium...

Magneto is the twins father

Plus, the Twins were a perfect Bridge to X-Men if they wanted to create MORE stories...

They'll just pump Quicksilver up with some Kree blood. He'll be back faster than you can say, "Coulson".

Loved it. The humor was even better than the first Avengers. Ultron was good, not great. Better than the Chitari but not as good as Loki.

As far as negatives, it felt rushed some. Ultron's creation, the twins switching sides, accepting Vision. I can look passed those things though because the film is over 2 hours already.

Also, I know that it is setting up more for future films (Black Panther ) so I don't need every opportunity spoon fed to me when I know they're getting there.

Very disappointed
Also
Hawkeye is a shit character and they even admitted to it poking jokes at him during the movie. The whole back story with his family was stupid and unnecessary.

I think it was a different Quick Silver in the movies but it maybe part of the X-men universe if they cross.
