Avengers: Age of Ultron 2015


Warning: Possible Spoilers

This movie was well made. I don't think any other Avengers movie will top this one. Especially with Iron Man, the Hulk, and Hawkeye leaving and Captain America and Black Widow forming a new team. And Quicksilver dies even before becoming an official member of the team.

I also like the parts where they explore Black Widow's past and give us a glimpse of Hawkeye's family. These two finally are given importance despite being ordinary humans.

The only thing that gave me an issue was the need for manually triggering the floating island's "release switch" by attacking it with a gazillion Ultron droids. Terrorists detonate stuff remotely with a cellphone. Hasn't Ultron heard of wireless technology? Sure, they needed a scene showing the Avengers battling against all odds. But so far, this was the weakest point of the movie for me.

Kudos to James Spader. His voice was immediately recognizable because of his work on the Blacklist. Had some trouble recognizing Vision from Wimbledon.

To me, the reasons for Hulk and Iron Man leaving the team weren't really clear. Well, I guess Hulk doesn't want to hurt Black Widow that's why he chose to leave, while Tony Stark is just tired. Are the actors too expensive to come back for the next Avengers installment. What happens to the team when it loses its brain power? (I guess Vision will be the new geek of the team)

Hulk buster was a treat. And Thanos appears as a bonus in the credits paving the way for the next Avengers installment.
