I was being coy just to get cheap attention. It worked!
I liked it a lot--I'd give it a B+. I loved the guy who played Falcon--he is very likeable. I also thought his flight scenes were very exciting and scary. The wings were super cool.
I am on the fence about the guy who plays Captain America. I think the character needs to be a bit older and more commanding.
I loved the fight between Black Widow and the Winter Soldier. She was fast and brutal. In fact all the fight scenes with all the characters were great and exciting. Now if we could just get Scarlett Johansen to act her way out of a paper bag, we'd really be in business!! The poor thing is a big zero in the personality department (I have a feeling I'm going to feel like Frankenstein soon being chased by angry villagers for saying that).
The CGI was spectacular! Breath-taking, really.
Yeah it was very good. Next up will be Guardians of the Galaxy, which I still haven't seen. My review will be as bold and incisive as this one.

Funny, I thought she gave the best performance out of everyone in the first Avengers movie. I didn't think much was asked of her in Winter Soldier but had no problem with her.
I really enjoyed Guardians (and hadn't really expected to). Very light, very entertaining. It's really just a very enjoyable science fantasy flick and its status as a Marvel property is irrelevant IMHO.

I'm definitely going to see GOTG, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Hi folks! So much I want to comment on. I'll get that in another post. I just wanted to say hello for now. It's good to see this board alive again. Hawkeye's line to Wanda was, possibly, the best part of the movie.

Hawkeye's line to Wanda was, possibly, the best part of the movie. Mornin' Pym-! . . . and it was a movie with many best parts, too! HBSon & his girlfriend & I are going to see it again this evening (w/ me very much counting on a better viewing experience!), which is why I myself have been holding off on commentary a bit. Well. . . and being still mindful of spoilers in the interim, eh? HB

The poor thing is a big zero in the personality department (I have a feeling I'm going to feel like Frankenstein soon being chased by angry villagers for saying that). Well, I can see your points about Cap, but I think Evans does a good job portraying the sense of honor, of duty, of doing the right thing, that Cap signifies. I guess it's all about what traits of the character they most want to portray. If he had a more commanding presence, then perhaps the tension between him and Tony wouldn't be as significant or motivational as it is right now, I think they've struck a fine balance between the two characters' outlook and personalities. As for Johanssen, I've enjoyed her performances so far, they've been subtle and she's more than carried her weight against the testosterone boys. In this film, they could've easily forced in some romantic/flirtatious aspect to her relationship with Steve, but I'm glad they didn't. Her platonic, respectful working partnership with Steve is one of the strengths of the film and it carries over quite well into Avengers 2.

Good morning Marvel Boy! Doing well. Looking forward to the summer and all of it's movies. How are you? Doing fine, good sir, doing fine. I took my son to see the film yesterday, he liked it though his first question afterwards was, "Who is the Vision?" Being my second viewing of the film, I took the opportunity to try and spot any smaller comic nods that I may missed before. I won't spoil where in the film these occur, but did anyone else catch the name drops of Roy Thomas and Jocasta? That was a nice touch on Whedon's part.

Watched this movie a few more times since my initial viewing. I've certainly found more to enjoy about it since then so I don't dislike it quite as much as I did. It's still deeply flawed and reeks of corporate product demands overwhelming whatever good intentions the film makers actually had.
Whilst James Spader did a good job as ever, on reflection I think that a steely, more robotic, insanely logical, Ultron would've been more effective.

Avengers Age of Ultron is a great movie to watch. The characters in the movie are very bold and famous and they really have done a wonderful job in making this movie a hit. Check out some of their cool Movie Jackets on Sky-Seller here: goo.gl/aJ36rj
