The Avengers: Age of Ultron Review

I am a huge Avengers fan and it was with great excitement and expectations that I went to watch The Avengers: Age of Ultron. And.... they didn't disappoint as usual. With a pow-wow mix of comedy, action, a little bit of romance thrown in and also a great deal of emotion clinchers, this movie was just AMAZING!

The movie plot revolves around how Tony Stark, with the help of Bruce Banner uses  Loki's scepter to kick start his peacekeeping initiative to protect the world and maintain "Peace in our times"- Ultron. Things take a turn towards the dark when Ultron emerges as a super villain bent on destroying the world. The Avengers assemble to take down Ultron. But backed by his superior artificial intelligence and access to systems worldwide, Ultron seems invincible. But Ultron wants one more thing to make him complete - a proper invincible body akin to a living being. Once he has that no one can stop him.

Avengers get more amazing characters to help them in the face of this huge threat to mankind. And they are all Kickass! (atleast one of them was "Kickass" **wink wink**)

**** ALERT!! : SPOLERS AHEAD****

Best Scenes:

The Enhanced twins Pietro and Wanda Maximoff attacks the Avengers in a South African shipyard - 

While running at super speed Pietro sees Thor's hammer flying past and he's like "hey that looks cool" and grabs it. He's no match for the power as he is taken several miles away with the Hammer. Epic moment. 

Wanda brainwashes Bruce who becomes Hulk and runs amok in the nearby town. Iron man uses his "veronica" Armour to subdue him. Superb action sequence of Hulk vs. Iron Man showdown.

Scene where all of the Avengers try to lift Thor's Hammer. No one could and Thor is smiling smugly. Then Captain America tries and the Hammer moves a little. Thor's face - hilarious. 

Fast forward a little and we are introduced to The Vision (I absolutely LOVE him!!). We are all hanging on to our seats , trying to determine whether he is good or bad. End of his speech he turns around to Thor and the others saying "There's no time, lets go", and hands Thor his..... HAMMER!!! As easy as that he wields Thor's Hammer! That was one HUUUGE moment. The Avengers' faces! Hilarious! The audience - stunned silent and then we were all like "Ohhhh shit. Ohhh wow" Lol.

There are so many more such amazing moments in The Avengers: Age of Ultron. You simply have to see it for yourselves. I think I'm going to watch this one again and again. :D

Captain America 2 : The Winter Soldier - A Review

Hey guys! Its movie review time! lol . So last weekend I watched Captain America 2 : TWS , I had been eagerly waiting for the next movie in the lot aaaand here's what I think about it (this is more like a feedback than a review ) :

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is the sequel to Captain America: The First Avenger and following on from The Avengers. It is the ninth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film finds Captain America and Black Widow going up against the assassin codename The Winter Soldier.

Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Scarlett Johansson, Cobie Smulders, Hayley Atwell, Toby Jones, Dominic Cooper and Samuel L. Jackson return as Steve Rogers, James Barnes, Natasha Romanoff, Maria Hill, Peggy Carter, Arnim Zola, Howard Stark and Nick Fury.

The film is directed by the Russo Brothers.

Ok, so first off : Chris Evans is as usual the super handsome hunk with looks that'd make you go weak in the knees and maybe even swoon . Him and that Captain America outfit - mamma mia! eye candy! **drool** :D When I initially saw him in movies like Fantastic Four, The Nanny Diaries etc, I thought that he was like any other blond haired stereotypical jock with a fake, too-perfect smile , but aged maturity lends him an aura of the kind of heroes that you imagine belong to romance fiction and/or superheroes - self assured, dignified and definitely hot , without overdoing it.

Secondly - Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow. Her sultry femme fatale appearance was marred to a great extend due to the ramrod straight hairstyle she had taken up for this movie. Her features seemed too broad and hard and there wasn't any sultry siren effect at all. Especially in the close-ups, the sleek hair broadens her already broad face and her distinctive nose gains more prominence . I loved her previous avatars and believe the waves do more justice to her beauty.

All that apart, I would rate the movie 9/10 for the adrenaline-pumped action and mind-blowing stunts, the humor was a bit minimal compared to the other Avengers franchise movies and I would rate it a 5.5/10 . The storyline was good, though predictable. So all in all, the best part of the movie was the action. It is definitely  worth the watch!
