I have seen this movie multiple times, and I still desire to see it several more times. "Why?" you ask? Because it is such a fantastic piece of art that it makes my brain hurt, truly it does. I tried to break the movie down in my mind to provide a more comprehensive review, but that is very difficult to do, not nearly as difficult as making the film I'm sure. Enough Babble, time to really talk about the film.
The Avengers, this movie really clicks into what it would be like to see the team up of a super powered human, a demi-god, a rich genuis, a couple of master assassins, and a large, green, radioactive accident. The binding force behind this team is the same as in every super hero film, a great evil is threatening the world and their loved ones, so they must rise against it. The fantastic thing is, these heroes don't bond together and become best friends immediately, in fact, they nearly hate each other at first. At least Iron Man and Captain America clash verbally several times. Also, Thor and Iron man wail on each other for a several minute long action sequence, it was very satisfying and I give the victory to Iron Man in all honesty (but that's just me).
I'll throw you a bone and list the heroes with their titles and the actor's names.
Iron Man- Robert Downey jr.
Captain America- Chris Evans
Thor: God of Thunder- Chris Hemsworth
The Hulk- Mark Ruffalo
Black Widow- Scarlett Johansson
Hawkeye- Jeremy Renner
Loki (the antagonist)- Tom Hiddleston
All these actors along with several impressive side characters and supporting actors creates a great chemistry and a suspenseful action film, worthy of several Academy awards in my humble opinion.
The director was practically born for this, no one could have done a better job, I applaud the person who brought up Joss Whedon's name as the man for the job, and he so was. The writing must be mentioned as well, along with Joss Whedon was the very competent Zak Penn (The Incredible Hulk, X3, and X-Men: The Last Stand).
To wrap all this up, I give the Avengers a solid 20 out of 10. You get what I mean.
All joking aside, yes, it's a 10/10. Please go see it, you will be amazed.
