The Avengers
#5
It was an absurd romp with great effects and some funny lines, but superhero films just aren't working for me anymore. Sure, it's hard being a superhero, no one understands the responsibility and being 'different' ...wah, wah, wah. You're a goddamn superhero. Man up! Maybe if I had sat though all of the previous films (I only saw IM1&2) I would have been more into it. I'll side with ED's "Fuck Yeah - America" comment. I liked Downey's lines. I still want to punch Gwyneth in the face. Samuel doesn't work as Fury for me (Sgt Fury was the only comic that I actually read extensively as a kid - the old war stuff, which was like comparing the original G.I.Joe toys to those of today, I suppose). It was all about Scarlett for me, as she has no real superpowers but is the most kick-ass hero of the bunch. The rest are all pansies in tights and armor. If Black Widow was in a swordfight, that would have been great.

All that being said, it was great mindless entertainment for a while. I wasn't bored.
