Avengers IMAX 3D - "Action packed super hero movie with all the characters putting in stellar performaces mixed in with brilliant special effects and 3D sequences. Definately worth a watch in IMAX"
It's been a long time since I posted a movie review. I have seen quite a few movies since then but none of them have been momorable enough to review. So after a gap of 5 months, reviews are back due to popular demand (you know who you are!!!).
I had been waiting to watch this movie for a long time, but I was not expecting too much from the movie, because I thought that a movie with so many big names and big superhero characters in their own right may not be able to co-exist in one movie. It was a really plesant surprise that all the characters bounced each others characters off the others and made the entire movie look really coheisve and cool. In the lead up to the movie the standalone movies introducing each of the characters had a combination of hits and misses. The Iron Man franchise has been strong, Captain America was good & Thor was dissapointing. The Hulk has had 2 incarnations in the last decade with Edward Norton's incarnation being far and away the better one. But this movie introduced a new actor for the Hullk in Mark Ruffalo, who played an incarnation quite similar to the one Edward Norton had played in The Incredible Hulk (2008) and brought Bruce Banner and Hulk much closer to each other.
The movie picks up right where the Captain America & Thor movies left off, with S.H.E.I.L.D trying to analyze and build power source and weapons from the Tesseract, the blue cube that Hydra used in the Captain America movie to build all those weapons. Loki arrives and steals the Tesseract as it can be used to create wormholes to other dimensions and Chintauri promise him the Earth in exchange for it. After this most of the movie is basically self explanatory, Nick Fury brings these characters together to save the world from this threat.
The movie combines very witty dialogue with brilliant action sequences keeping you hooked throughout. The last 30 minutes of the movie has a lot of 3D scenes which makes the experience even more interesting. If you have not yet seen the movie, go watch it. What are you waiting for?
The bottom line, this movie is a 4 on 5 for any superhero movie fan.
