SUPERHEROES: The Avengers


The movie that takes 'superhero epic' to the next level.



What’s it about?

‘The Avengers’ is a tale that epitomizes modern heroism through the impressive teaming up of several childhood superhero favourites, with an impressive cast and production to match. A war between the gods Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Thor (Chris Hemsworth) threatens to destroy the world as we know it and the avengers are called together to protect the helpless inhabitants of earth. The Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), led by Captain America (Chris Evans) together with Thor are pulled together by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) to form a formidable team in the face of Loki and his godly power.


What I thought:

I thoroughly enjoyed ‘The Avengers’. It really grabbed my attention with impressive action scenes and entertaining storyline. Robert Downey Jr. provides his usual arrogant wit playing Tony Stark, which makes for enjoyable viewing. The characters compliment each other well and the well-constructed action scenes meant I was engrossed in the action. It lives up to it’s promise of being an epic as it clearly draws on the fact that it is fulfilling many a child’s dream in combining such popular characters together in one adventure.


Conclusion:

It’s a great film that offers plenty of entertainment. It is a must for any superhero fan as it satisfies in terms of action, comedic value and story.


Grade:

90 (HD)
