THE AVENGERS!

For those of you looking to comment for english honors, this is my post for tonight/ Tuesday May 22 .  I decided to do this one just for fun the other day, because I like critiquing movies :).  So, here it goes.

Sometime last week, I went to see a play with some friends, then headed over to Yogo Factory by the Cinnemark in Somerdale. After Yogo, I ran into some friends who invited me to see the late night Avengers with them. Of course, I said yes. I am usually on of the last of the human race to see movies like this so soon, and I am surprised I got to see this already.

 I ended up taking a young freshman friend, who I consider a baby brother, along with me to see the movie. After paying for his ticket, the brat told me I looked wierd.I should have smacked him in the face. Anyways, we didn't get home until around 2 am. I didn't go to bed until 4. So if you do not like long, action films- this is not for you.

Avengers was very entertaining, but I reccomend watching the individual superhero movies or reading the comics before seeing this. The team consists of Black Widow, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hawkeye, and the Hulk. Also starrring the aweful Loki. The only movies I had seen before hand were the Hulk, and Captain America. One of the lead roles was played by Scarlett Johansson, "that girl that doesn't do anyting but be sexy." Scarlett's role was Natasha Romanoff/ the Black Widow, from Iron Man. I have not seen Iron Man yet, but I feel as though her character was a little unessecary. Even so, the film was still good. Of the 2 individual movies I had seen before hand, my understanding of the film was almost 100%.

There were many many funny parts, I found myself giggling throughout the whole movie. The humor between the superheros and their differences, as well as the superheros and the human race, keeps this sort of lightheartedness that made me laugh alot. All the main characters had this witty, love hate sense of humor with each other. Just wait until you see the fight with Iron man, Thor, and Captain America! I will not give away the end though, it was a great. You have to go see it yourself! :) As  Marvel Comics fan, I enjoyed it.

Tips- If you want to save yourself some money, don't see it in 3D. The 3D was quite awesome of course, but not all the difference if you're a broke, future college student like me.

Next on my list: catch up on both Iron Mans, see Thor, and, when it arrives in Theatres- The Amazing Spider Man.  I always say, what's Spider Man without Toby and Kirsten, but the new Spider Man is just as hot, or even hotter. ;) He's my favorite, can you tell?

  1. Ang,
    I love how you wrote about "The Avengers", I absolutely loved this movie. Something about this post that really stuck out to me was the fact that you got so personal. It was nice to see the passion you have to write and the want to fill others in on your life in your writing. It made me laugh when you mentioned that you should have smacked that kid! I would also have to agree that I should have watched all the other separate films first. I could easily catch on to the ones I hadn’t seen, but of course it would have been more helpful if I would have seen them before seeing "The Avengers". Either way, this film was definitely worth seeing just like this blog was worth reading!

    1. thanks! haha that is a great review :D. I would love to work for them some day. I can understand the relations Anthony Lane is making to the corporate world, and how the little things make more of a statement than being a superhero. I really liked his description of Loki, who was probably my favorite character despite his evil ways. (<33333) I also liked his kudos to Robert Downey jr, because he really played the part well. Altogether, "the Wilbury's" (aka Avengers) were quite an entertaining group. :)
