In a single word?—> AMAZINGLYFANTABULOUSLYFREAKINGAWESOME!!! Come on…One word for a movie like “The Avengers” is not possible!
(Don’t worry… no spoilers… At least not many) The movie kinda starts where the movie ‘Thor” ended, with Loki trying to get his hands on “the Tesseract” which is said to be a source for unlimited power. Nick Fury senses the seriousness of the situation and starts uniting the ultimate forces of the Earth, involving you know who all. Their first aim is to get Hawkeye back, who comes under the control of Loki early in the movie and starts helping him to fulfill his mission. Later on Loki somehow manages to use the Tesseract to open a portal to another world, allowing him to establish his terror on the Earth with the help of an army of ‘Chitauri’ aka really ugly alien creatures which come through that portal.
The movie shows how the superheroes fight their way not only through the terror of Loki, but more importantly through their ego (which happens to be one of the really important turns in the movie) and combine to form one huge force which is later referred to as the “Code to Death”. Hulk is seen for the least portion in the movie as compared to the others, though his alter-ego Bruce Banner is seen throughout, and still whenever Hulk is shown, every time he manages to give unexpected twists to the scenes… and I mean every single time. Some of the best scenes in the movie are with Hulk in them. Referring to the heated conversation that takes place between Tony Stark and Loki in the movie, where Loki tries to intimidate Stark and asks him to back off by telling him that he has a huge army with him to takeover the Earth, to which Stark replies “So what…We have the Hulk!!!“ All the characters have their own important role to play in the movie, but still, Iron man somehow steals the show in the end.
Before the movie came out to the big screens, even though the trailers used to make me jump out of my chair every time I saw them, I always used to fear that the movie would get beaten up because of a weak story-line, but now that I have seen it, I can assure you that, despite of bringing together so many superheroes, the movie still manages to give a pretty decent storyline, with a proper mixture of action, drama and comedy. The action scenes in the movie are… aaa… how do I put it… AMAZINGLYFANTABULOUSLYFREAKINGAWESOME… I mean, I don’t know what word would be apt in this case.
So, with this I would like to end my review and rate it a must watch for everyone, i.e., even though you haven’t seen any of the superhero flicks related to the heroes that are in the movie, you still are going to have one hell of a time watching this one!
