The Avengers
May 8, 2012
Any movie that ends after the credits with anexhausted Avenger team stuffing their faces withshawarmas, no dialogue, no recognition of eachother or the camera and you just have to lovethese characters saving our universe by workingtogether as a team .
One Word Movie Review: Hulkadorable
There are so many good things
happening in The Avengers that one
should resist taking it apart to analyze
why it works so well. So I will
concentrate on the team itself and the
interplay of characters that slowly
build into a classic battle royale with
our world at stake. This all-superstar
feature has been building for years,
with the Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America and Thor
movies all building towards this union of powerful
costumes to defend us in our time of greatest need.
It works because there isn’t one dominating hero, but acareful balance of stealth and strength, arrogance and
genius, courage and sacrifice and ultimately, planning
over reacting. Writer/director Joss Whedon delivers the
whole package here, using his natural ease with women
warriors to bring out the best of the Black Widow

character as well as the manipulations of Nick Fury and
controlling the wisecracks of Tony Stark.
The result is a tight story; moments for each hero to shine
bright and display vulnerability underneath the super powers that make even a demi-god seem human.
The evil Loki never seems to rise to a supreme level of
threatening menace that the story requires, but this is a
minor fault. This is a movie where Whedon delivers on
the promise hinted at in the previous movies.
The Story
Not much really, except we meet each hero in their own
intro scene (Black Widow has the best intro, tied to an
interrogation chair) and they fight each other over petty
misunderstandings. Then the evil Loki threatens the
world, we capture him and pay the price, things get
desperate and then, as a portal to another universe full of monstrous aliens opens above Manhattan, we watch our
heroes smash their way to temporary victory.
Will they be needed again? By Thanos, yes! Wait for the
end scenes in the credits for a hint of Avengers 2 and then
the inspired end scene of hungry heroes exhausted and
drained. The best.
The Genre
The “sci-fi fantasy super hero comic book action
adventure comedy romance” genre is super hot these days.
My audience was a mix of dates, teens, families and

my theater even applauded at the end!
