Movie Review - The Avengers (2012)
So how does one cause a threat to a demigod, a supersoldier, a man in an indestructible metal suit and a hulking inexperienced juggernaut? Well, you actually cannot. But with a surplus of loud explosions, large battles, and limitless CG effects you can feign the right quantity of journey to appease fans of such monumental clashes between good and evil. The Avengers keeps the concepts easy enough, but piles on thus much mayhem it can become wearisome to those not previously invested in its subjects and willing to readily believe in the delirious events transpiring on screen. If you're not cheering when our gang of superheroes takes down a giant mechanical house worm, you almost certainly knew a while ago this movie wasn't for you.
As Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and therefore the agents of the secret military agency S.H.I.E.L.D. try to harness the facility of the extraterrestrial energy supply referred to as the Tesseract, the villainous exiled demigod Loki (Tom Hiddleston) returns to Earth to steal it. Along with the cube, Loki brainwashes and kidnaps assassin Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) and scientist Erik Selvig (Stellan Skarsgard) to help in his devious plot to overcome all of humanity. To combat this new threat, Fury reinstitutes his scrapped "Avengers" initiative and sets regarding gathering together the globe's greatest heroes - Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson).
The posing, evil grimacing to denote villainy, and arsenal of one-liners are at an all-time high in the Avengers, that works to assemble a cluster of superheroes that constantly compete for screen time, one-upmanship, and therefore the last laugh. The humor is truly overdone, poking fun in any respect of the characters and things to the point that audiences will most likely question that absurdities they must be taking seriously. And that is detrimental in a film overflowing with fantastical silliness, each visually and from dialogue. It's unhealthy enough that despite gods and alien worlds, the extraordinarily advanced technology is still unbelievable - and that jargon like gamma signature, thermonuclear, quantum, fusion, and cognitive recalibration sound so ludicrously forced for the sake of convincing viewers that the Avengers' instruments are beyond general comprehension.
Although it's not quite a sequel, it still solely feels acceptable to live it up to films like Transformers 3, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Iron Man a pair of, Superman Returns and therefore the like. It isn't as mind-numbingly nonsensical as some of the aforementioned titles, but it does not look or feel original, and the abundance of special effects and overwhelming destruction produce nonstop spectacle while not substance. Never once is there any real peril; this is often made upsettingly apparent with the inclusion of non-superheroes Black Widow and Hawkeye, who are simply too drastically inferior to travel up against international catastrophes initiated by intergalactic alien wargods. With a complete lack of definition for the numerous powers exhibited by the antagonists and protagonists alike, their large demolition of Manhattan and battling each other for the title of "toughest superhero" means that very very little. They would possibly yet all be invincible. No villain is formidable enough and no force threatening enough for these cartoonish CG-inundated extravagances to be sympathetic.
