Just watched the movie, and it was awesome. Every character feels like they had their moments and is a great mix of action and comedy. Every member of the Avengers feels awesome with Captain America, Thor, Black Widow, Iron Man, Hawkeye, and of course the Hulk, who just seems to work when put with the other super heroes. Actually it almost felt too busy with how much there was that I think I might watch it again.

Was also very surprised by how much personality Ultron had, he was actually a cool villain.

I saw it on Friday and was very impressed. I hadn't held out much hope, mainly because the first Avengers movie had disappointed me quite a bit, but I really enjoyed AoU.

I loved that they took time to develop and flesh out the characters -- the witty banter was almost a bit much at times (EVERYONE is a snarkmonster), but I liked the mix of fast and slow scenes, the way they incorporated so many things from previous movies and comic 'verses, and the way the story was told overall.

My sister and I have told our mother that we will take her to see Avengers: Age Of Ultron at the neighborhood movie theater on 5/10, which is also Mother's Day.

I thought it was pretty good with the action and characters. However it lacked a lot of the magic of the first movie. The action was pretty fast paced (not that there's anything wrong with that) but sometimes I couldn't tell where everyone was at times and the cameras were pretty shaky at times. Also it felt just a little bit rushed at times like they wanted to get this story out of the way so that they could get to the next movie. Hopefully it's worth it. Also the villain's plan was a little confusing at times. I think he wants to destroy the world to reshape it or he hates humanity I dunno. Despite that it's still a worthy addition to the MCU and I would add it to the Blu Ray collection. Not my Favourite but still an enjoyable movie and despite what I said it's still better than some movies from the MCU even some that I actually like.

I'm very excited to see Avenger's: Age of Ultron. I'm a huge Avenger's fan. I'm going to see it on May 2. I even bought all of the Avenger bears at Build-a-Bear. lol.

I just saw it yesterday with my wife, and it was even better than the original. James Spader as the voice of Ultron was both funny and sinister, while I think the Vision has since become my favorite Avenger!

I can't wait to see this one. It sounds like a great action film!

I thought it was good, but a bit too busy (too many characters) and a bit too much like the first movie.

That's a problem with "super-team" movies. By design, there are a lot of characters that need to be serviced, and of course, there has to be a huge battle, so they all have something to do. Unfortunately, after you've seen it once or twice (we saw one in the first movie, and THREE in this movie), those big battles just become so much sound and fury...

:?

On a positive note, I thought Vision was pretty cool.

On a less positive note, I worry about Captain America: Civil War because I think it will have all the things I didn't like in this movie--too many characters, and too much 'splosions.

Saw this with my dad and brothers on Saturday, and had a pretty good time. I'm easily fascinated by AI characters, so that probably swung my opinion heavily towards the positive. Says I lot when I empathize the most with the villain, eh?
