Madness of Loki!!!













 This was a fantastic movie that stayed true to the comic books! This action packed, oddly comedic superhero-jammed film managed to show the characters off in a manner that that stayed to true to their original media. Iron Man was funny with his wit, Cap was seen as a serious leader, The Black widow was a manipulative spy, Hawkeye was a precise fighter, Thor was a crucial player among the team, and the Hulk battled his rage. For those who do not know Nick Furry, he was also portrayed well, he is a very secretive man and always has an ulterior (and quite larger) motive for his actions. Loki always seems to comes to cause trouble although he does not fully understand his actions. He has always been one to cause 'mischief' and havoc among many races. He's also been one to dabble in powers that are dark and that he does not fully know how to use in order to gain power. In the comics, the Avengers also did have a difficult time assembling and getting along. I was more than pleased to see how the film was executed.

 Although it is the classic action packed superhero movie we know, it is far different from anything that anyone has seen because this is the first film where big-named superheroes are all in one movie. Sure, movies have had multiple heroes in one film, but not one that has been in development like this for years. The Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor have all had at least one film released. This created a 'hype' about the movie to those who haven't read the comics. They know and love these characters. Seeing these movies also makes them feel like they are "in-the-know" because they've been hinting at this film in each of the separate films.

 I was also pleased to see the development of the characters executed so well. We could see the Bruce struggle with the Hulk and see the humor of the Hulk. We could see Natalia struggle with her past. Captain had his spotlight from awakening to a new world. Iron Man showed his personality very strongly as well. Thor showed off Asgardian strength to the whole world and hinted at his love for Jane.

Hulk SMASH Status!!! : That means this movie was amazing and to go see it immediately. It is an  odd mixture of humor, battles, and awesomeness that cannot be beat. Go see it, more than once even!! Saying it was Amazing was an understatement. It is one of my favorite movies! (Hulk Smash is quite humorous in the movie. If you go see it, you'll know what I mean!) P.S there are two cut scenes after the credits! So stay to watch them both!
