Critics Consensus

Exuberant and eye-popping, Avengers: Age of Ultron serves as an overstuffed but mostly satisfying sequel, reuniting its predecessor's unwieldy cast with a few new additions and a worthy foe.

There is little in this film that is new, but that doesn't matter. The characters are still entertaining, the action scenes thrilling and near orgasmic, and the human relationships touching.

Several thrilling action sequences, a great many good jokes, and an unshakable sense that everybody is just going through the paces.

Joss Whedon set a higher bar with the first "Avengers" (2012) and tried, in many ways, to top it here. He got close...

I ate up the funny banter between each unique superhero personality. I loved the large-scaled action which seemed ripped straight from the pages of a comic book. I was interested in the future movie tablesetting.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Raising the stakes and swinging for the fences like a good film sequel should, Joss Whedon pays off the Phase 2 initiative with both a new level of groundbreaking effort and a continued dedication to the master blueprint of a grander big picture.

If there's anything really wrong with Age of Ultron, it's the degree to which it leaves you yearning for more.

The film delivers exciting action sequences, including the Hulk vs. Iron Man fight (Hulkbuster Some jokes didnt land well, making Ultron seem less meaningfull. Overall, its a solid Marvel movie but often considered weaker than the first Avengers film and Infinity War. If you enjoy superhero action and character moments, youll probably like it, but its not the best in the series.

Frank the Pug .

I can have just as much fun with this as the first movie, but the story doesn’t come together as well. The action is all great, every cast member is doing a fantastic job (James Spader’s performance is controversial, but I like this take on Ultron), and the movie is really funny too. But the script and pacing are both off, with some really weird Joss Whedon-isms that are just groan-inducing (the romantic subplot between Natasha and Bruce was really strange and unnecessary), and of course the infamous, mercifully short “Thor in a cave” exposition scene. But it’s still very watchable, and I had a good time.
