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.

National Newspaper Publishers Association

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...

Keith & the Movies

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.

While it's worse than it's predecessor in almost every way, Avengers: Age Of Ultron is still a really fun movie. The action is entertaining and there are tons of crowd pleasing moments. It just can't reach it's potential due to a messy story.

Ultron is a compelling villain and many members of the cast are given new insights to their character that we hadn’t seen before. The visuals are stunning and the sound design continues to improve.

A solid entry in the franchise, perhaps eclipsed somewhat by it's successors.

The second Avengers movie is undoubtedly the weakest of the four that have released thus far, but it still remains to be quite entertaining. With one of my favorite villains and motives in the form of Ultron, and a roster of heroes that were built to work together in a beautiful symphony, I have a soft spot for this movie. However, though I love it, there are some glaring issues with this film that cannot be possibly ignored, and it showed that they were pulling too many threads and jumping the shark in many different cases. But it still remains just as enjoyable, all the same, and the entirety of the future of the Avengers hangs off of the events of this movie, especially the legacy of the great Tony Stark.

While not as amazing as the first, it still has the characters you like to follow and some jokes to laugh at
