So, there we are on the 2nd day of showing and on the 2nd row.
I love the movie! It was fun and a true joy ride! I am not a comic book fan and all I did was watched the first few movies (except the Hulk ones).
I am a fan of ensembles, cameos and all-star cast. So, this was really great for me!
Let me just break it down for you:
IRON MAN - I'm pretty sure that no one will disagree with me that Robert Downey, Jr. fits this role to a T. I love his lines and how he says it - quick, funny and a lot of sense! In a normal world, he would probably one of the persons you'll hate for his ego. But in this movie, he is such a character. I'm not a big fan of Gwyneth Paltrow, but I have to give it to her for staying in the franchise and being part of all of these as Pepper Potts.
CAPTAIN AMERICA - He is a heartthrob! When I first found out that he was going to be Captain America, I was not totally sold out since he is already Johnny Storm / Human Torch in the Fantastic Four. Different characters! Anyway, I enjoyed Captain America. And I love his role, being the old one, in the Avengers!
THE HULK - I'm not a fan of the two previous Hulk movies. I haven't really watched those two. When I heard that Mark Ruffalo was going to play the Hulk, a number of people weren't really sold out. I can't really blame them since there were already two previous actors who played that part and Mark Ruffalo who? For many, he may not be familiar. But I adored him in Just Like Heaven and 13 Going on 30. And I continue to adore him the Avengers. I love his scenes!
THOR - I watched the Thor movie and it was okay, not really amazing. I just don't have the same emotions as some who go ga-ga over him. But you got to love the accent .. hehe. And Chris Hemsworth really has similarities with Brad Pitt. But I am not a fan of Brad Pitt.
HAWKEYE - Another character that I only knew because of this movie. I liked Jeremy Renner in Mission Impossible 4 : Ghost Protocol and I am so looking forward to his Bourne movie. And in the Avengers movie, he never runs out of arrows .. amazing! He must be an heir of Legolas!
BLACK WIDOW - I'm not a big fan of Scarlett Johansson, although I don't hate her. I like her role in the film, being the only girl in the Avengers. And she sure has the skills!
NICK FURY - Samuel L. Jackson fits the role. Enough said!
AGENT COULSON - Aside from Nick Fury, this was one of the ever present character. And I just love it that despite of being in a top secret agency, he is a fan of Captain America!
AGENT MARIA HILL - Robin, Robin, Robin! It was only while watching the movie when I learned that Robin is part of this cool flick. Robin as in Robin from How I Met My Mother! I try to catch some episodes every now and then. It is just so fun to see her in a different light. She's different but still the same Robin (the voice!)!
I can't wait for the Avengers 2!
