Storyline: The story revolves on the coming of Loki to Earth jeopardizing S.H.I.E.L.D. (a secret international peace keeping agency). Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) leads this special team which contains a variation of Marvel Super Heroes: Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow.

+ Great Special Effects + Good Story + All Super Heroes combined

- It may be a long ride (over 2 hours) for some of us.

As a moderate fan of Marvel’s Super Heroes I really enjoyed this particular movie. Over the last few years I was unsatisfied with movies like Thor and Captain America. They showed a lack of foundation and to combine all Super Heroes into one movie was a genius move to avoid this problem. The Avengers do provide small background information for their characters, but it is obvious that they didn’t want to spent a lot of time on it. Only the ‘Black Widow’ and ‘Jekyll and Hide’ get a thorough profile scheme. To really understand Loki and Thor I do recommend watching ‘Thor’ first. For me, this wasn’t a problem at all as I knew the characters from their individual movies.
The story itself is both original as well-written. Loki, the bad guy, is planning to take over the world by unleashing an army on earth. It us up to S.H.I.E.L.D. to prevent this from happening and Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) leads this special task force. The Avengers excel at special effects and let’s be honest, we always love to see Super Heroes in intense action. The Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) is my personal favourite as this character show a lot of humor and sarcasm.The acting is good, the story is good, the cinematics are awesome and the action is immense :-).
If you are looking for a 2 hours of entertainment, this is the movie to watch!
