Film class: A
Genre: Superhero Action Thriller
Stinger: Yes (2 scenes, mid after-credits and post credits)
This movie was actually way better than all the other Avengers movies, 2 teams of superheroes fighting with each other, it couldn't be cooler. Captain America's team fight as vigilantes, while Iron Man's team fight for law and order. The line between what is right or wrong is greyed and yeah, there's the usual Stan Lee cameo, delivered pretty comically.
State-of-the-art CG and fight scenes, and nope, you haven't seen the best scenes in the trailers yet. There's more to come. The ending fight scene, more like a duel, falls short of expectations, while the clash between the two teams was the highlight. Despite the diversity of characters, we get to feel for each and everyone of them.
Black panther was the black horse for this one, I found myself rooting for him most of the time, and his costume was slick-ishly cool. Spider-Man was the comic relief, though played by an unknown actor, he stays true to his cheeky character. He sure makes a worthy ally, as well as a well-liked superhero.
None of the superheroes were dislikable, which makes this movie rather... Conflicting. Perhaps they portrayed Iron Man a little too extreme, but you can't blame the man for choosing the side he was on.
Though there were kick-ass action, some suspense and a parade of superheroes to root for, there was something lacking... A fearsome villain. But was an overall fun superheroes eye-candy movie, one of the best so far.
