Movie #1024 "Avengers: Age of Ultron" is not my type of film (action film with super heroes I know nothing about), but it did have several positives to lure me into seeing it, one big one being the director Whedon. Another is the actors (esp. Downey, Jr, Johansson, and Ruffalo), and finally the first Avengers movie was pretty good. I can say there was a lot MORE of MORE here, but it was not as good as the first one, esp. in the storyline. I can sum up in three words all I need to put in this critique: too. much. fighting. That's pretty much it in a nutshell for me. I have been on a rampage for a while now on wanting to see more movies that solve the world problems through brains instead of brawn. The first Avengers film gave me the impression that they were really trying to figure out how to defeat the bad guys, and they seemed to have a plan. This one, Ruffalo and Downey Jr seem to work on a plan for about 10 seconds, but I don't remember it ever being told to any of the "heroes" nor to us, the audience. In fact, the black widow is out of the picture for several minutes and misses any discussion on it, and yet just joins in and fights willy nilly, which is what most of the film is ---- fighting willy nilly. If you want to just see one fight after another, with some funny humorous jabs here and there, see this. Otherwise, take a good long walk in the sunshine for two hours and 20 minutes.
