This constant-action movie is fun, but fairly shallow.
Over the summer, I heard friends rave about the latest Marvels superhero movie The Avengers, and I was pretty excited about it. Getting a sitter is nearly impossible (unless you have $10 an hour to pay—not that I begrudge sitters of this money, but we just don’t have it; that’s the price of a movie anyway!) so my husband and I usually have movie date nights via rental—and lately, via FREE library rentals, and this is one example!
We curled up with our snacks and settled in to watch the film last night, and it was a good movie. It had wonderful effects, and though rumpled Mark Ruffalo will never be My Hulk, the rest of the team was pretty good—especially the Black Widow, whom I believe deserves her own movie. That woman’s scenes were the best in the movie, hands-down.
