Avengers: Age of Ultron. This movie is essentially all action. The movie immediately starts out with the Avengers attacking a Hydra outpost. After the Hydra attack, there is some brief calm as Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) experiment with Loki's scepter. The experiment goes wrong, resulting in a robot named Ultron who is out to destroy humanity. One might think that a movie with barely any character development other than between Bruce Banner and Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) would be over-kill, but it actually works. The one thing I will admit I could have done without were the hallucinations incited by Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen). Maybe two at most of those hallucinations, but having so many just seemed like it was at attempt to lengthen the movie.
Best character addition: Scarlet Witch was fun to watch -- yes, she was causing the overload on hallucinations, but Elizabeth Olsen is just too fun to watch.
How do I rank this movie in terms of the Marvel movies I've seen? Probably in the middle. Not as good as Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Better than Thor.
