This is an ok film but no Batman Begins or Dark Knight.

Here are a list of the things I liked about it.

1. The Hulk

In this movie the fellow playing him (since that other fellow gave up) is better than the other two fellows that played him. He should get his own spinoff. Also the Hulk is both menacing and great

comic relief. He ended up probably being my favorite of the heroes even though I was expecting it to be Iron man

2. Jackson

I like this character, as usual it's basically Samuel L Jackson acting like a very cool African American person. When he was a Jedi he played an authority person. But in that movie he was

very boring. He is more like an autheory person from "Pulp Fiction". He is not boring like the starwars version of him but a bad ass person.

3. The Bad Guy

Even though the movie turns into Transformers 3 at the end with 45 minutes of mindless explosions. I like that the bad guy is talky talky. He barely gets into any fights and seems more like a James Bond villain than some ninja fighting alien. He does fight now and again and has super human powers. But for the most part he stands around talking crap at people and plotting.

4. It was stupid fun

The problem I have with the Dark Knight is while it's a very clever movie, it is boring and really, really up itself. This movie is more self aware that it has people who want to have fun.

Things I didn't like

1. Tony Stark

I like this character. But the movie has the same problem the Xmen movies have with Wolverine. It's WOLVERINE! and the Xmen. In this movie he gets far too much attention. The arrow fellow (can't remember) is kinda like a guy just moving around. He has no character development. Likewise the Hulk (the best character imo) is kinda just picked up, stands around and thats that. Overall, too much focus on Stark to the point that he saves the city, he destroys everyone and he is the last shot. I can understand why, he is now one of the most popular. Still, uneven.

2. The CGI

One of the things I like about batman begins is it's use of CGI. It's very sparse. Like when batman first meets the scarecrow, it's mild cgi of worms and crap on top of his mask. In this it basically turns into Tranformers 3 at the end. The first half is better than the second half.

3. Why was he attacking and who was the army?

??? Something about a cube of power or some crap. Or his staff that opens up a whole or something. I don't know. It explains poorly. Also green goblin guys and a gears of wars monster.

4. So Thor could come to earth?

In the Thor movie he is horny for Natalie Portman. He says "one day I will come back" (or something along those lines). Here, he just drops of a plane like a Taxi service. Then returns. other than a very mild reference, those whole plot line is moot. He uses some "black magic crap". Or something. Either way it just seemed like total lazyness the way he was just plopped into this movie.

5. Scarlett Johansson cant act and dresses like a hooker

I really dislike (this was a major problem with Tranformers) when movies designed with children in mind have woman dressed like pornstars. Through out this movie Scarlett Johansson wears some strange BDSM gear and most of the worlds makeup on her face. She doesn't look like she is wearing cloths to fight people but to titillate. Her powers (along with the arrow man) seem really inferior and crappy compared to the others. The movie tries to make them appear useful but aside from looking like a hooker, her inferior nature compared to Thor, Hulk and Iron Man was always at the back of my mind.

Overall what I got from this movie was a hankering for a new hulk movie, with the fellow from this movie in it and not the two other people. I enjoyed this but I don't think it has enough to it to rewatch over and over again like Batman Begins or the Dark Knight. These movies also have problems but substance isn't one of them. This is a good waste of time and very interesting seeing how they attempted to link all the movies up. Hopefully this will inspire warn bros to make live action Justice League.
