One of my favorite movies of the year! And it has been a pretty great year for movies, so that's saying something. My inner fanboy screams cries of uninhibited happiness whenever I see Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, The Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye together on screen and this sequel, for the most part, did not disappoint. It offered yet another complex story line that gave all of the characters a lot of great action sequences and interesting story arcs, while also offering much welcome backstory (e.g. Hawkeye) as well as setting up what is to come in future Marvel movies. Ultron was also a very intriguing villain as he was not so much villainous as he was a misguided and narcissistic self-appointed vigilante. Overall, it was full of many laughs, memorable and re-watchable action scenes and is just plain awesome. What else is there to say- It's an Avengers movie. Watch it. It is my 2nd favorite movie from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (out of 12 films). Final Grade: A
