Critique: First, I must say that I’m not your typical Marvel Comics fan. Actually I don’t consider myself a comics fan at all, but thanks to movie-loving husband-to-be-in-the-future (....LOL) I have seen all the Marvel Comic movies, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk and Thor.  So when the preview for The Avengers came, it was a given that we would be seeing it.  I was not disappointed at all.  Even if you have not seen the other movies, they do a good job giving background on all the characters.  The one downfall in my opinion is how long it takes to get the to the action! LOL. The action was great. My favorite characters were Iron Man and the Hulk. They provided the comic relief in the movie and both actors did a wonderful job staying true to their original character.  Of course this my opinion. I definitely would recommend this movie, especially for you Marvel Comic fans out there!

Rating:  I give this movie 4 W.O.W’s
