Critic Review - New Yorker

If you are a Marvel fan, then The Avengers will feel like Christmas. Thanks to the merry doings of the director, Joss Whedon, all your favorite characters are here, as shiny and as tempting as presents under the tree.

I don't think that this exert is very good. He said 'If you are not a Marvel fan, on the other hand, then watching â??The Avengersâ?? will feel like being mugged by a gang of rowdy sociopaths with high muscle tone.'

I don't think that he actually likes it

Well... it's sort of a positive review with a wink. I mean, he can't shower it with straight up praise because "it's the Avengers" and he is writing for the New Yorker, so he's got to hedge his bets according to his audience. But I still found his review to be amusing.

He merely had some bad experiences in high school, and is still trying to work past them.

This action packed movie is a five star rating! With the actors fully going into their roles as heroes and villian, the magic they display on the big screen is magnificent. If your fan of the Marvel movies you will love this next installment, and if this is your first Marvel movie then you picked a great one to watch. All the action and explosion is packed together for the viewers to enjoy.
