  1. Movie Review: Marvel's The Avengers

    When <strong>Stan Lee</strong> and <strong>Jack Kirby</strong> first created the super team they called &ldquo;<strong>The Avengers</strong>&rdquo;, I doubt that they could scarcely imagine the popularity it would enjoy today. Way back in 1964 when the title first debuted, Lee and Kirby were trying out a new formula when it came to superhero team-up books: create a book where the heroes didn&rsquo;t always get along. Up until that point, namely in the more perfect universes of <strong>DC Comics'</strong> <strong>Superman</strong> and<strong> Batman</strong>, the caped crime fighters generally co-existed with very little drama. The<strong> Marvel Universe</strong> would differ, with the heroes having more three-dimensional personalities and the conflicts that they bring. That was the drama that readers of books like <strong>The Avengers</strong>, <strong>Fantastic Four</strong> or<strong> X-Men</strong> came to expect, a veritable soap opera with muscles and skin-tight spandex. It works rather well in comic books since the dialogue is at times heavy-handed and the costumes a bit bright, but not always in real life.

    What do you get when you take the director (Joss Whedon) best known for <em>Buffy the</em> <em>Vampire Slayer</em> &ndash; and you give him $220 million to make a movie? Oh, and he&rsquo;s seen <em>Transformers</em>, because there&rsquo;s a lot of stuff that looks like it was taken straight out of that.

  5. Film review: 'The Avengers' fun movie but won't save the world

    Superhero fans have been waiting for &quot;The Avengers" since "Iron Man" in 2008. Since then, all the films featuring Avengers have included hints and references to the characters' upcoming collaboration. Some say what we've gotten is four years of commercials. I say it's been four years of building anticipation. The problem is that the film now has to deliver on four years' worth of hype. It's an OK blockbuster, but the bar is set so high that it can't help but be disappointing.
