The Avengers, 2012 - ★★★★


This second viewing was still a huge amount of fun although perhaps not as great as the first time. I noticed a lot more this time to explain why it works so well. For starters there's all the great dialogue and humour which is far more entertaining than the action sequences. Most action films just end up with a messy and confusing finale and with several heroes this had it's work cut out. It works where so many fail because each sequence is the set up for the next so it all flows together in quite a wonderfully structured way.
