There is a lot to enjoy about The Avengers, the film has action, humor and a large entertaining cast of actors actually bringing some conviction to their silly roles as super heroes.
However, this is still a movte based on a comic book.
This film is ridiculously overlong coming in at almost 2 and 1/2 hours. In the good old days of poorly animated Saturday morning cartoons, this would have been 2 half hour segments of a cartoon series (including commercials) that could tell the story a lot more efficiently and quickly.
Still there is some skill and talent involved in making this kind of crap entertaining. There are plenty of other super hero movies that aren't even remotely entertaining in spite of being loaded up with action, computer effects and everything else.
143 minutes.
