Genres incorporate action, adventure, comedy (which Marvel has adopted as their signature), family, with hints of drama and romance. Whedon has appropriated other stories such as Frankenstein and The Bible in the storyline while conveying underlying themes of the dangers of technology and a recurring theme throughout marvel films of compromising morals in battle.
However, the chemistry of Renner's character acting as a mentor to Olsen's character is fantastic to watch and brilliantly executed.
None of the performances will be Oscar-winning, but they rarely are in superhero films. That's a pretty impressive line-up in any movie. Jackson (as Veteran Nick Fury), and newcomers Paul Bettany (Vision), Elizabeth Olson and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (twins Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver). But in terms of Marvel movies the more the merrier! Included in the cast is Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Samuel L. This film has a LOT of characters, which is both awesome and maybe a little crowded at times. There are references to past AND future films, but if you ignore them and concentrate on the storyline, this should be a great film for any age. But what if you haven't seen any previous Marvel films and you're looking for a one-off good time at the cinema? Yes. This is a good move by Whedon as it demonstrates that blockbuster and superhero films can have deeper meaning while also exploring Marvel's ever-expanding superhero arsenal. This is present with glimpses at the private life and origins of lesser known superheroes such as Hawkeye and Black Widow who haven't yet gained the opportunity at a solo film, while exploring the mental conflict and processes of the other Avengers. Director Joss Whedon however stated that his aim for the film wasn't to try to trump the original, but go deeper into the complexity of the characters and the storyline. So, naturally, Age of Ultron was expected to be just as good.
The expectations? The original movie entitled The Avengers broke box office records due to its originality, anticipation and marketing. In both the expectations and the results.
