Here, Iron Man gets some good lines but Thor and Cap'n America are just very dull characters. Black Widow is never developed, neither is Hawk.

I'm not expecting High Cinema, but I think it should be fun.Kassulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24761391.post-25179469989550333642012-04-28T09:59:42.069+10:002012-04-28T09:59:42.069+10:00Fair enough - and I hope it was clear that I enjoy...Fair enough - and I hope it was clear that I enjoyed it, too. But a lot of my enjoyment came from the movies's take on the main characters (which I thought was great in all cases). The story - not so much, in the sense that, as I said, I never felt the good guys were in serious danger.Russell Blackfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12431324430596809958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24761391.post-91338142783820623332012-04-28T00:38:19.523+10:002012-04-28T00:38:19.523+10:00I saw it tonight as well :)
