As entertaining as Dark Knight, but in a much lighter way

If the Dark Knight (the highest achievement in "comic book movies" to date) is a 9 out of 10, then Avengers is an 8 out of 10. While Avengers lacks Nolan's brooding artistry, it makes up for it with snappy dialogue, crisp action and several genuine laugh-out-loud moments.
As soon as the credits rolled on Avengers, I wanted to see it again. I highly recommend seeing it as soon as you can; it's fun, witty and thoroughly engrossing!
Pros great story, great actors, smart
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Exceeds the hype!

I was concerned that this film wouldn't live up to the hype... and I found no reason to worry once I left the theater.
Nolan is an incredibly skilled director, perfectly balancing the talents of Bale, Ledger, Oldman, Freeman, Caine, and Eckhart with a masterful hand.
Iron Man was fun and perfectly met its goal, but Dark Knight was brooding, thought-provoking and downright chilling at times.
The script was innovative, the action wasn't over-the-top and the visual effects were perfect.
This is the best movie I've seen in the past few years, and given the thousands of movies I've watched, that's saying a lot.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
