This movie represents the worst of modern blockbuster filmmaking. I almost nodded off a couple times, despite the mind-numbing, pointless and relentless animated violence and way-too-loud theater.

I almost walked out a couple times as well, but I made it and endured to the end. Why do I bother giving this crap a try?

Character development: F
Story: F
Script: F

Did any of you actually give 2 craps about any of the characters?

If you don't like big action movies, don't see them and don't complain about them.

As to your claim that this was the "worst" of modern blockbuster movies, you must have not seen very many. I can make a long list of blockbuster movies with worse action, characters and character development than this movie. The Avengers already had solo movies out with the backstories of most of these characters so it wasn't going to repeat that angle. As to "character development" it was more about how these characters were going to be able to function as a group with the problems of themselves, each other, the government and the machinations of Loki. Additionally, this movie had much sharper dialog and funny moments than you usually see in these "blockbusters."

  I enjoyed the Spiderman movies and the first Ironman movie. I'd give the first Ironman 4 stars, but didn't think much of the second Ironman.
  
  The liberal use of CGI is very tedious.
