What I Think

• Pro's

- Meta horror movie that's self aware of itself. A very smart horror movie.
- Homage to other horror movies and their conventions, along with critiquing other horror movies.
- Very cool twist within a twist. Much farther than what's shown in the trailer.
- Answers why we watch horror movies. (hint - Has to do with human history)
- Cliched with a purpose.

• Con's

- We have to face the fact that it's still cliched at times.

The Avengers

- IMDB - 8.8/10

- Rotten Tomatoes - 93%

What I Think

• Pro's

- Improvement from Thor, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk, and Iron Man 2
- Equally shared screen time for each character. Not so emphasized on one individual.
- Great moments when they argue among each other, making them human and flawed.
- Very funny and very witty
- Great Post-credit scene

• Con's

- Bland fight scene at the end. At times, it felt like Transformers.
- Bad guys aren't so much of a threat, and not much information about them.
- Very long exposition
