The Avengers Reviews

Very terrible.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Sep 6, 2018

The movie lets [Fiennes and Thurman] down with a patchwork climax that feels rushed and perfunctory.

| Jul 8, 2014

The new Avengers is dismal in dispiriting, dreary ways, and Ralph Fiennes, playing Macnee's part, is a particular disaster.

| Jul 8, 2014

Some bad movies are bold outrages; many others become hits. This one hasn't the juice to be either.

| Jul 8, 2014

This Avengers film is so horrendously, painfully and thoroughly awful, it gives other cinematic clunkers like Ishtar and Howard the Duck a good name.

| Jul 8, 2014

Neither elegant nor macho nor elegant-and-macho, Fiennes is terribly cast; Thurman at least provides the equivalent of a dressmaker's dummy on which to hang neo-mod fashions.

| Jul 8, 2014

This big-screen version of the classic '60s 온라인카지노추천 spy show The Avengers can be added to the ignominious heap of updates, remakes, and adaptations that really didn't need to be made.

| Jul 8, 2014

As the eccentric master villain who controls the weather, even Sean Connery is flat-out terrible, acting high on the hog.

| Jul 8, 2014

Somebody call Austin Powers, quick!

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 8, 2014

To answer the question at hand, yes, The Avengers is pretty bad. Not slip-a-disk-running-from-the-theater kind of bad, but a shift-in-your-seat, "oh-for-goodness'-sake-get-on-with-it!" kind of bad.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 8, 2014

Fiennes and Thurman look fine in the familiar outfits, but aren't very good at banter, adventure or romance.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 8, 2014

This movie -- gaudy, grandiloquent and often staggeringly silly -- is one more example of how bloated and top-heavy many "event" action movies have become.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 8, 2014

The Avengers is, without a doubt, the worst movie of the summer.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 8, 2014

A few things you might consider doing instead of seeing The Avengers: Walking the dog. Turning the compost. Re-grouting the bathtub. Starting your 1999 taxes. Buying a dog. Starting a compost heap.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 8, 2014

What's missing is chemistry: the right blend of seriousness and whimsy, and charmingly compelling interplay between leads Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman, who turn in lackluster perfs.

Full Review | Jan 30, 2009

It seemed like a good idea, but the more you think about it, the clearer it becomes that The Avengers should never have been turned into a movie.

Full Review | Mar 31, 2008

The trouble is, the film's decadence isn't a put-on, it is, simply, depressingly, degeneratively, decadent.

| Jun 24, 2006

This film's viewers must be avenged

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000

The Avengers is out of place in our current cinema of excess; even Mrs. Peel's laudably skintight catsuit is played far too seriously.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 1, 2000

It's a completely botched effort -- botched in its direction, its writing and editing.
