Review of The Avengers (1998) by Omotestgump — 02 Apr 2023

At first I thought it might not be bad. But when the special effects and less-than-thrilling action began to appear and the immaturity of the script became apparent, I realized that my first thought was a mistake.

Personally, I expected a gentlemanly and intelligent story from this film. Partly because it is based on a British work, but also because I was fed up with American films that were all showy special effects and not very interesting stories. However, I have never seen the original of this movie, but perhaps it was not as American as this movie. I thought it was an intelligent and great movie, but it was all special effects and action. As the movie progressed, the value of the movie gradually diminished.

Another reason is that there was nothing intriguing about the story. None. Nothing. The foreshadowing that was scattered in the beginning of the film was collected without any interest. No matter how much action was developed, it just ended with "huh". It was half-hearted, boring, and not as enjoyable as I would have liked.
