Ultimate Avengers II (2006 Video)
7/10
Worse than the first one but still good

Warning: Spoilers
I REALLY liked the first Ultimate Avengers movie. It had a superb animation style, it showed a team-up between some of my favorite Marvel Comics (who if you ask me is a little better than DC comics) characters (Thor was under-appreciated) and it had an interesting story (although it was a bit similar to the way the JL members met).

After seeing that movie Ultimate Avengers 2 was the movie I mostly anticipated. I knew that it was going to introduce the Black Panther and that the Shatauri (sorry if I misspelled it) would return. Having seen the Fantastic Four series I knew that Rakanda had lots of vibranium and so I anticipated a bit of the plot.

Anyway, after I saw the second movie, DC comics became my favorite comic book publisher. Why, well, in one word, because the movie disappointed me.

Don't READ AHEAD IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE.

The movie was too short, I don't like how they put emphasis on Captain America - Blakc Widow or Wasp-Giant Man relationship (I don't want a soap opera), the Hulk and Thor were SOOO under-used and, by far the worst aspect of the movie, the death of Giant Man made me throw the movie out the window after I had seen it. I don;t like it when heroes die, because I don't watch super hero movies so that evil may triumph over a good, IN ANY WAY. If Giant man does not come back somehow in Ultimate Avengers 3, a big boo for Marvel.

Don;t get me wrong, the movie is not bad, but it focuses more on issues from real life like love, courage, etc. than on making a cool and developed plot. Anyway, hopefully the sequel will make it better.

If you are a Marvel fan or if you liked the first movie, watch it. Otherwise, no way Jose.
