Exclusive from the THOR Blu-Ray "Road to The Avengers" that is supposed to be released on September 13, 2011 in the U.S has found itself on line. Courtesy of @antovolk the movie was released early in a few countries that we now have it here. Watch until you can or until they take it down!
You will be very unlikely to run into anybody this weekend(or the next couple of weeks for that matter)who didn't like "The Avengers",the superhero movie to end all superhero movies.I would be slow to call it a masterpiece,but it's so likable and action-packed that in my opinion,it comes damn close.Director Joss Whedon lets you know that he was the right one to bring this $220 million superhero powerhouse to the big screen,and his cast dosen't dissapoint either.From my standpoint,Robert Downey,Jr.,Chris Evans,and Mark Ruffalo give the best performances in the film(Downey espicially,since his last outing as Iron Man was so downright full of himself to the point of nauseam).He takes a step back and down from his pedestal to be a team player.Evans as Captain America(who is my all-time #1 superhero)brings us a Steve Rogers who is still out of his own place and time,but always ready to jump into action when the situation and movie calls for it.Ruffalo downplays the scientist with an angry green-man complex role so much that he seems to not be trying all that hard to bring it across(not that he needs to,of course).Chris Hemsworth was actually better in this film as the god of thunder Thor,than he was in his own film last year.Renner,Johanssen,Jackson,Gregg,and last but not least Hiddleston as the uber-baddie god of mischief Loki are all excellent in their own scenes (with or without the avengers).
