Although it has very little experience in film as a director, Joss Whedon knows very well how to work multiple players on the small screen.

Fortunately, the writer experienced proved to the challenge. Although it is somewhat aesthetically pasteurized (not differing from any other big-budget blockbuster of the last decade), The Avengers is perfect within their pretensions. It is, after all, a Marvel film - and as such, follows five decades (!) Tradition of the "House of Ideas." It is still, well, a modernized version of the first adventure of the Avengers, 1963: her, lone heroes come together - after a misunderstanding generated by the inevitable conflict of egos that came great beings - to face a common threat engendered by the handler , greedy and unscrupulous villain Loki.




In the plot, as shown in the post-credits scene of Thor, SHIELD began to experiment with the cosmic cube of Odin, which leads them to open a dimensional portal that allows the arrival of Loki (Tom Hiddleston) to Earth. Once here, Thor's brother steals the cube to make their own experiences, aiming to bring an alien army on the planet. Thus, the director Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) calls the inmate Bruce Banner / Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), billionaire Tony Stark / Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), the newly thawed Steve Rogers / Captain America (Chris Evans) and demi-god Thor (Chris Hemsworth) - who returned to Earth to settle accounts with his brother - for, along with the agent Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), forming a super team, the only one capable plans to stop Loki.
