Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Perfect cast and a good story
Excellent but underrated film
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
If you can overlook the fact that every Avenger that had a kid has died or that Thor's daughter talks like him even though she wouldn't have had any way of knowing how he talked, this movie isn't bad. It was better than I was expecting considering it's about children.
An alternate future had the Avengers settling down & starting families, and then getting killed by Ultron, all except Tony Stark/Iron Man, who goes on to be the protector/guardian/foster parent of the kids, Thor, who takes over as King of Asgard, though why Thor would let his daughter get raised by someone else, even a long time friend/ally like Iron Man, isn't really clear (as if Superman being a slacker deadbeat dad in "Superman Returns" wasn't bad enough). The Hulk/Bruce Banner also survives into this future. Years later, the tween versions of the Avenger offspring: James Rogers (son of Captain America & Black Widow), Torunn (daughter of Thor & Sif), Henry Pym Jr. (son of Giant Man & Wasp), Azari (son of Black Panther & Storm) and Francis Barton (son of Hawkeye/Clint Barton, who actually did not grow up with the other kids), are forced to fight Ultron & save humanity from him, even if it means recruiting the Hulk to get the job done.The recent market of direct to DVD animated superhero features has been pretty hit & miss so far, both for Marvel & DC. "Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow" is doomed to be remembered as one of the misses, largely because the kids themselves just aren't compelling enough to capture the imagination of the audience the way their parents did, with the possible exceptions of Azari and Torunn. Most of the films best moments don't even come from the young heroes, but from the old guard, specifically Iron Man/Tony Stark, who was forced to give up his playboy ways for surrogate parenthood.Overall, stick with Ultimate Avengers 1 (the less said about Ultimate Avengers 2, the better).
To be honest, this film was plain horrible. Well, maybe some younger kids could watch this, but no one over the age of ten could watch this film without the urge to scoop their eyes out.The storyline isn't THAT bad, but it is rather cliché, and too predictable.BUT, you can't help but HATE Torrun (sp?) and Pym... they're just so annoying. there are constant objections from them trying too hard to teach children about some random qualities which are just lame. About every five minutes, you hear "no we can't!! we have to go back!!! we have to help him!! come on we have to fight them!!" In essence, save yourself from watchign this film... I watched it out of pure boredom.. i would much rather have sat in silenced for one and a half hours than watch this again :]
The Next Avengers is not based on an existing comic. It does however feature characters from the Marvel Universe. Basicaly you can view this cartoon as one of many alternate stories in the Marvel Universe only with one difference. And that is the fact that this cartoon is meant for a younger audience than usual. We get introduced to the children of some of the Avengers. While I have no real objections to this premise I do wonder why these children almost have the same power as their parents. Surely these kids would have some extra or different powers since some of them are products of two parents who both had super abilities. I understand that this is done for recognition and to simplify matters. But it would have been nice to see some new abilities. OK,done with the nitpicking. The story itself is not that impressive. The characters however are fun and there is just enough action to keep you entertained. There are some surprises featured in this cartoon considering you haven't had a good look at the cover of the DVD. Let's just say that a certain character we all love finally gets more screen time then he did in Ultimate Avengers 1 and 2. Overall this is a nice cartoon that plays around with the Marvel mythology.
