Joss Whedon sets up the future of the Avengers for the Russo Brothers, but this is no longer exciting. It's exhausting.
Justin Gerber
A $250 million pile of poo.
Jim Schembri
Ultron maintains Marvel's record for solid, entertaining blockbusters but falls down a bit in the "making sense" department.
Rebecca Pahle
Film Journal International
Its problems may not have been so evident if it wasn't trying so hard to surpass the far better movies that preceded it.
Edward Douglas

A lot of movie, where not a lot is special.
Matt Pais
Thin on story, crowded with characters and padded with extraneous action.
Rafer Guzman
The film struggles against the rigid formula that typifies the Marvel universe, but only does so up to a point.
Chris Cabin
Age of Ultron, then, shows what happens when an unstoppable force (Joss Whedon's imagination) meets an immovable object (the Disney/Marvel behemoth).
Dana Stevens
First, you try to understand what the hell is going on. Then you slowly realize that you will never understand what is going on. And, last, you wind up with the distinct impression that, if there was anything to understand, it wasn't worth the sweat.
Anthony Lane
At times it feels like it's a few handfuls of terrific actors away from being a 'Transformers' entry.
Matt Prigge
141 minutes of noise and incident.

Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron stars Robert Downey Jr., who returns as Iron Man, along with Chris Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Samuel L.
