"Avengers: Age Of Ultron" Is A Non-stop Thrill Ride

DETROIT (WWJ) – Sit down, buckle up and get ready for the non-stop thrill ride that is "Avengers: Age of Ultron." From the very moment the movie opens, the Avengers are doing what they do best: fighting to save mankind. This time around, they're up against one of their most dangerous foes: Ultron.

The battle against Ultron ensues after Tony Stark convinces David Banner to help him develop artificial intelligence. Tony means well – as he always does – but things go awry with Ultron's relentless pursuit of world domination. With the future of mankind – or lack thereof – hanging in the balance, The Avengers get to work.

Also figuring into the picture along with Ultron, are the mysterious newcomers Wanda and Pietro Maximoff. The powerful twins make The Avengers' work even more challenging than it already is going up against Ultron. Also new to the story, sort of, is The Vision. Actually, as Marvel fans know, The Vision is an old friend who takes on a new form.

There's a lot going on in "Avengers: Age of Ultron," but it definitely keeps the story interesting. This latest installment in the Marvel hit-making machine is sure to be yet another crowd favorite. In fact, here's what some fans who were lucky enough to see an early screening in the Detroit area had to say:

"It was really entertaining, pretty action-packed. I thought the action was good, and I thought it was a lot of fun."

"It was great; it was a very entertaining, wild ride."

"I thought it was awesome."

"I really liked it better than the first Avengers; be there day one!"

And, I have to agree. See you at the movies!
