Loki is such a jobber in this movie. Any fight scene hes involved in is so lame. Hulk tossing him around like a sack of potatoes at the end would have been far more rewarding if he kicked any kind of ass in this movie.

But I like how every character gets to have multiple moments showcasing their skills, intelligence, etc.

The real tough thing for me though is some of Joss Whedons dialogue. Some of it is fantastic. an ant has no quarrel with a boot for example.

some of it is so fucking forced and cringy

Coulson
When he's not that thing though, guy's like a Stephen Hawking.a really smart guy

Fury
How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war. You steal a force you can't hope to control. You talk about peace and you kill cause it's fun.

This ending line is so bad it kills the entire speech he gives. Kill cause its fun like thats the best he could come up with?

And just some of his writing tent poles that show up many times through the movie that are so forced and cringy to me.

This is a man who means to start a war,

Loki means to unleash the Hulk.

This place is about to blow. Drop a hundred feet of rock on us. He means to bury us.

what's his play?

So, Banner... that's your play.

The only thing you really fight for is yourself. You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play

so damn cringey to me.

Seems like you have the means to overly scrutinize dialogue.

Meh. Dialogue is fine. Not the height of the saga but pretty good.

The movie doesn't really have a story.

Sorry, just how I feel. It's a good movie but it's just a team-up movie, there's no underlying plot.

The way it's filmed is so horrendous to me even all these years later

It just looks... bad. Which is funny, because it's otherwise a very enjoyable flick.

Nah

Loki feeling like hes owed a throne attempts to bargain with Thanos for an army, invades earth. Must be stopped, people team up to stop him. The death of Coulson is ultimately what binds the team tigger forwards a common threat.

Beyond that Thanos used Loki as a pawn, gambling one infinity stone to get two, but also seeing what the earth is capable of, as he wasnt fully ready to exact his plan.

It also sets up the friction between captain America and Iron Man.

I dont agree with this critique at all.

Thors hair and eyebrows are so bad in the early films.
