Well here we are, a year and 10 months later - my 100th published post on Under a Blue Pen! Yesterday I published my 50th review of a Shakespeare film, which is also quite a big number, but for my 100th I thought I'd do something special, something that really gets me enthused and excited: a superhero movie. And what better review to mark this momentous milestone than with the MCU's recent blockbuster spectacular, 'Avengers: Age of Ultron'.

According to Cineworld, in the UK alone 18,400 people looked at cinema booking for 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' in last 24 hours alone. After the monumental success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe so far, the extraordinary first ensemble Marvel film, 'Avengers: Assemble' and the unexpectedly spectacular epic which was 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier', Joss Whedon's latest entry to the MCU and to the Avengers saga manages to continue the legacy, deftly channel the meteoric energy blasting through from the rest of the series which began so long ago and not fail at throwing all of the right punches.
