Avengers Non Spoilery Review

From my not infallible, which makes me trust it even more, favorite review source, Pajiba:

Of course, it’s not quite that simple, and what makes The Avengers so absolutely remarkable is not the stunning battle scenes (and they are goddamn stunning), but that Whedon and company somehow managed to weave a separate but equally important and intriguing story about each and every character into the skein of this interstellar conflagration. The film is not Iron Man and his amazing friends. Unlike films like X-Men, where there was a team but the focus really was on only a couple of players, The Avengers gives each of them their time to shine, and they shine blindingly well.

And I stopped reading right there. I was going to see this movie anydamnway. This just takes away the nagging fear of disappointment. Yays.
