CORPORATE LINE: In 1945, Humanity was on the brink of annihilation as sinister forces pushed to seize control of the free world, and only one man rose up to stop them. When a nuclear missile was fired at the Capitol, CAPTAIN AMERICA™ managed to detonate it in the upper atmosphere, but in the process he sacrificed himself, falling miles into the icy depths of the North Atlantic, where he remained lost for over sixty years. Now, with the world facing the very same evil, Captain America must rise once again as the last hope for survival, and lead a strong-willed team of today’s superheroes:
* IRON MAN™, the billionaire bachelor used to doing things his own way
* THE HULK™, the destructive force Bruce Banner hopes to turn into a useful team member
* THOR™, a hero who has responsibilities to both the world of man and the world of gods
* WASP™, a petite powerhouse who sees the team as a fresh start for her and her husband
* GIANT MAN™, sixty feet tall with an equally large chip on his shoulder
* CAPTAIN AMERICA, a star-spangled idealist resurrected from a 60 year deep-freeze because this team needs a super-soldier to lead them
Individually, they are superheroes. United, they are The Avengers. Ultimate Avengers: The Movie is the extraordinary story of six very independent heroes who must – like it or not – fight as one to save the world. Little did they know that their biggest threat would emerge from within their very own ranks – The Incredible Hulk!
THE REVIEW: The Ultimate Avengers 2 sequel picks up where the first ended. There are massive battles happening between the superheroes and these conflicts must be put on hold in order to take on aliens. The story itself is very strong as the film doesn’t focus only on battles but also the heroes personal struggles and inner turmoil.
THE EXTRAS: “Avengers Assemble” Featurette, The Ultimate Voice Talent Search, What Avenger Are You? DVD-ROM game, a FIRST LOOK at Ultimate Avengers II, Avengers Trivia Track, animated interactive menus, and trailer gallery.
FRANKLY: Ultimate Avengers 2 is a must buy for comic book fans and those who love superhero movies.
