Methinks your expectations are a bit too high.

The first act of the movie is definitely a weak point compared with the rest of it.

However aside from that, it's a very good movie. For a large ensemble cast, the development is decent. Pacing and "tightness" of the storyline is far better than the first Avengers. And most importantly, it does not feel like the movie is all about racing towards that one big climatic battle versus Ultron in the same way that Avengers was about that invasion of New York.

I would put it on the same level as Winter Soldier and Iron Man. It definitely has weaknesses, but those weaknesses that are probably inevitable for a huge team-up movie.

Phase 2 only marathon would have been much better.

Keep in mind this was 29 hours... starting 5pm on a workday.

Adrenaline woke me up near the end enough to enjoy Age of Ultron immensely. But I got home around 1 and only got six hours of sleep so I felt like death at work Wednesday. Slept 14 hrs last night crashing as soon as I got home and still vaguely feel like crap.

Interesting fact. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are referred to as Mutants in Russian release. Are they still calling them miracles in English language version?

They are referred to as "Empowered" or "Enhanced"

I'm impatient so i "got a copy early". I enjoyed the hell out of it as I expected, with only 1 small wtf moment which isn't a spoiler so I won't bother because it's from the scene where Stark & Hulk fight:

Do they not have television or internet in the part of the world where that fight happened to know shooting bullets at Hulk kinda just pisses him off?

Cool action scenes, though some are a little over-the-top(Hulkbuster was done right imo). Not sure if they just was to make Cap/BW/Hawkeye seem more badass but they don't need the transformers treatment.
James Spader performance was A+ as expected.

Entertaining. Didn't have the same feel as the first one.

The movie was entertaining but for me Ultron didn't get enough screen time. I was hoping for a great villain and he's just not on the same level as Loki for me. I enjoyed the spectacle but I don't know if I'd call it a great movie. Lots of jokes fall flat and in the end the movie is very predictable. You know everyone going to be fine so it's hard for me to get invested in the story.
At the end of the movie I was excited for new roster though. I realized this movie I'm tired of Tony Stark

Marvel Heroes released a AoU pack and this happened

Hulkbuster armor is huge.

as others have said, it was entertaining enough, but nothing amazing. lots of loose ends i would have liked to see addressed (or at least hinted at for next time).
