...I was impressed.
First let me say that the animation was crap. Pure crap. The only good part animation wise was the fight between the Avengers and the Hulk. That was awesome.
On the other hand, the story was actually pretty good. Except for a few typical superhero movie scenes, and the bit between Cap and Banner when they have their falling out, the movie was good. The story was writen well enough that I will probably pick up the next one.
What did you guys think?

yea the speacil section showed they have another one coming out in July
so guess maybe the QUESTIBLE animation makes it come out faster
The story good so I dont care.
Like how the Avenger was a little less how you say...TOTAL doucebags unlike the book.

I dunno. The comic book was so good and I do not think the movie can compete. I think I might wait and see if a unrated version comes out.
I had the opposite reaction...well, except for the animation being crap.
The music selection and frequency of use was outright laughable, the characters, aside from Banner, were underdeveloped, only having some of their traits expressed in brief introductions, the team formation was sloppy and ill explained "Iron man, Thor, glad you showed up with no explantion after saying you wouldn't work on a team!"
It felt generic, but given the popularity of the JLA cartoon, i'd imagine the kids will love this.

I thought the animation sucked and the story was very average. The alien enemies were underdeveloped and uninteresting. None of the Avengers were interesting, except for Captain America-- he was actually the only thing they did well. The voice acting was average, except for Thor and the Black Widow-- they were awful. The film has none of the edge of the comic book. And the plot is downright hackneyed in places.
I give it two stars out of four- worth a rental. Far below the best we've seen from Justice League and the other Bruce Timm productions.

DC's animation has always been better then Marvel's.
Aliens? I thought this was adaptation of the first Ultimates storyline.

Was it just me or did the Aliens resemble the Kree warriors from Ultimate Secret more than the Chitauri from Ultimates? I thought that was odd.

Yeah I thought they DID resemble like Kree warriors.
I went and bought this after I saw this thread(I actually forgot it came out today). I enjoyed it. I guess my only complaints of the whole thing was Iron Man's Armour, and I wish Hulk would have tried to kill Freddy Prince Jr. I'll watch it over again with more detail sometime tonight.

I thought this movie was God-awful. The animation, story, voice-acting, writing... everything! What a let-down. It's like an average arc from the old X-Men cartoon with slightly better animation. Slightly.

Personally I loved everything about it. First let me say there is no reason to compare this to any comic on the market. Just as we let the Ultimate Universe stand on it's own, we should let the animated universe stand on its own. Second, the animation really was pretty good, I hear people comparing it th JLU and DC animation yet I don't think people realize Marvel wanted a product that looked completely different and they succeeded. The story was good for a first movie since so much of it was plot building. The fight scenes were amazing and most of the powers were spot on with what one would expect of these heroes. I enjoyed seeing Captain come into his own. We should not expect after being frozen for 60 years that he would instantly come out as the Captain America we all know and love in comics today. To me seeing Captain grow into his leadership role was a great asset. I will leave it at that for now because I know most people probably still aren't reading. I will reply to further comments.

That was one of the funnest hours I've watched on a DVD in quite a while. It was pretty darn cool. I had a good time watching it. Nothing more than animated fluff, but very entertaining fluff.

I thought it was horrible. The animation was bad, just bad. With all the good animation on DC properties how did Marvel mess this up.
And the voice acting was the worst. There were parts where I actually thought I was watching a homemade dub or something. At first I thought maybe the script was bad too but I rewound a couple parts and I just think the voice actor's inflection was really off on a lot of scenes.
That's my critical review. My fanboy review is I don't understand why they tried to get away with having the best of both worlds of Avengers and Ultimates. A watered down PG-13 version of the Ultimates isn't worth watching at all IMO. There's just no point. I would have preferred a straight up Avengers cartoon. It wouldn't have changed the production quality, but I personally could have probably gotten more into it.
How many of these are Marvel supposed to make, 10 is it? I really hope there's a big learning curve and whoever's making these starts to figure stuff out. I'd rather they spent twice the money and made 5 good JLU/Batman/Superman-quality movies than 10 lackluster efforts like this.
I pray they've got this figured out before Doctor Strange and Cloak & Dagger.

I felt that this movie was a foreshadowing of what's gonna happen in Ultimates V3.
The animations were fine, the action sequencies were alright, but I have more negative things to say about it than positive.
1) Captain America: He was the reason I almost stopped watching. What did they do to Ultimate Captain America? That was not him, that was so loser boy scout that Avi Arad probably wanted to put in for the younger audience, just like he wanted to destroy what Grant Morrison did with the X-Men.
I can't believe they screwed up my favorite Ultimate character like that. Where's "Surrender? What do think this A stands for? France?", what ever happened to kicking Banner while he's down? That's what made Ultimate Capt cool in the first place.
2) Iron Man: I know this movie is PG-13 and all, but you could have shown a little bit more of Tony's billionare, womanizing, booze drinking side. Also, they could have also have added the tumor situation to add more drama. I'm not as angry about this issue than the first one, but it's still a problem.
3) The team itself: Why the f**k did they get their butts worked throughout the movie (aka why did they suck)? This also put me off a bit. In the comic, although they were getting pounded by the Hulk, they still had many plans in store for him, and they won. These guys looked like amatuers....
To me, this wasn't the Ultimates, at all. This was Avengers: Evolution. And quiet frankily, I feel like I wasted my money this movie, seeing how the source material is so much better.

But it was the Avengers, i think they didn't dare to go the Ultimates way.
If you wan't a film version of Ultimates this is not the film for you.
I don't really understand people that are amazed by this, even if it's good you can't have seem much animated movies if this amazases you.

It wouldn't have changed the production quality, but I personally could have probably gotten more into it.
the only problem i had with the voice acting was widow and thor, just really overdone accents. i wasn't impressed with the animation either but it had it's moments.
i tend to agree with this, i would've rather they went 1 way or the other with this and did either an origional avengers or a real(mature) ultimates movie, but then again the movie is called "ultimate avengers" so that might've been a clue it was going to be a cross between the 2.
i was really uninterested with the aliens, and don't really see any need for them to be in the movie, i would've rather seen more character interaction/development and then the fight with the hulk. all in all the payoff for this movie for me was the avengers vs hulk at the end, that was awesome and made the movie worth it for me.
about the special features, while i enjoyed the stuff about george perez & kurt b. i wondered why they didn't have more on mark millar & brian hitch, i mean the movie was more based on their book than anything else, i would've liked to hear more from them.

You hit it right on. The Ultimates is a book for mature readers. This movie is geared toward 10-14 year olds or something, so the best parts were left out. Ultimate Cap is fighting in a real war as a real soldier, but in the animated version he can't carry a gun. Ha! And of course you can't show spousal abuse, or a rampaging Hulk killing 400 people in Manhattan. It made me wonder why they bothered, and as another poster stated, I would have rather seen a straight-up adaptation of the Avengers than this tripe. Why not go back a few years and adapt the Busiek/Perez arc? That was pretty tame, and they wouldn't have had to compromise nearly as much.
Not to mention they left out some of the very best dialog for no apparent reason at all. In the opening sequence, I was just waiting for the great interaction between Bucky and Kowalski, ("Captain America never wears a parachute. He says they're for girls!") And there was total silence when Cap should have been on the radio arguing with "Birdman" about the last minute change of plans. Not to mention the absence of my favorite line from that sequence. "What are you ladies waiting for? Christmas?!"
Then there was the total recreation of Starks character, who should have been eccentric and open about the fact that not only was he Iron Man, he was scared shit-less most of the time just climbing into the armor. (I suppose because a hero can't be a drunk with a brain tumor and a flamboyantly gay butler.) And I hated the lack of character and shortened screen-time by Thor, who in my opinion is the most intriguing character in the series. They missed some great possible interactions between he and Tony. Their friendship is one of the best things about the whole Ultimates series.
What a dissappointment...

You guys have pretty much summed up my opinion of the film -- I'm glad I only rented it instead of buying it.
There was one weird thing in it and I don't want to make a mountain out of a molehill or anything, but I just want to see if I'm the only person who sees this or not?

Also, what was with that Avengers Assembled documentary? 75% of it was George Perez tooting his own horn?! It didn't make sense to me that if they were going to do a film based (largely) on The Ultimates that they would only have Mark Millar in the documentary about it for about 30 seconds total and Bryan Hitch in it for none.

Why do you guys want a rated R move? This movie was barely a PG-13. Look at what they get away with in PG-13 movies nowadays. Lord of the Rings was violent out the wazoo. Mr. & Mrs. Smith was about killing and sex! So I say the PG-13 was misleading, but did you honestly expect much more than you can see on Saturday morning? I bet Marvel begged for a PG-13 rating on this just to seem more adult.

1) I suspect Millar and Hitch are so disgusted with the product that they preferred to keep their distance as much as humanly possible.
2) George Perez has contributed far more to the success of the Avengers over the decades than anything Millar or Hitch have.
That explain it well enough for you?

Not really.
Regardless of whether or not he's contributed far more to the success of the Avengers, his domination of the documentary was bizarre. It was more of a celebration of him than it was a history of the Avengers.

Aww... You mean there's no Wasp going, "Hey, Banner! Does Betty Ross have a rack like these?" That's the only thing from The Ultimates that I remember.

I finally watched it last night and enjoyed it. Not the best comic movie--animated or live action--but it was a step in the right direction for Marvel's animation projects. Some of the voice talent seemed to be off, but it was still decent. It wasn't a strict adaption of Ultimates, but a mix of Ultimates and Avengers; enough to be fairly enjoyable. I'll be picking up the sequel this summer, but probably not the Iron Man or Dr. Strange movies.
But I agree, we NEED more Thor in the next film!
And hey, long time DC animation director Curt Geda was a co-director, so maybe Marvel is paying attention.

02-23-2006, 10:47 PM
I felt "meh" about the movie--didn't hate it, but I actually found my attention drifting while watching. Not a good sign, because I'm generally engaged by good animated/superhero features. Like others have already said, I think the story would have worked better if they'd lost the "Ultimates" part and simply made it an "Avengers" story. Dumbing down the story and losing the mature aspects disqualifies the movie from being "Ultimates", imo. I also would have rather seen more Thor and Scarlet Witch instead of the Black Widow.

02-24-2006, 03:56 AM
:confused: I dont know if anyone has noticed this,,but in the special section of the movie, if you watch the trailers and teaser portion, the second trailer showed scenes that were not even in the film! As a matter of fact, they seemed to be of a different animation quality, much darker and grittier, more like a japanese manga film, a style which I feel fits more appropriately for the film, rather than the seemingly Saturday morning cartoon style it currently is. Those were scenes that were captured directly from the comic itself, with Iron MAn crashing Hulk into Grand Central Station; Thor sporting a beard; Cap fighting Hulk in the streets; even the restaurant scene i think where Betty Ross was having a dinner date with Freddie Prince jr., all directly from the original story arc! So what happened?? I dont think those were cut from the film, judging from the much better animation quality, and character designs, but me thinks that either there was a second more mature and true to the original version of this movie or those scenes were specifically done for that teaser spot alone. Either way, even though it was pretty short, I kinda preferred the style, and it seemed waay better than the cheap kiddie look of the dvd film. The movie just didnt feel that epic the way Marvel wants it to be, instead it feels more like a regular cartoon show. I seriously hope there is a second version of this film to be released, just like what happened with the recent Exsorcist film. What do you guys think??

Alex Dragon

The saddest part about this is that Marvel had total control of this and had a great story already done in comicbook form to follow and yet still managed to make a sub-par movie.
I agree with others that they should've done either an AVENGERS or an ULTIMATES movie and not some sort of melding of the two. I guess I can understand trying to make something that would appeal to kids but if that was the case they should've just went with an AVENGERS movie with it's more appropriate kids tone. I think if they had done a real PG-13 version of THE ULTIMATES that appealed to an older crowd it could've sold just as well or even better to adults (and kids would've still checked it out).
The movie should've been longer. The animation was Saturday morning level stuff. It should've been computer animated. Marvel had plenty of time to get this done and should've tried to do something of higher quality considering it was their big debut with their Animated movies. It wasn't horrible but it could've been much better. This isn't the type of stuff you'll want to watch again and again so buying the DVD seems like a waste. I bought this DVD because my video store didn't carry in for rental but I doubt I'll buy anymore unless I hear about a big improvement in quality.

you geeks are tripping this movie was great,the animation was beautifully done.the only complaint i had was that it was too short.most of the complaints i hear are EXTREMLY exaggerated.i suppose a battered and bloodied captain america isn't adult enough :rolleyes: .not to mention people was constantly dieing in this film.plus the voice actors on this film are some of the best in the industry.
ok my counter bitching aside, i liked the way savage hulk was laying the almighty green smackdown on the avengers.how he took down giant man was bad ass.i also liked how he used brute strength to pick up thor's hammer and nail him with it :eek: (the look on thor's face when hulk picked up mijhor was priceless).hell the fight with hulk is worth the dvd alone.

*Tequilamokinbrd raises hand*
And for the record I thought it was good, not awesome or a must see, but I didn't really regret my $14.98, I've spent more money on worse things (*cough Hush cough*). Animation could have been better and some things were corny, but the fights were cool and I liked when Pym smacked Tony out of the air.

Anyone besides me think that they kinda knew the animation wasn't that great when in the trivia track they talk up how hard it was to do? I felt like they were fishing for my compliments, hoping I'd say, "yeah, hulks muscles ARE quite detailed!"
Well sorry Marvel, I've seen JLU, and they've set a standard that you can't talk your way out of.
Was still mostly enjoyable, however.

Not all of the animation sucked, like the intro was pretty good and such. But other times it looked like they had cutouts taped to popsicle sticks.
The story wasnt to bad but it wasnt to good either. They wrapped it all to easy and quick. You cant introduce villians like that plus all those heroes in 70 minutes. It was to rushed and cramped. Soon as it got started it was over.
Voice acting for some was decent while others was awful. I didnt like hulk, thor or captain america. The others were ok.
Overall it was a pale shadow of what it could have been. I was dissapointed. Although it was neat to see it on screen. Hope they fix problems next go around.

03-05-2006, 02:59 PM
Well Tish, this may all be in my head, but when comparing JLU to UATM, the animation in JLU seems a) smoother(in terms of how the characters move), b) cleaner, and c) brighter and eaiser to look at without seeming overly bright and cheery.
Ultimate Avengers' animation seemed to be dark and muddy in an attempt to make up for grittyness that was lacking in the script, and in certain parts, the characters were moving like robots.
It's all of course IMHO, but that's the way it seems to me.

I imported the Region 1 DVD and watched it on Saturday. It wasn't bad... the animation wasn't too but and the story was pretty good too (up until the ending where it just became a big fight).
One thing that did annoy me was how most ofthe origins of the characters weren't explained and the ones that were were done so in one line. Now, I know all these characters origins but if this movie is meant to reach new audiences etc. it should try and explain them better. Perhaps as extras they could of had 2 minute segments for each character explaining who they are, what powers they have and how they got them.
The voices didn't really fit some of the characters either.
For the first movie though it wasn't bad and hopefully they'll only improve.

I thought the animation was just fine (could have been better, but didn't distract me).
What I really like was how the plot was kid-friendly without being childish. They could have shown full frontal nudity and dropped some superfluous F-bombs, but they didn't, and even though the action was rugged (damn Hulk kicked the crap out of Iron Man) they didn't have lots of blood. I enjoyed the movie with my 9 year old nephew as well as watching it with my adult comic buddies.

I didn't think it was so bad. The animation was fine and the story was decent, though flawed.
I really enjoyed the extras, though. I'd never heard Busiek, Perez, or Millar talk before and I enjoyed'em all.

Looks better on the PSP than it does on a TV. Not sure why.
My extensive review: meh.

I'm not sure what's up with all the animation hate. It's not the best out there but it sure as hell didn't animate like a flash movie
I just can't figure out why it was PG-13 0_o

I'm not sure what's up with all the animation hate. Same here. I thought it was pretty decent.
I've seen a helluva lot worse - from Marvel, even.
I just can't figure out why it was PG-13 0_oMy guess: Death.
More living beings, including humans, died in this animated feature than in the entire Hulk movie.

Btw, that one line, "Who's the chick with the hammer," was priceless.
Big points for that one.

More living beings, including humans, died in this animated feature than in the entire Hulk movie.especialy during the opening segment.a guy get hit with a mortar round,a guy got shot and spewed blood (it was shown in the top right corner).a guy was dead and hanging from his parachute.the alien that infiltrated the military base and killed EVERYBODY!.yeah the movie isn't a mature cartoon,but to say it was made SPECIFICALY for kids is absurd and exaggerated. :rolleyes:
Can someone please explain why the Hulk was able to pick up Thor's hammer?

Holy Hell, Ultimate Avengers was one of the funniest movies I ever saw.
My reason for saying this was because once Giant Man started fighting
the Hulk, and basically got ass raped by him, I was on the floor dying with
laughter.
My god was he crap in that movie. Out of everyone, he did the worst. At
least Cap, Iron Man, Wasp, Thor, hell even Black Widow did something.
-Kicked in the knee and brought down (First move Hulk did to him too)
-KOed with a rock to the head (Wasn't even the size of a boulder)
-Chocked him out
-Jumped on him hard
-Uppercuts him
And Giant Man's only shot off him was punching him through the floor.
Sad.
