This was the most disappointing movie I've seen in a long time. Dont waste your time or money.

I think you either love ir hate the film. I have always loved it, I thought it brought back my memories of the T V series.

I felt forced to write a comment on this movie, because I had previously found it on the top list of worst movies of all times. I still believe it was a nice try, good actors, good acting and lyrically beautiful! I guess most people who had seen this movie concentrated too much on the plot, which actually doesn't really exist, but the movie is not about a possible interesting plot. The movie Avengers entertain us in a different way, it is more like a theatrical piece on the big screen. I really enjoyed the spoken words in the movie, poems replaced conversations. And all this lingual beauty put in a colorful, amazingly well-made, painting-like cinematography. This movie is like indulging ourselves in the world of beautiful paintings and colors, and literature at the same time. So who cares about any plot?

This is the worst film ever made with good actors bar none. What were they thinking. They have assembled some of the cream of Hollywood acting talent and managed to get the worst performance of each leading roles career.It is a miracle that Sean Connery, Uma Thurman and Ralph Feinnes were all duped into thinking that this was a Stella project to work on.The direction is poor.The script is dreadful.Thurmans accent is awful.Even the effects are below par.The exec who commissioned this tosh must have lost his job after this was aired. It is so bad that it should have been puled before decent people had the displeasure of watching it. Seriously mad man taking over the world with bad weather, I know it is only fiction but how unberleiverble can you get. This film serves as a fine example that you should never under any circumstances revert back to the past. If I could put a lower score I would have done.

Razzie Awards, that is. Like another recent TV-to-film adaption, LOST IN SPACE, THE AVENGERS has a totally unintelligible plot. The shots of the English countryside were nice and so was the wardrobe, but that's about it. This flick will collect quite a bit of dust when it arrives on video.

John Steed (Ralph Fiennes) is a top agent of The Ministry. Someone has sabotaged the weather shield Prospero program. Mother (Jim Broadbent) brings in former head of the program Emma Peel (Uma Thurman) to help investigate as a partner with Steed and as a prime suspect. Her double is seen on the security camera and Father (Fiona Shaw) wonders if she suffers from mental illness. They visit former Ministry man weather-obsessed Sir August De Wynter (Sean Connery). This is trying very hard to be funny. It's a lot of wacky but none of it is actually funny. The movie comes with all kinds of bells and whistles. The other problem is that none of it is thrilling. It is so silly that it can't maintain any tension. It's a basic miscalculation at the movie's DNA level.

Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman are assigned to rescue England from bad guy whether fetishist Sean Connery. The acting is poor. The effects are a joke. Worst of all, there isn't a suspicion of a plot. Long before the end is in sight, you'll only keep watching to see if it can get any worse. It does. At the risk of stating the obvious, The Avengers is complete crap.

When I saw this movie in the cinema I was quite disappointed and utterly confused why anyone would launch such a mess of a story. Learning later that the studio hat cut maybe half an hour explained a lot, but not why anyone would think this was an improvement! Still, I have seen much worse movies in my life and there are a few nice scenes. Now if someone could patch together a better version from the mess they must have created in the cutting room we might have a nice popcorn flick.
