Product Description
A world in crisis. Age-old enemies on the verge of attack. A mighty team is recruited, and Earth's ultimate hero is sought to lead them- Captain America. Unfortunately, he's been frozen in ice for over sixty years. Inspired by Marvel's best-selling books, "The Ultimates," this is the extraordinary story of six very independent heroes who, like it or not, must 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!Customer Reviews
Great movie!Great adaptation of the re-imagined avengers. The ultimates captures the comics perfectly, one of the best animated movies out there. Shipping was quick and the movie arrived in the condition it was promised in.

Marvel rules!!
Meh
I haven't read the "Ultimate" reboot of the comics, or any comic in the past 16 years for that matter, so my opinion of these 2 films is not based on their relation to the comics.
I found the whole story for both films to be really rushed, and the villains were boring and uninspired (aliens... rly?). I would have much preferred the villains to be comic book villains we all know. They also made several characters quite annoying and unlikable (Bruce Banner/Hulk, Hank Pym, Black Widow), I don't know if those were products of the comic reboot, but I didn't care for it.
I did give it 3 stars, rather than 1, because the action was pretty good, there were some touching moments, and Cpt America was a likeable character.
Worth Watching, but "Ultimately" pretty disappointing
While managing to introduce some famous superheroes, Ultimate Avengers feels rushed and the characters underused. It has moments but never takes the time to develop anyone other than Captain America, Nick Fury and Bruce Banner. This is partly due to the film itself, and partly because it was released before major motion pictures Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk. After witnessing Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man, the Tony Stark here was incredibly disappointing. Bruce Banner is exceptionally whiny, and Thor is hardly even in the movie. However, there are some great moments with Wasp and Giant-Man and I appreciated being introduced to Black Widow.
The other aspects of the film are so-so. The art itself works pretty well, but most of the military equipment is drawn with cgi and apparently no effort was made to blend the two styles together. The story is adequate but its pacing helter skelter. I'm not very familiar with the Avengers, (I've read a few of the first issues, watched a few tv episodes, etc) so I at least appreciated getting to know some lesser known heroes and seeing the characters work as a team. I won't give away what it is, but the end fight is particularly impressive.
Overall, I enjoyed watching it but left feeling empty. Ultimate Avengers is worth seeing if you're a fan or want a quick introduction to the Avengers, but nothing worth adding to your DVD library. I'd recommend seeing Avengers just because your appreciation of Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, and the new Marvel films will be much, much higher.
