This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The Invincible Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk must join forces to save the Earth from its greatest threat yet. I didn't want to believe the reviews for this film at first but as it kept going it became less and less exciting and it pains me to say it but this is a very disappointing film and although Iron Man and Hulk are doing a great job and the humor sometimes is pretty nice the rest of the film kinda bored me, the animation was nothing special and it seems that Marvel is trying very hard to copy DC but so far they have failed pretty badly. Kids around the age of 6 or 8 will probably love it but teens and parents will easily forget it the next day. (6/10)

It sure has been a while, hasn't it? No one has seen much of the Marvel animated features since "Thor: Tales of Asgard", which itself was decent but not too exciting. In the absence of these films, the DC animated features filled the void and have given quite a number grand stories to tell. After having its fun with four anime series, Marvel Animation finally gets back on its feet with producing some films, but this time trying out some CGI instead of hand-drawn animation. Along comes "Ironman and Hulk: Heroes United", which had its release delayed by several months for some reason, but now that it's here, what I think of it? Eh, let's take a look.Plot: The evil organization Hydra has the Abomination capture the Hulk in order to harness their combined incredible might. However, their gamma power proves too much to handle and soon a new monstrosity is born, Zzzax, a powerful entity composed of pure energy who is literally hungry for power. After initially getting off on the wrong foot Iron Man and Hulk must battle their way through daunting odds from killer robots to man-eating Wendigos to stop this new electrifying foe while getting over their seemingly incompatible natures. Can brain and brawn save the day before time runs out? What we have here is a film with a good deal of potential, but truth be told it leaves me really conflicted on it. What do I mean by this?On one hand, we have a good setup of heroes and villains here for the most part. They're all perfectly cast like Fred Tatasciore as Hulk, Adrian Pasdar as Iron Man, Dee Bradley Baker as Zzzax, etc. On top of that, the character designs are pretty darn cool and have some nice details like the various Iron Man armors with their color schemes, the Wendigos that have a savage and scary look to them, and the heroes themselves who bear some resemblance to their live-action counterparts. Zzzax looks, sounds, and acts genuinely menacing, which ups the antics and raises the stakes for this adventure My favorite design (not to mention character) in the whole film is the Abomination, who looks absolutely awesome, like a hulking dragon-esque creature.On the other hand, while the villains are given some good lines, a lot of the dialog the heroes are given feels very off. Iron Man tends to act a bit immature even to his own tech like Jarvis. At least Robert Downey Jr. had some charm in his role. Then, we have probably the most talkative Hulk ever. I mean, granted he does talk normal in the comic books sometimes and I can understand the filmmakers wanted him to say more than just the simple third-person lines, but this is a bit overkill. Even in some of the recent animates shows, Hulk tends to talk minimally, which is the complete opposite here. This combined with the lame dialog between the two knocks a few points down. Also, there's really no point having the Wendigos around as they serve no real purpose in the plot beyond providing another action scene to extend the movie and while Abomination does play an integral part to the story, he kinda gets shafted after the first act of the movie. I would have liked for him to be more involved in the story.The sound effects are quite good, nearly every punch and explosion felt natural. The action scenes, when one gets down to it, are good. The environments get torn apart nicely (especially with Hulk vs Abomination) and they come up with some nice twists like Iron Man becoming Hulk's "eyes" during the cemetery fight or when Hulk himself has to wear bits of technology to get the job done.However, the animation is noticeably imperfect. You'd think with the release delayed that they'd fix up on the animation, but they didn't and so characters tend to move unnaturally at certain moments, especially when Hulk is running, walking, or even talking and Iron Man fighting in general. Because the story is a little short, there are certain scenes that seem to drag on more than necessary. As a result, what is ultimately a 70 minute film feel like a 2-3 hour long one and it kinda feels dull at times, with the action scenes providing the only bit of real excitement around here.I'm not sure what else I could say about this one. There's some good things here as well as some bad ones. Nice action scenes, great character designs, and a decent plot are mixed with flawed animation, lame dialog on the heroes' part, and moments that feel dull and drag. It seems that Marvel should stick to hand-drawn animation rather than rely on CG in an already CGI-spoiled society. Though not quite recommended, I'd at least rent this one for some superhero entertainment.

I am in awe and disbelief at HOW this cartoon got such negative reviews unless it is from DC Comics because they are a failing company. In any event, DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE HATERS!! This animation of hulk and iron man is by far the BEST cartoon out there!! Amazing fighting, amazing GRAPHICS (to all you haters, what of the graphics do you NOT LIKE??!? Explain!!) amazing story line, and great GREAT dialogue! Hulk is hilarious, and Iron Man is just that...Iron man with a cocky attitude and the great toys. Mix tech and muscle, you get this team up! Now one more thing before I get on to the movie: For those of you that COMPLAIN about how the Hulk speaks... this is the personality of the Hulk that is in the current Avengers Assemble animation, with more intelligence then pure HULK SMASH. This is the Hulk that should always be. He is intelligent, funny and a GREAT character! Now that I have blown of some steam and made my point to the haters that complain about an awesome movie, ON TO THE MOVIE ITSELF! The story line is about Zzak coming to life after Hydra attempts to build a weapon, then attempts to absorb all energy of the earth and so Hulk and Iron Man have to shut him down. This movie includes a TON of battle scenes, a ton of funny scenes, and a great storyline. The scene of the Wendigo's and the Abomination in this was simply awesome and would have loved to have seen more of them, hence the 9. I will say this... YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! oh and yes, this has a Hulkbuster suit in there!!

After watching the first 10min I seriously had to do some research, if this was a real Marvel production. In my opinion this is a "C-Class animated movie" at best. Definitely not what I expected from something with a Marvel label.The title should have been "Iron Man & Shrek in an Hulk costume: Heroes United", and I would have had the adequate expectations for this. In my opinion this green mixture between Oprah and Jim Carrey is just ridiculous for an Hulk interpretation. I wonder if any one who was in charge of this ever saw a Hulk comic. For me it looks like they got confused and mixed up Shrek and Hulk.The story is weak, quite a lot of inconsistencies and gets more ludicrous by the minute. I'm pretty disappointed, I did expect something more along the lines with "Hulk vs. Thor" or "Hulk vs. Wolverine".
