Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This quick clip after the Avengers is actually kind of interesting. It is short so not a lot of stuff is happening but it actually is when you think about it.The new characters in Claire, Ben and Agent Blake are interesting enough but I am glad the Sitwell was able to sort of prove that he is a capable physical agent.Lizzy Caplan and Titus Welliver are a joy on any screen and they hope they can make an appearance.What really makes this interesting to me is that there are people in the world, using alien technology for their own benefit. This is most likely happening a lot around the world and due to this, Damage Control , an entity created to literally clean up messes, can be introduced.+ Caplan and Welliver + Sitwell does more + People get alien technology could be a problem in the future + Damage Control? - Not long enough7.8/10

This is a 12 minute short film that center around after the events of The Avengers as Agent Blake (Titus Welliver) orders Jasper Sitwell (Maximiliano Hernández) to look for the Chitauri weapon which unfortunately gets into the hands of a young couple Claire (Lizzy Caplan) and Benjamin 'Beenie' Pollock (Jesse Bradford) who use the weapon to rob a bank.Now for a short film they did make it interesting for the Blu Ray release of the Avengers which is how you can watch this film. The film has some good effects and the setting gives us the film of being in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And it does feature a good plot of course it has a mid credit scene as Marvel films are known form. The acting here works well for it plot with some comedy added to the filmSomeone in the music department has a good taste in music since it features "Just what I needed" by The Cars which helps for the film's climax. Overall Marvel One-Shot:Item 47 does make for a interesting bonus film you get on the Blue Ray Copy of The Avengers and it shouldn't be a disappointment if you're a Marvel fan.I give Marvel One-Shot:Item 47 an 7 out of 10

This 11-minute short films is a decent little spin off from 2012's highest grossing movie, The Avengers. It's by no means bad or great, but tells us a nice little side-story about a couple (I thought the guy looked pretty similar to Colin Farrell) robbing banks with an incredibly fancy shotgun.The two don't seem really evil or sinister, just disappointed one time too many and consequently drifted into crime. The agent at the hunt for the gun manages to confront the couple at a hotel, tricks them with the help of some noisy bass music and finally arrests the two after a short shootout. However, he seems to share my interpretation of Marvel's Bonnie and Clyde motivations, so he shows some heart, gets them decent clothing and employs the two as government agents. There's more of these one-shot short films and watching them makes a good enough way of bridging the time gap till the next superhero from the Avengers bunch lands in our cinemas.

This is a nice bonus to the film The Avengers (2012). It shows a couple—Claire and Benny— robbing banks with a piece of alien technology that they've recovered from the NewYork battle site. Eventually we see them in a motel room with a load of money. Their neighbor stars playing music really loud. Benny goes out to investigate, but doesn't return…I actually thought it was a preview for a new Marvel film and got quite excited by the idea. My hopes were shot down when I found it was just a short video. Alas, there's nothing else to do than wait for The Avengers 2.It has some clever moments and is really worth a viewing.
