It's not my favourite Marvel movie but I thought it was good. It's picked up a certain amount of Avatar-like backlash (Cameron's Avatar that is) because when you get a film so phenomenonally successful and highly praised, people who thought it was just mildly enjoyable will feel its praise undeserved and will talk it down to counteract the people talking it up.
