It can be difficult to determine the start of the summer in this part of the world. One obvious clue is the clocks going forward by one hour and the other slightly more obvious hint is the sudden emergence of superhero movies made with gargantuan budgets in multiplexes all over the Northern Hemisphere. Fortunately, with the release of Marvel’s Avengers Assemble, this summer promises to be no different. And fortunately again, Assemble promises not so much to be a superhero movie but a kind of superhero orgy characterised by a frenzy of flowing capes, mutating monsters, exploding spaceships and infinitely expanding egos. Overall the best attributes of any decent summer blockbuster.
