Perfect? No. Fun? Yes

I absolutely love James Spader voicing Ultron. I wish they would bring him back somehow in another film. He does a great performance and I thought it would be startling as Spader has a very distinct voice. However, he takes the role and makes it his own.
The Bad: the beats are the same as the first Avengers film. There was really nothing new. Characters are introduced to be killed off with no real meaning to their death. Great lines and scenes but not consistent enough to give it a 10/10

This show doesn't need a long review - it's too perfect. Too funny. Too clever. the chemistry between James Spader and William Shatner as Alan and Denny respectively draws you in and makes you wish they were your buddies, that you could hang out with them on the penthouse office balcony, talking philosophically about life with a cigar in one hand and a fine scotch whiskey in the other. The cast is superb and the writing brilliant...Thank you David E Kelly et al.

Definitely not what I was suspecting of the second Avengers movie. I actually got bored at a few points. Not a fan of the ending but at leas they made a lot of sense of it in Ragnarok. Was not happy with a certain death. However James Spader as the voice of Ultron made it very worth while as I am a huge fan of The Blacklist.

FBI action series with a twist
This American crime thriller series focuses on criminal mastermind Raymond Reddington (James Spader) who turns FBI informant; as long as he can work with a particular agent: Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone.)
Initially the series follows a very episodic nature with Reddington providing info on particular bad guy and the FBI team chasing them down, it’s good fun and nice to the more recent trend of series long arcs. However as the series progresses you get a more ongoing underlying story hinting at why he insists on working with relative FBI rookie Keen and it’s engaging enough to keep coming back for the full 22 episodes of this first season. Some of the CGI especially early on is laughable but I've never let that stop me having a good time.
James Spader at times is amazing and others a tad cringe worthy, while Boone is unremarkable I did like Parminder Naga as agent Malik a lot. Overall entertaining diversion, I will be carrying on with the next season.
