It's pretty clear that Marvel's entire film-making machine was leading up to this effort, a movie that nobody thought could be made because it involved Hollywood putting aside egos, directors joining forces, and intellectual property being leveraged in such a way that everyone plays nicely together behind the scenes, even if the characters don't play nicely together on screen. Somehow, God bless them, Marvel actually pulled it off.

Picking up where "Captain America," "Thor," and "Iron Man" left off, the Strategic Homeland, Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division (SHIELD) led by Nicky Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), commands a ragtag band of agents that just happen to work on a flying aircraft carrier: Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders, unfortunately miscast), Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner, not quite as sarcastic as he should be) as Hawkeye, and Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johnannson) as Black Widow. Their mission is to retrieve the Tesseract (AKA the Cosmic Cube) from Asgardian Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and his Predator-like race of alien soldiers known as the Chitauri.
