Marvel Super Hero Adventures: Frost Fight!

OK, I'm going to be the Grinch here, and begrudgingly give this 1 star, but only because there isn't a 0 star option. This flick is unbelievably terrible, as yet another movie that tries to backdoor the tired "religion and faith are better than knowledge or science" lesson--a horrible concept to teach a child. This even tops the "Magic is just super-advanced science" as the worst motif and lesson that can be taught to a child. There is no part of this story that isn't the smelliest, most terrible cheese you've ever encountered. This makes the 1960s Batman TV show look like a serious drama. (Yes, I know that's DC and this is Marvel, but Marvel didn't really have any TV show presence that could provide a guideline or reference.) This show is campier than a pride parade or a boy-scout troop on wilderness survival training. It is Ed Wood bad, without the charm or accidental merit. The writing is worse than the Star Wars Prequels. Heck, this movie manages to be even worse than the 1978 Star Wars Christmas Special!!!

When I had seen the rating of this movie I expected poorly animated movie with few stupid jokes... But I was totally surprised because I could not resist to smile to so many classic Avengers jokes - people on train had to think I was watching some really great comedy.

To sum up: This movie is holiday special and should be watched with that in mind. But to be honest I hardly saw better Christmas movie than this one...

Those who look for some "serious" Avengers movie, pick some of Marvel Animated Features collection but if you are looking for funny movie with some original idea how to bring Christmas topic to Avengers movie, it is worth the shot.

This swings far far away from Avengers Assemble to the point of Marvel Super Hero Squad. There's a lot of kid humor and it's too child friendly. 'Frost Fight' offers nothing to an older audience. Teen fans will hate it, adult fans will immediately notice how cheaply this was made, and anyone under the age of 10 will have a lot of fun with it.

It presents the Carol Danver's version of Captain Marvel which I was hopeful about, but I found myself missing Hawkeye & Black Widow. Her look is kind of dated and is out-of-place with the other artwork. Basically a completely different art-style.

There's a trainee kid who goes by 'Reptil' that I found incredibly annoying. His power is having pterodactyl wings. It's a throw-away character that you might expect to be killed off (for sake of showing death) without erasing a major character.

Steve Rodgers/Captain America and Tony Stark/Iron Man have different voice actors. It sounds close, but it's a little weird. I personally have a pet-peeve about Marvel changing voice actors just for the films.

Santa Claus & Mrs. Claus make their way into the story and it's the Kiss Meets Santa joke from Family Guy. Yeah - Somebody threw out a movie really fast and whoever did it should be fired. Grossly incompetent choices were made about this release.

Neglected without reason, with bad raiting!

As most of Marvels Animation..

I guess today's people if it's not live action, and with "real" voices.. nahh..

It's perfect!

I watched, and still haven't finish.. Full that Marvel Animated Universe which they've made with series in many many seasons and episodes.. From Ultimate Spider Man, Avengers Assemble, Hulk and the Agents of S. M. A. S. H, Guardians, etc.. Where all of you can see and meet and learn so much, when you get into it.. You actually realize how much they have, how many stories, heros, how much potention for stories, for movies.. After watchinn few seasons.. I was like.. I'm dissappointed actually in them, they gave us so little, they could've make much more, explore much more, so we could watch example Iron Man for so long..

As here now, this is one of few which they made in that era of series, in that era we got and few specials or, better to say, animated movies, this one was for Holidays for Christmas!

And when you follow series, you are well known with all of them, their stories, voices, jokes, connection, etc.. And as someone who watch, it was great pleasure to watch this!

It was like.. after whole year watchinn you all, became my family to say like that, let's finish this year together with this special, before rest of the seasons..

It's just too great!

And watching this, as many others.. Couldn't for million one more time and not to ask myself..

"Why they wouldn't make this in live action ?

Little upgrade story ?"

Imagine Avengers in rescue mission on Asgard, on part with light elves, to rescue Santa Claus who is actually from Asgard, from Loki and Frost Giant ?

Ah yeah, you're right, they already smashed and Asgard and ruined mostly whole Avengers.. And after what, few stories.. Go check for yourself series.. You'll actually realize, how little they gave us..

In the end, I would recommend to watch this after few seasons of animated series universe.. (I would say after first three of Avengers.. Spidey, Agents of SMASH, even Guradians, you can skip before this.. because in Avengers Assemble you'll connect with example Hulk and Thor and their friendship, Iron Man as leader, Cap it's actually best example, through series you can see what character and respect he was, how dedicated, etc.. Captain Marvel I think she joined in third season.. you get it what I wanted to say..) But, you can even on it's own.. But without, and if you watched only movies.. It's gonna be 5 as this raiting.. But if you.. 10, I promise!

I blame Marvel and Disney both.. They should've promote and this, as whole that Universe which they've made with long series, much much more.. Or they didn't wanted, so movies could looked great!

Hahahaha!

Ae ae, some Loki villan came here who just blame.. Go, enjoy! It's holiday season!

Make some cookies and hot cacao and enjoy!

To not feel.. mm I could too when you see Gingerbread Man 's here.. Yeah, Groot couldn't resist too!

Hahahaha!

Being a Marvel fan one thing that always frustrates me is the lack of demographic consistency. The animation can range from 15's down to U's and this one is certainly the latter.

In this adventure aimed directly at the tiddly winks the Avengers must team up with Rocket & Groot to stop Loki from gaining the power of Santa Claus.

Yep, that wasn't a typo. Santa is now part of the Marvel Universe I suppose and essentially has his own Christmas realm full of candy canes & gingerbread men.

As you can imagine the whole thing is very low-key (Pun intended) and childish. The animation is all very colourful, the action scenes are cutesy and the humour is aimed at the young.

The whole Santa Claus thing made it difficult to take any of it seriously, that and the addition of Reptil who Marvel just can't seem to stick with an ethnicity of. He was originally hispanic but I've seen both caucasian and african american incarnations.

Great for your kids, not so good for adults.

The Good:

Well made

The Bad:

Humour is infantile

Reptil's ethnicity has changed repeatedly

Santa, really?

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Ironman has a Stargate
