Nick Fury, Furious Over Avengers Criticism, Takes To Twitter

The Avengers movie is out and everyone is dying to see it, but New York Times film critic, A.O. Scott has a review that may surprise you. He not only roundly criticizes the movie, he takes aim at the folks going to see it too.

Well, one person reading the review, Samuel L. Jackson (who plays Nick Fury in the Avengers), isn’t having it. And he took to Twitter to stir things up.

A.O. Scott was pretty cutting in his criticism of the movie, telling readers that “the light, amusing bits cannot overcome the grinding, hectic emptiness” of the rest of the film.
