'Avengers' smashes records, iReporters' expectationsThe star-studded "Avengers" cast must be celebrating, as the superhero blockbuster brought in over $200 million at the box office over the weekend. Surely chump change to someone like Tony Stark, but “The Avengers” definitely jump-started this season’s summer movie lineup, not to mention nabbing the title of highest grossing domestic release of all time.

According to Cinemascore, many moviegoers felt like Zennie Abraham from Oakland, California, who delivered a sea of compliments in his iReport review. “Frame by frame, we see that these characters are ordinary people with extraordinary powers,” he said. “In the movie, we feel like we are getting to know the characters as much as you do in the comic books, and because of that you have a great story.”
