Based on Marvel Comics characters
Cast: Jeremy Renner, Steve Zahn, Katherine Langford, Simon Pegg, Adrianne Palicki, Vincent Piazza, Brian Thompson, Linda Cardellini, Nick Blood, Tempestt Bledsoe, Rob Morgan, Anthony Mackie

Reaction: While seemingly low for a Marvel movie, it is still ranks ahead of The Incredible Hulk and Captain America: The First Avenger in terms of box office gross, and it is not far behind Ant-Man and Thor. After the rocky box office of Season 4, it is nice to start a season off with a pretty solid profit.


"It's worth the ticket to just finally see Hawkeye get his own movie - even if they do saddle him with a mostly uninteresting gang of sidekicks. Jeremy Renner excels as the character and appears to giving it his all." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com

 "Writer Jack Ryder's insistence on including actors and characters from the Marvel television series hinders the scale of his Marvel projects. Need I mention Inhumans? While Palicki is fine, Nick Blood and Rob Morgan feel very out of place in a production of this size."  - Eric Marsh, Denver Post


"Hawkeye, even moreseo than other Marvel films, is sorely lacking in the villain department. Simon Pegg is completely wasted as the villainous scientist "Egghead" whose plans and motivations are pretty vague. As side villains, Brian Thompson just looks old and Vincent Piazza, while talented, looks particularly unimposing." - Ben Mazur, SciFiNow
