I was kind of being nice by leaving out the hackneyed plot device: robot built to protect humanity does so by eradicating/enslaving/oppressing them
So you think the plots to books, tv shows and movies like Terminator, Battlestar Galactica, 2001: Space Odyssey, I Robot are all hackneyed too?
AI turning against it's creator and the people it's supposed to protect is a pretty common trope in fiction.

It's actually a good plot device which is why it's been used so often
Having stark create ultron was also a good idea as there is a lot that can happen between the characters, but ultimately there isn't
It was a turn your brain off kind of movie, and that's fine, but with the AI plot and a villain of such large scope (the eradication of mankind) I just think it should've been more than a 2 hour action sequence
The action scenes are good (I really think the opening sequence is the most satisfying)
This lacking of subtext doesn't weigh on the movie, it just could've been done better in my opinion
The only 2 things that detracted from the movie for me were the big ones
Action was exhausting at times
Iron man is a taint
