It probably is in terms of its merits as a movie. The action and directing is better (way better fights imo) and it still has the great humor and character interactions as the first one. All the characters have a chance to shine including the new ones, which is hella impressive. Ultron is a good villain, or at least he's as good as Loki was imo.
Didn't feel the same sense of excitement I did for the 1st though, to be expected really. The first Avengers was an unprecedented achievement and milestone and this was pretty much more at the same level then the next step, if that makes sense.

SEe I thought there would be more excitement for this one PRECISELY because the first one was such a blockbuster. And with Ultron, all I'm going to be seeing is Raymond Reddington.

TFU was over exaggerated in the Force department, but it was average Star Wars everywhere else, honestly. Great's a little much, but I won't fault someone for liking it.
Ya know, now that I think on it, what exactly was over exaggerated in TFU that wasn't shown elsewhere?
Crushing/moving Starfighters? Vader's done that in comics and I'm sure elsewhere, others have manipulated such things of similar size.
Force blasting away groups of men? That's been done too.
Taking on small armies? That's been done.
Force Lighting multiple guys? Been done.
I mean the only exaggeration I could see, is moving the ISD but even that I could see not being too exaggerated considering it's not like Galen did it with ease.

When a loser like Kota could collapse a space station and where someone entered the atmosphere from orbit while disintegrating a frigate.
Kota was noted as a Jedi Master from the Clone Wars and showed some pretty nice Force ability prior to that feat and it was just the command center part, not the whole station.
You got me on that, but then is that really any different to someone draining entire planets? Or creating Force Wormholes that can destroy fleets?
Or one shotting an entire army? So on, I mean there are other huge Force feats out there.

Because that's better? Kota is not on the level of several Force users in any other setting that would struggle to reproduce anything similar.Yes, extremely. It's also not like KotOR and DE aren't also giant messes just because TFU is.
Going through waves of goons isn't comparable to the amount of concentration, energy, and focus it would take to fall through the atmosphere and live. None of it is.
Never said he was on the level on other Force Users, what I'm saying is how does his showings make TFU exaggerated.
The only one that is an exaggeration is as you said the Atmospheric feat, but let's not ignore that there are other ridiculous Force feats out there
