I was hoping for a surprise Spidey cameo. Something like Tony meeting Pete and taking interest in him after seeing how brilliant he is. Would've been a great set up for CW. Sadly nothing. There is a fake AOU after credit scene on youtube with Spidey in it and it's wonderfully done. It was so good that Marvel actually had to make a statement and say it's fake. At least that's what I heard.
I'll give a brief review:
Spoiler:
Overall I liked the film. My initial critiques are as follows:1) Once again, character power levels are off...Hulk losing to Hulkbuster Iron man is a shame. Now, general public will think that Iron Man> Hulk>Thor...which is just lame. Granted Iron man got to cut loose and Thor was just trying to reason with Hulk in their "Fight"...but still, it was annoying...fight was cool though.
2)Ultron was not really developed enough for my taste. I didn't mind his "plan" at all, and as was previously mentioned; the only reason he didn't just nuke the globe right away was because of Jarvis/Vision. But for a movie that is named after him, I found his origin and screen time very lacking. While he was on the screen, he was good, and Spader does a great job with the VO, but....yah, I hope we will see more Ultron in the future.
3)Whedon likes to take Thor out of the picture so much it's worse than the comics...In fact, Thor's only really good showings in the movies so far were Thor 1 and some of Avengers 1 (near the end) Other than that, he's been a colossal disappointment in terms of being close to his actual power levels. Hulk wasn't as good the second time around either..... All I know is that they both need to step up their game if they want to beat Thanos....
There are other minor quibbles but to me those were my main issues. Like I said, I really enjoyed it. I'd say my gut reaction after 1 viewing is probably an 8-8.5 / 10. Will need to watch it several more times.

Spoiler:
I share all your critique especially about Thor and Hulk, but after watching it twice I honestly can't give this movie more than 7/10 personally. Whilst I give Avengers 1 10/10.I just feel like both Thor and Hulk were underused. Thor's true power could have (and should have) been shown in an Epic 1 v 1 against Vibranium Ultorn at the end. Hulk vs Hulkbuster was used to market the movie, but aside from that Hulk didn't do much Imo. Which is quite surprising given he doesn't even have his own solo movies. Plus yeah IM Hulkbuster getting the final smack down on Hulk gets a big 👇 from me.
This movie has some Great action sequences and special effects. Probably the best in any superhero movie to date. But I can't help but feel it relied on that too much.
Just my view anyway

I would ask why, but I don't want the movie spoiled. Then again, the Tomato Meter and posts such as yours tell me it's already spoiled. At this point, I just hope I like it. If not, then I hope the Russo brothers can do a better job and all the other movies make up for it (even the DC ones).

In short, shitty movie is a shitty movie.
