Saw it. Liked it. So, this short got everything you can think of - effects, characters, action + charisma. The intro was quite lame, but then things started to fire up. It was pretty good. Plus, the final replica is quite funny. I let you find which it is. :)

This is a 12 minute short film that center around after the events of The Avengers as Agent Blake (Titus Welliver) orders Jasper Sitwell (Maximiliano Hernández) to look for the Chitauri weapon which unfortunately gets into the hands of a young couple Claire (Lizzy Caplan) and Benjamin 'Beenie' Pollock (Jesse Bradford) who use the weapon to rob a bank.Now for a short film they did make it interesting for the Blu Ray release of the Avengers which is how you can watch this film. The film has some good effects and the setting gives us the film of being in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And it does feature a good plot of course it has a mid credit scene as Marvel films are known form. The acting here works well for it plot with some comedy added to the filmSomeone in the music department has a good taste in music since it features "Just what I needed" by The Cars which helps for the film's climax. Overall Marvel One-Shot:Item 47 does make for a interesting bonus film you get on the Blue Ray Copy of The Avengers and it shouldn't be a disappointment if you're a Marvel fan.I give Marvel One-Shot:Item 47 an 7 out of 10

At first I thought this was just another "ride the hype" after The Avengers production but gladly I was mistaken. The story is tight and the runtime 12 min, but I learned today that short is not always a bad thing. The effects are cool and rates high, the acting is really good and the diversity between the persona's of the actors works in harmony. What can I say except it made my cup of coffee in the morning taste a lot better.The only problem is how to fill 10 lines of review of a short very good movie, when there literally ain't nothing to complain about.

If you find an Alien gun thats fallen from the sky, what do you do? Hand it in? Sell it? Learn to use it and be a Superhero? Well, if you are a Hollywood cliché good looking American couple then you figure out how to get the gun working (though no one on the planet has been able to do to highlight how clever this good looking chap is), and then go on an Armed Robbery & Killing spree for easy cash.SO what happens when you are finally captured for multiple armed robberies, murders, assault with a deadly weapon, attempted murder of a S.H.I.E.L.D Agent, wanton destruction and bad acting? A job with S.H.I.E.L.D of course! If these two characters end up being The Wasp and a Henry Pym stand in (with as much effort on this script as the script for the sequel) then I have a feeling that the Avengers may shape up to be as good as Iron Man II.In other-words a monstrosity for anyone with half a brain and a love of the Comics.
