Alan: Hi, Moira! Long time no see. How are you?
Moira: Oh, hi, Alan! It’s good to see you. I am fine, thank you. How about you?
Alan: I am fine too, thanks. What have you been doing recently?
Moira: Well, I’ve been catching up on some sleep lately. I feel very tired at the end of the academic year, so I do need some time to relax. What about you?
Alan: The same. Still, I have started to watch some films from my list. You know I love watching films, but I am always so busy during the academic year, I never have time to watch them all.
Moira: What is the last film you watched?
Alan: I watched «The Avengers» yesterday. Have you watched it?
Moira: No, I am afraid I haven’t. I think it is based on the Marvel comic books, am I right?
Alan: Yes, you are. It’s an action film which brings together several famous characters from these books, and these characters are played by some well-known actors.
Moira: That must be exciting indeed. Can you tell me about the film’s plot?
Alan: Well, the plot is very predictable. There is a villain who wants to take control of Earth and has an army of aliens to help him. The Avengers must stop his evil plans and save the planet.
Moira: Usually superheroes work alone. I guess it is not easy for them to work as a team.
Alan: Yes, they find that learning to work as a team is not easy, but it is the only way to save the planet. In my opinion, the main characters and the relationships between them are really convincing and more developed than in other action films. Their arguments and misunderstandings, as they try to work together, are very entertaining.
Moira: I love funny films. Is this one funny?
Alan: The script is humorous. I have never laughed so much while watching an action film. The funny scenes are very memorable, at least for me.
Moira: Does this film have any special effects?
Alan: Of course. The special effects are very impressive, and the action scenes are spectacular, especially the final battle.
Moira: I would love to see this film too. It’s not to be missed.
Alan: I can lend you my DVD if you wish. Come to my place tonight, you can have it as long as you wish. I don’t think I will watch the film again in the near future.
Moira: You’re a star, Alan! Thanks a lot. I think I will watch it with my brother. He likes such films very much. We’ll get some popcorn and imagine we’re at the cinema.
Alan: You’re always welcome, Moira. See you tonight then!
