On its opening day on 4th May, Marvel's The Avengers achieved the 2nd best all-time opening at US$80.5 million in US and Canadian cinemas. This was just behind "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" which had a US$91.1 million first day opening at the box office. Noting that the film opened slightly earlier in other countries worldwide, it has reached US$414.8 million as of 4 May.

The American superhero blockbuster produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures was also well received by worldwide critics for its powerful storyline and special effects. The film also appears to receive much praise by local cinema-goers.

Marvel's The Avengers opened in Singapore cinemas on 1 May, in IMAX, 3D and conventional 2D theatres.
