"Getting this power will make the good better and the bad worse" by Dr. Abraham Erskine. The
story is told in the World War II era, a name As a young man of Stephen Rogers (Chris Ivan), although he was frail and sick from a young age, he was full of unparalleled courage. As a student of fine arts, he has always hoped to join the military and do his best for the country, but because of his physique, he has been repeatedly rejected by the conscription. Until one time, Dr. Abraham (Stanley Tucci) saw his inner sense of justice, so he invited Stephen to participate in his super soldier experiment. After a period of training and examinations, Stephen, who was not optimistic, made several outstanding performances and was accepted by Chief Peggy Carter (Hayley Atworth) and General Philip (Tommy Lee Jones). .. This
is not the first time Captain America has been on the big screen. Albert Penn was put on the big screen in 1990. What is strange is that this film was a joint venture between the United Kingdom and Yugoslavia, and it only sold more than 10,000. Very few people have ever seen it. Until this time, Paramount's Avengers project finally allowed Captain America to stand up on the big screen. Compared to Taiwan's low profile, the role of Captain America is actually very lofty in American comics. If the representative of DC is Superman, corresponding to Marvel, Captain America is definitely the best candidate. And bearing the name of the United States, the meaning of his existence is not just a superman character, but also a certain spirit and ideal.
Compared to Tony Stark's bohemian, or Thor's ecstasy, Captain America Steven Rogers is like a model student. He has always had a belief in justice, even when he has no superpowers, as long as he sees injustice happen, he will step forward desperately. In personality, you can see that he is different from other heroes. Although he has no dazzling superpowers, what he has always been loved by comics fans is his upright character. Therefore, this movie is different from the previous emphasis on sound and light effects. Compared with other Avengers series movies, it has added a lot of ink in the presentation of the plot.
However, after the filming of heroes of the American comics began to become popular, more and more such movies have sprung up. Every film company has endless ways to put comic characters on the big screen one by one. These characters are backed by a large number of comic fans. It brings obvious benefits at the box office, but because it is too frequent, this kind of film gradually becomes a little bit patterned, and therefore gradually loses the hot spot of the plot. After watching the big director Nolan’s Batman series and the hot-selling "X-Men: First Class" a while ago, the plot of Captain America is much more straightforward than the above two, and the plot is still inseparable. The formula can be regarded as a small shortcoming of this movie.
Captain America and other Superman characters, in addition to their abilities are different from other hero characters, the background of the story is also very different from other character settings. In the past, the superman hero character remakes in the past has done a lot of editing in the plot and the comic story. Because of the different backgrounds of the times, and the beauty is actually very current affairs, in order to make the movie connect with modern times, it is not just about the appearance. There will be no small changes even in many basic settings. Compared with other heroes, Captain America has an advantage in the story, so after watching the entire movie, the movie "Captain America" is considered the most loyal to the original movie in the Avengers series. For those who are interested, please refer to the article I wrote before: Talk: Who is "Captain America"??, I will not write more about the comics here.
On the whole, the movie is said to be a heroic movie, but it is more inclined to a combination of war movies and adventure movies. Because of the laying out of the Avengers, the movie feels a little tied in the plot. In the past, movies were released first, and then released prequels or sequels one after another. The Avengers series is going the other way, deliberately shaping each of its heroes first, and then an unprecedented collection. After "Invincible Hulk", slowly there is a kind of movie subject is just a prologue, the real The focus is only on the small part of the official release at the end of the movie. From the point of view of the movie box office, this strategy is successful, but I am also glad that this is the last one, because no matter what, I will still buy a ticket to enter the venue...
