The first time I heard the collaboration of the four street heroes, I only had two words: "Looking forward". When I finally got the resources, I naturally couldn't wait to finish it. Due to the high expectations, it was a little far from what I imagined after reading it, but it is undeniable. This is the real formation of the Marvel TV universe, and it is also a real linkage of Chaoying in the TV series (Legend of Tomorrow's unwary kind of forget it...).
Let's talk about a few street heroes: Daredevil, Jessica, Iron Fist, Luke. Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter can be said to be testing the waters on the small screen. Obviously, under the first-hand suppression of the Flash, Green Arrow and Gotham, the predecessors of DC's small screen next door, the response of the two dramas was very poor. Carter was cut directly... The reason is very simple, the Flash Green Arrow is a half idol drama half super British drama, the plot is very watery, and it has been sprayed all the time, but it has retained a lot of viewers who watch stunts and watch handsome guys and beauties, and it has been very successful. ; Gotham is a suspense drama that plays well and is very successful. Repeating their route like the agents of SHIELD, the stunt is not as deep as the next door, and the failure is inevitable.
However, when the four street heroes came out, it was different. With Marvel's unique style of "large-scale, surreal, dark, and street", especially the DD who took the lead, it was very successful. It softened, and the screenwriter didn't care about it). It can be seen from Marvel's ambition that linkage is essential.
The first three episodes talked about how four people got together. The beginning was very boring. When all the clues pointed to the "Midtown Circle", it brought the first four-person team to fight mobs. At this moment, Marvel did it again. To what others can't do, just like the Avengers back then, after all, the Green Arrow and The Flash next door are just a single episode of linked small fights to fight for ratings. The first linkage of street heroes is enough to make Marvel fans climax.
Needless to say, the level of fighting scenes, the thrill of punching to the flesh is maintained, the weaker iron fist is also brought up, and the mobs will also use guns (however, there is a bug like Luke). There are also many bloody episodes. Marvel has broken his hand twice and broken his head twice...
There will be conflicts after getting together. Although it is a routine, it also depends on whether the shooting is good or not. The screenwriter is very good at character setting. After all, it is really difficult to maintain the screenplay rate of each person without breaking the personal characteristics of the script. For example, "Reunion 2" appeared in the year when the image of individual characters was blurred. Mistake. In this drama, the contradictions between the characters are simple and rude without being hypocritical, and the character settings will not collapse, just like we know that JJ will definitely quit out of trouble, but will be pulled back by clues; Luke definitely doesn't want to move Rough, but forced to join for the answer; Tekken is the main line, needless to say; DD is for Erica, needless to say; Tekken is impulsive, Luke is mature, and the two must have conflicts; Stick likes simplicity and rudeness, and uses any means to directly deal with the troubles. , will conflict with the four and so on. These are all natural occurrences, and conflicts will naturally be resolved. For example, Stick lost his life due to his own recklessness. These are all smooth, reasonable and not deliberate, and each person's image will naturally stand up to varying degrees.
However, while smooth in the portrayal of the four and stick, the portrayal of the villain is far-fetched. I'm not a comic book party, I don't know what's going on with the heads of the Hand Hehui, but when I see their intrigue and intrigue, and they burst out pretending words from time to time, I think these are the middle-aged patients. Big brother's courage, so it is doomed to fail... Erica is also a very strange existence, she is completely emotional like a primary school student. It's a pity that the villains have been portrayed so well by Ye et al. Their domineering duality and entanglement have not continued in the villains of this show... In addition, in addition to Tekken and Luke's pony, there are also foggy, the role of the group of relatives and friends has not been brought into play or portrayed very much, but it does not hurt, the screenwriter is also incapable of taking into account the small roles...
The screenwriter is weak in playing suspense, so there are not many suspense clues in this film, and it doesn't cost much, but the architect and his piano are quite impressive.
The last part is the big battle, almost the whole episode is played, there are not many impressive but there are a few: the 360-degree long-lens blockbuster is the visual sense; JJ jumps and pulls the elevator; DD finally has a heads-up with Erica. In the end, DD and Erica were buried together, and finally can be together forever. The three people in front of the police station office came back as they wished, and finally settled on the empty door. Lawyer Ma did not appear. At that moment, it was very emotional and reluctant, and I couldn't help but think of the last episode of Iron Man in the Avengers who died alone. Of course, such a good character won't die like this, and it's an exaggeration to dig it out in the end, but it's a last resort to make a hole, after all, it's a routine, and Iron Man is not convenient...
As a superhero TV series, it's not bad to reach this level. You can't watch it as a fast-paced cool movie like Prison Break and Super 8, or as a slow-paced drama like Breaking Bad. Compared with the DC next door, Wei is indeed a lot weaker on the small screen, but the creation of a universe has been completed in this way. A complete worldview exists. The plot of this drama is also relatively mediocre, but it is also a victory for Marvel. This drama is also a milestone in the universe and deserves a high score. After all, watching the high-scoring Fulian now is not just an explosion on the level line. A work of corn?
