The most notable superhero movies of the year were Warner Bros.' BVS, Marvel's Captain America 3 and 21st Century Fox's X-Men: Apocalypse. As far as the current situation is concerned, the first two have higher popularity and popularity. Compared with DC's "BVS", Marvel's "Captain America 3" has been ruthlessly crushed both in word of mouth and at the box office. . This may be attributed to the fact that when the film market has expanded over the years, Marvel has taken advantage of the situation to expand its power, and at the same time, because of its acquisition by Disney, it has stronger technical support and a thicker financial backend. At present, the movie style of Marvel Studios is more inclined to entertainment, which is suitable for audiences of almost all ages.
However, this does not mean that the two comics are better or worse. This is just a situation where one trades off the other, similar to the situation in which DC dominated the movie market in the last century and Marvel was dying. If the defeat of "BVS" made DC sigh, then it is estimated that Marvel Pictures would not want to mention its own series of live-action movies that made people laugh and cry before 2000.
The success of "Captain America 3" is not only due to the accumulation of the reputation of more than a dozen movies before, but also due to the excellent shooting and control of the story.
In terms of shooting, "Captain America 3" inherits the style of a large number of sports shots and quick editing in "Captain America 2", and even pseudo-handheld shooting occurs. In the 20-minute airport battle, the interaction of more than ten characters is even more excellent. Each scene and a series of action designs present the characters' unique fighting style and fighting skills. When the two camps collide face to face, the characters show their magical powers in the same shot, which is even more magnificent, comparable to the 360-degree rotating shot of the robot group in "Avengers 2". In the final battle of Siberia, when the captain raised his shield to block Iron Man's lasers, the sad soundtrack and beautiful composition showed the excellent artistic ability of the production team.
The plot of the movie is very difficult to handle. It not only takes the 2006 comic book event "Civil War" as the story script, but also needs to deal with a group of dozens of characters in more than two hours. Not only two The new characters should pave the way for the subsequent Marvel universe plot.
The director and screenwriter are very appropriate in the distribution of roles and scenes. On the premise that the captain is the protagonist, let the Winter Soldier and Iron Man be the second male characters, and the remaining roles only need to be taken over, acting as warriors in the story, and at the same time. Created two distinctive and eye-catching new characters of Black Panther and Spider-Man.
In the processing of the movie's story, the most important thing is not to let the characters and fans really hurt the peace, otherwise it will destroy the subsequent plot line, and secondly, it will cause the loss of the audience. For now, the character trends and story endings in the movie have sparked heated debates on the Internet. If you want to write a movie review, you must be as careful as writing a current review.
The story of the film begins with an attack that caused mass casualties, and it briefly describes the current state of the Avengers and the level of tacit understanding between the team members, and then the camera turns to Iron Man to deliver a student-aiding speech, but he is rejected. People blame, so I hope that I can take responsibility as a superhero. As a result, the Superhero Registration Act appeared, which brought reflections within the Avengers and at the same time made ideological differences finally manifest. After that, the death of the captain's first love and the false accusation of the captain's friend who grew up with him since childhood finally made the captain fall into a predicament of loneliness and pain.
When the movie came to this point, the plot theme was still around the issue of the Superhero Registration Act. The director can still discuss issues that have plagued human society since ancient times, such as regulation and freedom, law and morality, government and knights, and deepen the ideological nature of the plot. But when the captain almost signed an agreement for the Winter Soldier, the director has already let the film fall from the height of discussing the justice and feasibility behind the agreement to the level of family ethics and daily drama disputes.
Such a method of handling is not inappropriate. It has wisely turned to the description of personal emotions and inner turmoil after abandoning the highly ideological debate. The reason why I think this approach is sensible is that the former is not suitable for most audiences who are inclined to be entertained and visual, while the latter can be more easily penetrated. Once you want to have a highly ideological debate in the movie, it will easily lead to one fell swoop and lose everything. A typical example is "BVS", which hopes to solve the problems of "creating gods" and "destroying gods". As for successful examples, there are only a few outstanding films such as "The Dark Knight" and "The Fantasy Drift of Young Pi".
The plot line is mainly divided into three clues, two bright lines and one dark line, which is a typical and clear multi-line narrative technique. The bright line refers to the two plot lines of Iron Man and Captain, and the dark line is naturally Zemo. There are no real villains in this movie, all people are just victims, and then they are consumed by rage and evolve into Avengers.
Not everyone can let go like Black Panther, take Zemo back from the bullet, and send him to prison.
When anger and hatred cover the eyes of a human being, even if he is a superhero, he cannot be exempted from it.
All are pitiful and hateful.
The captain wanted to protect all the partners around him and protect his only contemporary partner, so he deeply hurt the Iron Man who believed in himself.
Iron Man wanted to protect the entire Avengers and innocent humans, and finally was filled with anger when he learned the truth about his parents' deaths.
The Winter Soldier wanted to get rid of his mind control and live independently, but the blood debts he once carried made him mired in memories and repentance, unable to extricate himself. When faced with accountability, he could only calmly say, "I remember all of them. ".
Zemo was implicated in the battle of Sokovia, and all his family lost their lives, so he wanted to let the Avengers heroes try to lose everything, so a beautiful plan broke the trust between the heroes, but couldn't. If you get what you want to commit suicide, you can only spend your life in prison.
No one is the real winner.
Fortunately, Iron Man did not successfully kill the Winter Soldier in a fit of anger, otherwise I am afraid that he will regret it if he thinks about it seriously in the future when his anger is extinguished. He is a conceited genius scientist, but he has given too much and he is tired. From the founding of the alliance to the dissolution of the alliance, I was in a big empty house, helping a paralyzed friend to learn to walk, my parents died, my girlfriend broke up, my girlfriend ran away, and the only one who got back was a scratched one. shield. After receiving the letter from the captain, he had undoubtedly calmed down and thought about it, so he chose to hang up the call for help from the prison.
As for the captain, he is a leader who is born with charisma and clear insight, and never uses force to control his partners, which is why he has repeatedly discovered conspiracies and gained the trust of his partners. He is a legend from the past, an independent spiritual representative, a persistent and kind old man. "I can play like this all day." When he said this, he was the indomitable young man decades ago, as if he had returned to World War II.
Hatred is a devil who will devour everyone, even if that person is a battle-hardened superhero.
The Black Panther accepted the Captain and the Winter Soldier very tolerantly. He wanted to protect not only these two people, but also the peace and relief in his heart.
So instead of so much hatred, it is better to let go.
