Although this film is somewhat different from what I thought, it is very worth watching as a whole. It can even be said that this film is the most satisfying imported live-action film so far this year, far better than last year's "Avengers 2" " and "Super Bat" more than a month ago.
As a commercial blockbuster, the handling of the fight scenes in the film also reflects the extraordinary skills of the Russell brothers. Especially in the airport battle, 12 main characters exist at the same time, and the actors and cameras move very well, allowing the audience to clearly understand and judge the status of all parties on the field, which is very rare.
In addition, as a two-and-a-half-hour feature film that tests the audience's patience, being able to control the rhythm is the key to the success of the film. The film is basically arranged according to the structure of "playing drama - literary drama - fighting drama - literary drama". There are many events in fighting dramas, there are many movements in the screen, and the rhythm is fast; indoor plots, character conversations belong to literary dramas, there are relatively few events, less movement in the picture, less changes in sound and music, and slow rhythm, but literary dramas often It is the key to promoting the development of the plot, so the attraction to the audience has not been reduced. When the audience feels that the literary drama is a bit long and boring, the fighting drama will appear at the right time. This dynamic and static transition in the structure of the film controls the audience's attention well, thereby helping the audience to better integrate into the plot.
Of course, as a comic film, the problem of a slightly weak plot still exists, but compared with "Super Bat" more than a month ago, it has done well enough. Frankly speaking, "Super Bat" spent more than an hour explaining the reasons, but I still didn't fully understand what the root cause of the two big names started fighting. Some people may say that it is because you haven't read the original comics, so you can't understand it. First of all, I am usually busy with work and have no time to read the original DC comics. Secondly, I haven't read Marvel's comics either, I'm just a fan and have seen all the movies in the "Reunion" series. But the reason for the war in this film is very clear, basically you can understand it at a glance.
As the saying goes: freezing three feet is not a day's cold. In the previous "Reunion" series of movies, there was a conflict between Captain America and Iron Man. The Sokovia Act and the Winter Soldier incident were just the fuse. Even without these two incidents, the two would have had a fight. Before I watched the film, I supported Captain America, but after watching it, I was shaken. The views of both sides in the film are clearly described. Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages. There is no right or wrong, just different positions. In the end, the US team and the Winter Soldier teamed up to fight Iron Man, which was very good-looking, but also very worrying.
Here I have to give a thumbs up to the Russo brothers. Their directing style is completely different from Joss Whedon (the director of Avengers 1 and Avengers 2). The latter's directing style is completely a high-level visual style, with heroic characters on top. The former is approachable. Whether it is "Captain 2" or "Captain 3", the advantages and disadvantages of several main characters are very obvious. It seems that people feel that they are people who live by our side. There is no sense of distance. Appears very kind.
Briefly comment on a few characters: The most important ones are Iron Man, Captain America and the Winter Soldier. Uncle Downey gave his best acting performance in recent years. His performance is actually layered. In comparison, the acting skills of Chris Evans and 384 are much inferior, but I think It's not surprising, after all, Uncle Downey is much richer than the other two in both acting experience and life experience. Scarlet Witch, Widow Sister and Agent 13 are in charge of beauty, Spider-Man and Ant-Man are in charge of funny, Hawkeye is pure soy sauce, and Black Panther is the highlight.
Okay, enough good things to say. Finally, let's talk about the shortcomings of the film. Compared with "Captain America 2", the rhythm of this film is obviously slower. What surprised me is that this film actually has a villain, and it's not the kind of big villain that is very powerful, but a villain who only uses his brain and does not do anything. Personally, I think he should be a loyal supporter of Comrade Lenin, because his existence is a good interpretation of the famous saying of Comrade Lenin: "A fortress is the easiest to conquer from the inside".
