Can you watch superhero movies with your brain? This is a very war-prone issue for a long time. Don't rush to answer this question, because there's another twin question: Do you need a brain to watch a superhero movie?
In my opinion, the answers to these two questions are "can't bring" and "need to" respectively. "Spider-Man: Far From Home" is a good example of my attitude.
As a new starting point for Disney's Marvel, "Spider-Man: Far From Home" successfully leads the "Marvel Universe" built from "Iron Man" to a new place: a magnificent universe. The further improved visual experience and the "Remembrance of Tony Stark" that can't wait to appear every second in the film are reminding every audience: The Marvel Universe is going forward, will you follow?
There are many old fans who choose to continue to follow. Then gave a bad review. And the reason for the bad reviews is that superheroes have become money-making tools.
Compared to nonsensical comments that get a lot of support. I think the biggest problem with this film is Spider-Man's "broken power".
The classic ability of "Peter-tingle" as Spider-Man is inexplicably sometimes not of course acceptable as script requirements and plot arrangements, but in the face of a large number of drones, Spider-Man with the title of "Youth Genius" in this universe cannot remember Using the radar directly shattered the audience's immersion.
To maintain the hard-earned immersion of a superhero movie in a movie theater, audiences have to keep their heads at home. Abandoning all physical rules is just a basic operation, and you must forget all the common sense of the human body, otherwise once you think about the function of the radar and the weight of the warhammer, the whole performance will be boring.
But if you want to feel the charm of the character, the brain is necessary. How else could the audience keep asking the question "Is MJ's name Mary Jane?" Otherwise, how can the audience worry about the fate of Spider-Man after the Easter egg comes out?
The balance between "no brains" and "needs brains" seems to be the choice of the audience, but in the final analysis it is the task of the film production team. This may be the biggest challenge of Marvel's post-Iron Man era.
This article is being written at a time when Sony and Disney have reached a partnership again. It finally gave me a sigh of relief, at least in the next movie called "Spider-Man", audiences can continue to think deeply about the question "Is MJ's name Mary Jane?"
