Dream team Finally, there was the unification of superheroes in one film, in one team, in the form of an epic and rooftop blockbuster, full of stunning action and incredibly exciting special effects! Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man and others in one picture, a real dream team that staged the most stunning spectacle in the history of cinema!
The most important comic film managed in his little two hours to enter into the plot properly all the characters, successfully paying attention to everyone in the team, without pushing anyone to the background, quarrel and unite superheroes among themselves, repeatedly joke and arrange amazingly bright dramatic scenes in chic dialogues and acting emotions, and jumping from action to action leave in memory the most grandiose battle scenes, which are drawn to watch again and again!
The serial approach of Joss Whedon helped to reveal all the characters, so that each character grabbed a three-dimensional piece of such a delightful pie. Thin bridges stretch in the plot of references to the past of the characters and previous solo paintings. Although now does not have so many references to other heroes.
But rather curiously mention the past of Black Widow and Hawkeye, about which it would be possible to shoot a separate solo film, besides the chemistry between the characters Johansson and Renner turned out amazing, even in action episodes, regularly pleasing excellent cross-cutting, in parallel combining several battle actions.
Whedon managed what neither the creators of the X-Men, nor even the authors of the Fantastic Four, he managed to single out each character not only brightly and spectacularly, but also interested in a personal story, plunge into the past and look into the future with interest. So don’t blame the film on fans who are angry at the absence of Ant-Man or Wasp or anyone else. The current team has maintained a balance of attention on each participant, and at the same time the film still manages to fill with secondary characters like Agent Coulson or Maria Hill, although the most spectacular looks an alien ally of Locky, promising him an army.
Excellent progress, as the characters, and Iron Man, again brilliantly and charismatically played by Robert Downey Jr., very colorfully manifested himself, both for the finale and in the “human” episodes with Pepper, and Captain America, showing ingenuity and courage, and brutal Thor, acting out the most interesting relationship with the team and interaction with the rest of the characters. Just as much transformed Locky, jumping far ahead of the image of “Thor”, becoming a truly spectacular villain! Worthy that because of him, literally all superheroes united in a well-coordinated team, despite their eternal conflicts.
The film, in general, is just that and good that the team game of his characters only learn, and can not form a single tandem. What Banner, that Tony Stark regularly enter into conflicts and verbal skirmishes with Captain America and Nick Fury, who received this time much more screen time and even action scenes.
Unprecedented beauty camera work surpasses everything seen before! Plastic and smooth camera in constant motion deftly slides behind the characters, diving deep into the screen action, and the final review of a large-scale battle with the transition from one hero to another without a single editing glue and is the most stunning spectacle ever demonstrated on the screen! The final titles, made with stunning quality and clarity of images, instead of the usual cartoon animation for such moments, deserve similar praise. Moreover, the traditional bonus episode is located immediately after them, so you do not need to wait for the very end of the final credits.
Amazingly, the film combines chic humor (both in phrases and actions - episodes with Loki and Thor after the fall, with the Hulk and Loki in the final part, for example) with amazing dramatic content (what is at least the dialogue of Black Widow with Loki about her past, with a grand final twist to its ending!), rushing from seriousness to humor and back, with the trademark for Hollywood American pathos and epic scope! The world has never seen such a quality of a cinema comic, both in the plot part and in graphic entertainment!
“The Avengers” is well thought out from beginning to end, surpassing everything previously seen in this genre, introducing so many characters into a coherent and exciting story! The action does not keep itself waiting, and the intensity of drama and acting work allow even with an abundance of action to tell a story. Each of the central actors is given to the maximum, each works out his character in all the details, and a large budget allows you to reveal the Avengers team also in terms of the superpowers of each participant. Bruce, for example, twice for the film turns to the Hulk, and the forest battle of Iron Man with Thor is generally the main advantage of the first half of the film. Not missed and the moment with “betrayal”, and the conflict of views of Stark and Rogers, various small details are not rarely very much add to the impressions of viewing.
Chitauri's army is nobly destroying New York, abundantly receiving from avenging such an invasion of Earth's superheroes, arranging a cool feast of high-quality special effects, and striking the imagination with the appearance of unnamed mechanical Leviathan. All this under the appropriate pompous music, perfectly fits into the entourage and designs scenes with even greater sensuality. All superheroes in one picture - what could be cooler?
The opening film of the initial action scene on the basis of S.H.I.E.L.D. (including with a falling helicopter!) immediately hints that you will not be bored here, and further from his promises does not retreat. Captain America bravely protects civilians from the encroachments of the main villain on their lives, Locky, in turn, intimidates and actively uses illusions, cunningly deceiving the heroes over and over again with the dexterity of his skillful tricks.
Of course, there could be more participants in the team, and the number of villains could be increased, but with such thoughts, you simply believe that further sequels of “The Avengers” will be able to surpass even such a large-scale and magnificent film, which in a swoop threw off the pedestals of previously released paintings and triumphantly exalted, as the main event of the entertainment industry.
Especially interesting were the fights between the characters, almost regularly unfolding in parallel. And brilliantly made installation in the most successful way alternates scenes of confrontations. And at the same time, all without excessive flickering, and always in good angles and beautiful expressive shooting, that such battles want to watch more and more, the good they are presented here in a really wide variety!
“The Avengers” can be safely called a reference movie comic, perfectly made and amazingly beautifully shot. It amazes the imagination with the quantity and quality of saturated screen action, perfectly combines all the characters, and dividing and combining them, with all the features and traits of the characters. Joss Whedon managed to make the main entertainment movie of Hollywood and the most grandiose comic film in the history of cinema!
