Two stars for zemo and jw.
1. The literary and martial arts are out of balance, and the literary and drama skills are too poor.
Throughout the six episodes, the proportion of fighting scenes is very small, and there are large sections of literary dramas, especially the first and fifth episodes. Except for the beginning of the first episode, the air battles are all about daily life, and this daily routine is against the next few episodes. The plot promotion of the series doesn't help at all, it just shows that "Oh, they also have a daily life for the Avengers (superheroes)." The fifth episode is about Sam starting to review, constantly practicing shielding to prepare for the finale (and then, no more , the Zemo line came to an abrupt end, and JW also hurried a few words, not paving the way for the finale). Why did the flag smasher fight against the grc (the refugee immigration issue), JW's confusion (the problem left by the military), Sam and Bucky's description of the shield's role in the CA title (what does Captain America mean) and Sharon's character descriptions, all of which are unclear. Don't be so big in your heart, pick one aspect and write it well and dig it out, it won't be so ugly.
2. The roles are ambiguous. character building plane
(1) Karli is a terroristist, and the result is written like a hero
In the third episode Karli bombed the building. I don't know how many people died in it. Anyway, the people on the first floor are gone. In the fourth episode, "Missing" kills JW's teammate Battlestar. If these two points are not enough to define her as a terroristist, then two descriptions of today's finale
The first one was to arrest the senior leaders of GRC as hostages, and then found that the plan was not going well, so she threatened to kill the hostages. The friends beside her were stunned, and they were forced to say one world one people to show their loyalty
In the second description, I found that my plan was obstructed by Bucky, what should I do, then set the hostage car on fire!
Take the hostage and kill the hostage (attempted, and this situation is too ideal, the car burned for ten minutes without blowing up, and the people inside were fine and didn't choke to death, um, the protagonist halo) I need someone If this is not a terroristist, then I really grieve for those who sacrificed their lives in the fight against terrorism. Peace is not easy and some people do not cherish it.
As a result, he was finally touched by someone Sam, and he even gave a white left speech as a typical case, huh? ! Why don't you speak to Benla Lantern? ! If you get along with it, you will have to double standard.
Karli's motivation is that "as a refugee/immigrant, you should not be used as a tool and discarded as a tool". This claim is understandable and reasonable. I came to your country to work hard to make money. Now, is it reasonable? The question is, are these people really working hard? The reality is that refugees from the Middle East are pouring into Europe, and Guangkanda has gathered a large number of black people. It’s a good idea. A group of people eat and wait to die every day. Eviction? It's their fault that people don't sympathize or accept it, and it's completely bastard logic.
Ahem, there are very few descriptions of people like Karli in the play. I can't know why they were expelled. I can only hear them say that they lost their job and lost their home, but what is their so-called home? , what it was like before is completely unclear.
Karli as a representative of this group, their statements and claims deserve attention, but their actions are to use serum to become super soldiers, to use force to solve those in power, to destroy the existing regime, to take back their things, even with the slogan of supremacy" one world, one people". It sounds like a Middle Eastern extremist. The question is, will the world change the way they want by destroying the people in power? If you kill the GRC group of people, then there are the President, Congress, and other civilians. They will feel that it is a threat for people like you to not remove them, and they will increase their efforts to promote the removal. Now that the demands have been resolved, it is naive to think that there will be a new world order by destroying the current high-level grc.
(2) Zemo, the eternal god, was brutally humanized as a tool
I think the best character in the show is Zemo, because his wonderful performance in ep3 and ep4 became a fan of Zemo, the only person in the show who is always calm and has a sharp opinion there hasn't been another Steve Rogers, This sentence comes from Zemo. His disgust for the superhero image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but does he think so blindly? No, people also know that Steve is an exception, and what is even more rare is that he knows that Steve is unattainable, just like Jesus. He learned that the serum had flowed out, what should he do? Kill the pharmaceutical first, and cut off the follow-up at the source (according to the characteristics of the United States, it must have been developed by Zhaoan himself, after all, Zola, the former chief scientist of Human Hydra, can work in Aegis in an open and honest way), and then put the existing bottle of The bottle is crushed and the stock is reduced (the only bottle that was not crushed because JW did not talk about martial arts and engaged in sneak attacks, and was injected by JW himself) This kind of person has full work efficiency, but it is a pity that the screenwriter will throw him away after use, super As soon as the outflow of serum was over, he was kidnapped by Wakanda (before he left, he said that Karli has beyond salvation, the overall situation is still there, and the whole IQ is online).....Zemo is a living tool, but these two The wonderful performance of the episode is enough, and it has already exploded other people.
(3) John Walker, Lost Soldier
The biggest controversy of JW is whether he is worth the shield, whether he is worthy of the title of "Captain America", I think this is what the screenwriter wants to write, but it is really bad.
I didn't like him very much at first, why did he have a shield? Who is he? Later, it turned out that the family was a face project of the American government, and the government appointed it to represent the image of the family. Later, I began to sympathize with him, and he didn't ask for it. He was a soldier from a military background, and he was a soldier with honor. Obedience to orders has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Even if people don't want to, now the leader has come and said that the JW organization has decided that you should come. ca, dare he say no? After he became a ca, he also performed well, but Sam and Bucky were both mad at him every day.
The fourth episode of jw is the most controversial. It is whether the person at the end should be killed. I think he should be killed but not executed in public in the street. I think it is understandable for jw's behavior to be in an emotional explosion (especially the addition of serum), the only person who agrees with him, a comrade-in-arms who is born to death, was beaten to death in person, this can be endured, but calm, military What's this bloody for? Go home and hold the child, but as a ca, he has an image problem. He can't execute people in front of the common people. It's a bit cruel.
But no matter how it develops, it will come to ep5. ZF deprives him of all military rights. As expected of you, throw it away when you use it up. You don’t want anything for the sake of face. Really, this makes people feel that ZF’s coldness is not human at all. It is true that people were beaten to death in the street, but you can change the report and say that this person is a terroristist, they just did a good thing for everyone, otherwise the building will be bombed blahblah again, the more it will be shown when it encounters a downturn You cherish talents, you don't cherish people so much, why should people be grateful to you for your dedication to your duty? Today you are so heartless to me, and tomorrow I am against you, so don't blame me. Sure enough, they quit and switched to val. It is estimated that there will be dramas in the future, right?
Jw has always been confused, he doesn't know if he is worthy, and he also wants to show his best side and let people accept it, but unfortunately it backfires, he is not very worthy, and finally people let go, in In the sixth episode, is it to save these people or to avenge their comrades in arms, people still choose to leave the shield and save people first.
In general, I like jw not because he is a ca or because of the actor himself, jw is an unpleasant character, he is a character with many contradictory disputes, and he is burdened with far more pressure than imagined, I I like him because of his authenticity, his image is flesh and blood, and when he gave up revenge and chose to save people at the end, he had already swept away my dislike of his past, and I hope to see him in the future.
(4) Bucky on the edge
Although the play is called The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, but looking at the whole play, Bucky is really marginalized. He is a vip ob throughout the whole process, and there is no tool for fighting. We Bucky have offended the screenwriter. Why is it so miserable? Well, isn't he worthy? Why? Just zzzq for zzzq so white males don't deserve normal roles?
(5) Sharon
This is the character that confuses me the most. I understand your dissatisfaction, but in episode 6, it was revealed that Sharon is a power broker and the purpose is world domination, which means that it is blackened, but in the end, they act together with the protagonist group. , or the righteous side emmmmmm what does this mean, it's black and white, screenwriter, have you got water in your head? I'm very convinced, you can't write, if you can't write well, don't touch it, just like the Wakanda Dora Guard, you can be a cameo, you can't write well and forcibly write, Sharon's blackening is Without warning, people suddenly turned black, and the finale was revealed. It was too abrupt and had a great impact on the follow-up. There are many viewers who don't watch dramas and only watch movies. Why do you write Sharon, in the end she is black Or white, no matter which one it is, it will always make people look dazed
(6) Sam
Sam is the only protagonist of the show, and all 6 episodes set the stage for his final shield. I think the character of Sam is a bit of a virgin. He can have many good qualities as a new generation of CA, but you shouldn't write him so good or bad. I can understand when negotiating with Karli at the beginning, he should save everyone. People's heart, but, after Karli bombed the building, he even called Sam's sister, threatening the safety of his sister and his sister's daughter's life. Under this threat and blackmail, he was still calm and hopeful to talk to Karli. Salvation, I took it, this virgin white lotus, he is not white, really sorry for my eyes. Not to mention the remarks of the Virgin in the finale. When I watched this passage, I was torn apart. How could you write about a person like this? Mouth is still the kind of Madonna of the White Left. The refugee issue is so easy to say, so why don't you take Karli's group of five or six super soldiers to your sister's house to live with your sister and daughter? ? This is still a minority. When the refugees arrive, they are not just a few, but thousands of people. Can you support them? Because of this episode, I don't have any affection for Sam at all. Steve Rogers has been a 10-year-old. Has anyone said the Virgin Mary? There are dozens of mcu people, including Netflix next door and x people next door, how many people have been told of the Virgin Mary? How can you write characters like this? Ah thank goodness you didn't write me Bucky as a Virgin, really
3. There is a big problem with the budget
Both wandavision and this show have a budget of 200 million US dollars. They have hex magic, big scenes, and a role like vision. What about you, the whole real life, except for the air battle at the beginning and the end of the air battle, the budget can't be seen at all , how do you spend the money? Are you greedy? With so much money, do you deserve this kind of shitty drama? Don't talk about Netflix's street heroes, just say that they are the same small broken shields in your family, they are poor, your budget for a drama is more than others' for several seasons, the logic of their shooting is online, the plot is brilliant, and the characters are impressive and full of arcs. Do you have one in this play?
Although there are also movies that don’t have a lot of plot, but the popcorn that is really cool to watch, the works that are made with money (the action movies of Bangbei), you make a drama with 200 million US dollars, and make more action scenes and scenes, although I didn't like the plot, but this scene can add points and satisfy people, but no, the fighting is weak and the combat power is reduced. Are you invited?
4. Postscript
I really hope that wandavision is not a flash in the pan, and I also hope that MCU's dramas can be as wonderful as movies. If you like MCU, like characters, like actors, you don't have to blindly deify every work. This drama is below the pass line. For products, normal grading and discussion are much better for blowing the work to the sky. Works with bad reputation will naturally make high-level people vigilant and use this group of people with caution. Destructive future.
Hope the next drama Loki can look forward to it!
