hmmmm

Civil War isnt out here in New Zealand till next Wednesday but I highly doubt in my mind that this will be the best superhero movie ever as The Dark Knight is just in league in its own that no superhero movie has ever come close to infact Christopher Nolans Dark Knight Trilogy is the epitome of super hero movies. Marvel hasnt come anywhere close to that, though I will say The Winter Soldier is bloody brilliant. So I will be interested to see if Civil War is anywhere near that level.

So, TC, you haven't noticed anything wrong with the plot? All solid?

For me the good:

Black panther, spidey, bucky and robert downey jr. Also Scarlett it's too damn hot.

The bad:

Everything else

I saw it last night and was honestly crushingly disappointed. I can see why the general audience would enjoy it, but for me, knowing the actual Civil War storyline this was quite sad.

The whole movie is a damn jokefest, with only brief moments of seriousness sprinkled in.

The central conflict builds around Bucky, which is stupid, because he's simply not significant enough to have earth's heroes go to war over him.

Captain America's team is honestly vastly outmatched, but are made OP because hey it's a Cap movie, so he needs to look good. The only true threat on his team, Scarlett Witch, is for some reason left alone during the entire airport fight so she can assist every single member of his team without interference. Vision probably should be fighting her, but instead he's off screen being useless. At this point I'm pretty sure his character was created solely to die in Infinity War, since Marvel refuses to kill anyone of any real import.

Captain America comes across as a huge fucking asshole in this entire movie. He considers himself above the United Nations, is willing to beat on half his friends and make the other half outlaws to free Bucky (despite the fact that he himself knows he's a danger to others), and worst of all knows a little something major spoilery I won't mention that is absolutely unforgivable to not tell your friend. He's just a selfish, arrogant douche in pretty much the whole movie.

The villain, which they didn't even need to have, because the whole point of the Civil War story is two opposing ideologies between heroes, is once again weak, pointless, and cliche. Plus his "plan" relies entirely on random luck.



I have to say, as a whole I'm getting fed up with Marvel's movies now. They just treat everything like a giant joke. These are supposed to be their big guns, with real stakes on the line, and yet a single episode of their "Street level" heroes in their Netflix shows feels like it has 100x more important shit going on. I mean it's perfectly fine, great even, to have those properties like Guardians of the Galaxy, Spiderman, and Antman where things are more light-hearted and the overall tone is pretty funny. It makes sense for those characters. But you can't just throw a movie like Civil War on screen and have everyone aside from Black Panther crack one liners every two minutes and act like it's all just a big game to everyone. It's just stupid.

 

And that's the very reason I won't be watching it. The civil war comics arch was one of the best story arcs in comics and it's been destroyed in the film. It's put me off the marvel universe all together. 

 

Looks like my comic book adaptation fix will now come from Netflix, the Flash and Dredd (if it gets a sequel or series).

6,5/10

This movie is the reason why super heroes movies will never be taken seriously, it just doesnt give a shit about making a good movie.

You can be entertaining and good at the same time, but CW chose to be only the first.

The movie is so stupid but sympathic ( black panther first scenes saved the movie, though it's sad to introduce him in this movie )


And i dont know how anyone who saw the Spidermans of Raimi could make a thread like this.

Oh and, so clever to trick all the fans by making them think there is a civil war whereas this movie is only Captain America : Winter Soldier Part 2. ( who got the worst idea in the world to make 2 movies all about one of the most boring character in the movies ?)

They really take their fans for fools.

You are hilarious. Come on, man, not every movie needs to be dour and devoid of soul like Batman v Superman. This movie was immensely serious with quips in it to maintain a sense of levity. These people are friends, not enemies. 

 

They dialed back the 'war' tones because they chise to do a more personal story. it works right in accordance to the world that had been created with th MCU. This is an adaptation, not meant to be a panel for panel recreation. 

 

This movie is good on ts own terms, as it should be.

Good movie. Best superhero movie ever made? Not in my opinion at least. I do wish the fantastic 4 and x men were there, but I can understand them not being there considering they're not at liberty to use them freely in the movies. Spiderman 2 is still my favorite superhero movie of all time. Really enjoyed new Spidey and Black Panther, can't wait for their standalone movies!
