Avengers: Age of Ultron

Let's start with the fact that "the Age of Ultron" can not be called such fully - the name brings viewers into thinking the antagonist is not strong enough to set his time on the planet Earth. Purely logically would be more come the film name "Week of Ultron." The situation with the headline, in principle, applies to the film - positioned as frustrated covers and excessive in size, but in reality it was not a giant. But not a midget.



On the "Age of Ultron" is best expressed even before the rental director Joss Whedon: "This film is less. It is more personal. " Word Whedon could not be more accurately reflect the whole concept of the sequel to "The Avengers" - the accent in the movie is not on confrontation between good and evil, and on the human aspect of the command supergeroiki. This time the action scene decided to dilute thoughtful dialogue about forbidden love, of responsibility for his creation, and reporting to the powerful. Sometimes it is good for the movie, and sometimes - even the score vice versa.

If the first "Avengers" surprised the world is actually the first successful attempt of cooperation ekstraodinarnyh people for the formation of a powerful ensemble, the "Age of Ultron" shows that this band can not hold out for long - all strong personalities, everyone has an opinion and everyone will defend it. But America 'Era Ultron "does not open - the story just goes on as usual, sometimes making a little unexpected plot twists.

In fact, "The era of Ultron" - rather a passing film from Marvel, not in the worst sense of the word. This is a good, high-quality fiction thriller in which are present all the components of success: boevka exciting, charismatic characters and all this seasoned sauce accompanying humor. The problem is that all of the above, we have seen under other names, for the most part - from the same Marvel.

"Age of Ultron" lacks originality, raisins - the sequel tries to copy his predecessor, focusing almost all of its strengths and not too thinking about making their contribution. The same composition of the team, the same pattern of confrontation between good and evil, the same plot outline. The villain is artificially reduced in the proportions of power - from the concept of Ultron, whose philosophy of destruction for the sake of evolution, among other things, quite original, it would be possible to squeeze out a few more. While we're talking about Marvel.

Purpose "Age of Ultron" - a bridge between the second and third phase. The project is desperately trying to bind to other films of the universe by inserting references to the movies a lot and scenes "not here." Unfortunately, for the most part it looks out of place - failed to organically woven into the narrative elements of the exhibition. If the first "Avengers" were the climax of successful completion of the first act, the "Age of Ultron" serves as a seed for future events, promising to do everything in the future global. Let's say, for the same future "schism Avengers." The bridge itself is quite strong - to a new level supergeroiku he does not show, but the bar keeps confidently. However, another kind of movie we especially do not need - at Marvel to build better at battle than to reveal the characters.
