Watched it last night. Winter Soldier was Marvel's Dark Knight. Civil War is its Empire Strikes Back. Movie was ILL.
DC is definitely going to be crying in the car for the next few months.
this is going to sound cliche...but I think after
THIS movie this description will be used
MUCH more sparingly..
It was a COMIC BOOK brought to life.
and masterfully written and directed.
EVERYTHING made SENSE!
looked fantastic.
every single solitary actor was used perfectly didn't mater if it was a 3 minute scene waiting for an elevator or a 10 minute fight sequence...
EVERYONE had something to do.
no one was wasted everyone had an arch, story lines resolved and future possibilities.
It made me want to see stand alone films on EVERY character,,,every single one.
And Black Panther?
Look I was unsure on many levels...but this is it. Be happy Be proud.
And honestly I can't believe I'm saying this but if the Russo Brothers turn around and say they want to either write direct or produce the fiull length Black Panther feature?
I aint got no issues with them white boys doing it...because I want the BEST depiction of T'challa point blank period.
this man was REGAL the voice the way he stood the fight scenes the attitude the intelligence and the fine AZZ body guards!
more on that later...
Oh and just a small aside...BEST DEPICTION OF PETER PARKER EVER....
Fox and Sony need to just give it up NOW and I mean RIGHT now.
Actually if it wasn't for the brilliance of Deadpool I would say we should boycott all Marvel movies NOT under the official Disney banner.
But this movie delivers...and keeps delivering. People DID NOT want to leave the theater, I would have actually watched it again right there cause I KNOW I missed stuff.
I don't think I watched the same movie in theater since maybe Malcom X.
I WILL see this again, in the theater.
sidebar: Go see this in the theater I don't care if you sneak in, no bootlegs for your first time viewings (unless its to check if its OK for the kids) otherwise don't do it to yourself.
ANYONE who sh*ts on it ...immediately know they cannot be trusted.
Its not perfect...nope.
But damnit I wouldn't want it to be. It was a hell of time and made me feel like a damn kid again
btw...Brooklyn keeps on taking it.
